Truncated Infinitesimal Shifts, Spectral Operators and Quantized Universality of the Riemann Zeta Function

Hafedh Herichi, Michel L. Lapidus (2014)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

We survey some of the universality properties of the Riemann zeta function ζ ( s ) and then explain how to obtain a natural quantization of Voronin’s universality theorem (and of its various extensions). Our work builds on the theory of complex fractal dimensions for fractal strings developed by the second author and M. van Frankenhuijsen in [60]. It also makes an essential use of the functional analytic framework developed by the authors in [25] for rigorously studying the spectral operator 𝔞 (mapping...

Tunnel effect and symmetries for non-selfadjoint operators

Michael Hitrik (2013)

Journées Équations aux dérivées partielles

We study low lying eigenvalues for non-selfadjoint semiclassical differential operators, where symmetries play an important role. In the case of the Kramers-Fokker-Planck operator, we show how the presence of certain supersymmetric and 𝒫𝒯 -symmetric structures leads to precise results concerning the reality and the size of the exponentially small eigenvalues in the semiclassical (here the low temperature) limit. This analysis also applies sometimes to chains of oscillators coupled to two heat baths,...

Twisted spectral triples and covariant differential calculi

Ulrich Krähmer, Elmar Wagner (2011)

Banach Center Publications

Connes and Moscovici recently studied "twisted" spectral triples (A,H,D) in which the commutators [D,a] are replaced by D∘a - σ(a)∘D, where σ is a second representation of A on H. The aim of this note is to point out that this yields representations of arbitrary covariant differential calculi over Hopf algebras in the sense of Woronowicz. For compact quantum groups, H can be completed to a Hilbert space and the calculus is given by bounded operators. At the end, we discuss an explicit example of...

Twistor operators on conformally flat spaces

Somberg, Petr (2001)

Proceedings of the 20th Winter School "Geometry and Physics"

Summary: We describe explicitly the kernels of higher spin twistor operators on standard even dimensional Euclidean space 2 l , standard even dimensional sphere S 2 l , and standard even dimensional hyperbolic space 2 l , using realizations of invariant differential operators inside spinor valued differential forms. The kernels are finite dimensional vector spaces (of the same cardinality) generated by spinor valued polynomials on 2 l , S 2 l , 2 l .

Two Hartree-Fock models for the vacuum polarization

Philippe Gravejat, Christian Hainzl, Mathieu Lewin, Éric Séré (2012)

Journées Équations aux dérivées partielles

We review recent results about the derivation and the analysis of two Hartree-Fock-type models for the polarization of vacuum. We pay particular attention to the variational construction of a self-consistent polarized vacuum, and to the physical agreement between our non-perturbative construction and the perturbative description provided by Quantum Electrodynamics.

Two-parameter non-commutative Central Limit Theorem

Natasha Blitvić (2014)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

In 1992, Speicher showed the fundamental fact that the probability measures playing the role of the classical Gaussian in the various non-commutative probability theories (viz. fermionic probability, Voiculescu’s free probability, and q -deformed probability of Bożejko and Speicher) all arise as the limits in a generalized Central Limit Theorem. The latter concerns sequences of non-commutative random variables (elements of a * -algebra equipped with a state) drawn from an ensemble of pair-wise commuting...
