The Foldy-Wouthuysen transformation in the two-particle case
We establish necessary and sufficient conditions on the real- or complex-valued potential defined on for the relativistic Schrödinger operator to be bounded as an operator from the Sobolev space to its dual .
A list of known quantum spheres of dimension one, two and three is presented.
We give a geometric construction of the phase space of the elliptic Calogero-Moser system for arbitrary root systems, as a space of Weyl invariant pairs (bundles, Higgs fields) on the -th power of the elliptic curve, where is the rank of the root system. The Poisson structure and the Hamiltonians of the integrable system are given natural constructions. We also exhibit a curious duality between the spectral varieties for the system associated to a root system, and the Lagrangian varieties for...
We investigate the mapping class groups of diffeomorphisms fixing a frame at a point for general classes of 3-manifolds. These groups form the equivalent to the groups of large gauge transformations in Yang-Mills theories. They are also isomorphic to the fundamental groups of the spaces of 3-metrics modulo diffeomorphisms, which are the analogues in General Relativity to gauge-orbit spaces in gauge theories.
