Weyl algebra and a realization of the unitary symmetry

Strasburger, Aleksander

Similarity:

In the paper the origins of the intrinsic unitary symmetry encountered in the study of bosonic systems with finite degrees of freedom and its relations with the Weyl algebra (1979, Jacobson) generated by the quantum canonical commutation relations are presented. An analytical representation of the Weyl algebra formulated in terms of partial differential operators with polynomial coefficients is studied in detail. As a basic example, the symmetry properties of the d -dimensional quantum...

Consider a flat symplectic manifold ( M 2 l , ω ) , l ≥ 2 , admitting a metaplectic structure. We prove that the symplectic twistor operator maps the eigenvectors of the symplectic Dirac operator, that are not symplectic Killing spinors, to the eigenvectors of the symplectic Rarita-Schwinger operator. If λ is an eigenvalue of the symplectic Dirac operator such that - ı l λ is not a symplectic Killing number, then l - 1 l λ is an eigenvalue of the symplectic Rarita-Schwinger operator.

Similarity:

Attempts to extend our previous work using the octonions to describe fundamental particles lead naturally to the consideration of a particular real, noncompact form of the exceptional Lie group E 6 , and of its subgroups. We are therefore led to a description of E 6 in terms of 3 × 3 octonionic matrices, generalizing previous results in the 2 × 2 case. Our treatment naturally includes a description of several important subgroups of E 6 , notably G 2 , F 4 , and (the double cover of) S O ( 9 , 1 ) . An interpretation of...
