Quantization of canonical cones of algebraic curves

Benjamin Enriquez, Alexander Odesskii (2002)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

We introduce a quantization of the graded algebra of functions on the canonical cone of an algebraic curve C , based on the theory of formal pseudodifferential operators. When C is a complex curve with Poincaré uniformization, we propose another, equivalent construction, based on the work of Cohen-Manin-Zagier on Rankin-Cohen brackets. We give a presentation of the quantum algebra when C is a rational curve, and discuss the problem of constructing algebraically “differential liftings”. ...

Contractive homomorphisms of measure algebras and Fourier algebras

Ross Stokke (2012)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We show that the dual version of our factorization [J. Funct. Anal. 261 (2011)] of contractive homomorphisms φ: L¹(F) → M(G) between group/measure algebras fails to hold in the dual, Fourier/Fourier-Stieltjes algebra, setting. We characterize the contractive w*-w* continuous homomorphisms between measure algebras and (reduced) Fourier-Stieltjes algebras. We consider the problem of describing all contractive homomorphisms φ: L¹(F) → L¹(G).

Old and new results on Allan's GB*-algebras

Maria Fragoulopoulou, Atsushi Inoue, Klaus-Detlef Kürsten (2010)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

This is an expository paper on the importance and applications of GB*-algebras in the theory of unbounded operators, which is closely related to quantum field theory and quantum mechanics. After recalling the definition and the main examples of GB*-algebras we exhibit their most important properties. Then, through concrete examples we are led to a question concerning the structure of the completion of a given C*-algebra 𝓐₀[||·||₀], under a locally convex *-algebra topology τ, making...

Divergence operators and odd Poisson brackets

Yvette Kosmann-Schwarzbach, Juan Monterde (2002)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

We define the divergence operators on a graded algebra, and we show that, given an odd Poisson bracket on the algebra, the operator that maps an element to the divergence of the hamiltonian derivation that it defines is a generator of the bracket. This is the “odd laplacian”, Δ , of Batalin-Vilkovisky quantization. We then study the generators of odd Poisson brackets on supermanifolds, where divergences of graded vector fields can be defined either in terms of berezinian volumes or of...

Compactness conditions for elementary operators

Matej Brešar, Yuri V. Turovskii (2007)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Various topics concerning compact elementary operators on Banach algebras are studied: their ranges, their coefficients, and the structure of algebras having nontrivial compact elementary operators. In the first part of the paper we consider separately elementary operators of certain simple types. In the second part we obtain our main results which deal with general elementary operators.

From Poisson algebras to Gerstenhaber algebras

Yvette Kosmann-Schwarzbach (1996)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Similarity:

Constructing an even Poisson algebra from a Gerstenhaber algebra by means of an odd derivation of square 0 is shown to be possible in the category of Loday algebras (algebras with a non-skew-symmetric bracket, generalizing the Lie algebras, heretofore called Leibniz algebras in the literature). Such “derived brackets” give rise to Lie brackets on certain quotient spaces, and also on certain Abelian subalgebras. The construction of these derived brackets explains the origin of the Lie...
