A super-integrable two-dimensional nonlinear oscillator with an exactly solvable quantum analog.
We show by explicit calculations in the particular case of the 4-dimensional irreducible representation of that it is not always possible to generalize to the quantum case the notion of symmetric algebra of a Lie algebra representation.
The affine Birman-Wenzl-Murakami algebras can be defined algebraically, via generators and relations, or geometrically as algebras of tangles in the solid torus, modulo Kauffman skein relations. We prove that the two versions are isomorphic, and we show that these algebras are free over any ground ring, with a basis similar to a well known basis of the affine Hecke algebra.
Lax operator algebras constitute a new class of infinite dimensional Lie algebras of geometric origin. More precisely, they are algebras of matrices whose entries are meromorphic functions on a compact Riemann surface. They generalize classical current algebras and current algebras of Krichever-Novikov type. Lax operators for 𝔤𝔩(n), with the spectral parameter on a Riemann surface, were introduced by Krichever. In joint works of Krichever and Sheinman their algebraic structure was revealed and...
A new Jordanian quantum complex 4-sphere together with an instanton-type idempotent is obtained as a suspension of the Jordanian quantum group .
A sequence of Temperley-Lieb algebra elements corresponding to torus braids with growing twisting numbers converges to the Jones-Wenzl projector. We show that a sequence of categorification complexes of these braids also has a limit which may serve as a categorification of the Jones-Wenzl projector.
Several situations of physical importance may be modelled by linear quantum fields propagating in fixed spacetime-dependent classical background fields. For example, the quantum Dirac field in a strong and/or time-dependent external electromagnetic field accounts for the creation of electron-positron pairs out of the vacuum. Also, the theory of linear quantum fields propagating on a given background curved spacetime is the appropriate framework for the derivation of black-hole evaporation (Hawking...
