Spontaneously broken symmetries
Using 'twisted' realizations of the symmetric groups, we show that Bose and Fermi statistics are compatible with transformations generated by compact quantum groups of Drinfel'd type.
It is well known that starting with real structure, the Cayley-Dickson process gives complex, quaternionic, and octonionic (Cayley) structures related to the Adolf Hurwitz composition formula for dimensions p = 2, 4 and 8, respectively, but the procedure fails for p = 16 in the sense that the composition formula involves no more a triple of quadratic forms of the same dimension; the other two dimensions are n = 27. Instead, Ławrynowicz and Suzuki (2001) have considered graded fractal bundles of...
We study the symmetric powers of four algebras: -oscillator algebra, -Weyl algebra, -Weyl algebra and . We provide explicit formulae as well as combinatorial interpretation for the normal coordinates of products of arbitrary elements in the above algebras.
The Hamiltonian for an extended Hubbard model with phonons as introduced by A. Montorsi and M. Rasetti is considered on a D-dimensional lattice. The symmetries of the model are studied in various cases. It is shown that for a certain choice of the parameters a superconducting holds as a true quantum symmetry, but only for D=1.
