Motivated by the consideration of integrable systems in three spatial dimensions in Euclidean space with integrals quadratic in the momenta we classify three-dimensional Abelian subalgebras of quadratic elements in the universal enveloping algebra of the Euclidean algebra under the assumption that the Casimir invariant p â†' â‹... l â†' vanishes in the relevant representation. We show by means of an explicit example that in the presence of magnetic field, i.e. terms linear in the momenta in the Hamiltonian, this classification allows for pairs of commuting integrals whose leading order terms cannot be written in the famous classical form of Makarov et al [17]. We consider limits simplifying the structure of the magnetic field in this example and corresponding reductions of integrals, demonstrating that singularities in the integrals may arise, forcing structural changes of the leading order terms.

In Alase et al (2022 J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 55 244003), Alase et al wrote that 'the constraint of quasi-Hermiticity on observables' is not 'sufficient to extend the standard quantum theory' because 'such a system is equivalent to a standard quantum system.' Three addenda elucidating the current state of the art are found necessary. The first one concerns the project: in the related literature the original 'aim of extending standard quantum theory' has already been abandoned shortly after its formulation. The second comment concerns the method, viz., the study in 'the framework of general probabilistic theories' (GPT). It is noticed that a few other, mathematically consistent GPT-like theories are available. The authors do not mention, in particular, the progress achieved, under the quasi-Hermiticity constraint, in the approach using the effect algebras. We add that this approach already found its advanced realistic applications in the quasi-Hermitian models using the unbounded operators of observables acting in the infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces. Thirdly, the 'intriguing open question' about 'what possible constraints, if any, could lead to such a meaningful extension' (in the future) is given an immediate tentative answer: the possibility is advocated that the desirable constraint could really be just the quasi-Hermiticity of the observables, provided only that one has in mind its recently developed non-stationary version.

A class of left bialgebroids whose underlying algebra A ♯ H is a smash product of a bialgebra H with a braided commutative Yetter–Drinfeld H -algebra A has recently been studied in relation to models of field theories on noncommutative spaces. In Borowiec and Pachoł (2017 J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 50 055205) a proof has been presented that the bialgebroid A F ♯ H F where HF and AF are the twists of H and A by a Drinfeld 2-cocycle F = ∑ F 1 ⊗ F 2 is isomorphic to the twist of bialgebroid A ♯ H by the bialgebroid 2-cocycle ∑ 1 ♯ F 1 ⊗ 1 ♯ F 2 induced by F. They assume H is quasitriangular, which is reasonable for many physical applications. However the proof and the entire paper take for granted that the coaction and the prebraiding are both given by special formulas involving the R-matrix. There are counterexamples of Yetter–Drinfeld modules over quasitriangular Hopf algebras which are not of this special form. Nevertheless, the main result essentially survives. We present a proof with a general coaction and the correct prebraiding, and even without the assumption of quasitriangularity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The authors replies to the comment made by Yang and Zhou (2024 J. Phys. A: Math. Theor.) on his 2015 paper entitled 'Critical points of Potts and O(N) models from eigenvalue identities in periodic Temperley–Lieb algebras' (Jacobsen 2015 J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 48 454003). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Superintegrable systems in two-dimensional (2D) Darboux spaces were classified and it was found that there exist 12 distinct classes of superintegrable systems with quadratic integrals of motion (and quadratic symmetry algebras generated by the integrals) in the Darboux spaces. In this paper, we obtain exact solutions via purely algebraic means for the energies of all the 12 existing classes of superintegrable systems in four different 2D Darboux spaces. This is achieved by constructing the deformed oscillator realization and finite-dimensional irreducible representation of the underlying quadratic symmetry algebra generated by quadratic integrals respectively for each of the 12 superintegrable systems. We also introduce generic cubic and quintic algebras, generated respectively by linear and quadratic integrals and linear and cubic integrals, and obtain their Casimir operators and deformed oscillator realizations. As examples of applications, we present three classes of new superintegrable systems with cubic symmetry algebras in 2D Darboux spaces. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A Z 2 × Z 2 -graded Lie superalgebra g is a Z 2 × Z 2 -graded algebra with a bracket [ [ ⋅ , ⋅ ] ] that satisfies certain graded versions of the symmetry and Jacobi identity. In particular, despite the common terminology, g is not a Lie superalgebra. We construct the most general orthosymplectic Z 2 × Z 2 -graded Lie superalgebra o s p (2 m 1 + 1 , 2 m 2 | 2 n 1 , 2 n 2) in terms of defining matrices. A special case of this algebra appeared already in work of Tolstoy in 2014. Our construction is based on the notion of graded supertranspose for a Z 2 × Z 2 -graded matrix. Since the orthosymplectic Lie superalgebra o s p (2 m + 1 | 2 n) is closely related to the definition of parabosons, parafermions and mixed parastatistics, we investigate here the new parastatistics relations following from o s p (2 m 1 + 1 , 2 m 2 | 2 n 1 , 2 n 2) . Some special cases are of particular interest, even when one is dealing with parabosons only. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Yang–Baxter integrable vertex models with a generic Z 2 -staggering can be expressed in terms of composite R -matrices given in terms of the elementary R -matrices. Similarly, integrable open boundary conditions can be constructed through generalized reflection algebras based on these objects and their representations in terms of composite boundary matrices K ± . We show that only two types of staggering yield a local Hamiltonian with integrable open boundary conditions in this approach. The staggering in the underlying model allows for a second hierarchy of commuting integrals of motion (in addition to the one including the Hamiltonian obtained from the usual transfer matrix), starting with the so-called quasi momentum operator. In this paper, we show that this quasi momentum operator can be obtained together with the Hamiltonian for both periodic and open models in a unified way from enlarged Yang–Baxter or reflection algebras in the composite picture. For the special case of the staggered six-vertex model, this allows constructing an integrable spectral flow between the two local cases. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The work is devoted to the study of quantum integrable systems associated with quantum loop algebras. The recently obtained equation for the zero temperature inhomogeneous reduced density operator is analyzed. It is demonstrated that any solution of the corresponding qKZ equation generates a solution to this equation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the present paper we study the representations of the Jacobi algebra. More concretely, we define, analogously to the case of semi-simple Lie algebras, the Verma modules over the Jacobi algebra G 2 . We study their reducibility and give explicit construction of the reducible Verma modules exhibiting the corresponding singular vectors. Using this information we give a complete classification of the reducible Verma modules. More than this we exhibit their interrelation of embeddings between these modules. These embeddings are illustrated by diagrams of the embedding patterns so that each reducible Verma module appears in one such diagram. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Construction of superintegrable systems based on Lie algebras have been introduced over the years. However, these approaches depend on explicit realisations, for instance as a differential operators, of the underlying Lie algebra. This is also the case for the construction of their related symmetry algebra which take usually the form of a finitely generated quadratic algebra. These algebras often display structure constants which depend on the central elements and in particular on the Hamiltonian. In this paper, we develop a new approach reexamining the quadratically superintegrable system on the two-sphere for which a symmetry algebra is known to be the Racah algebra R(3). Such a model is related to the 59 two dimensional quadratically superintegrable systems on conformally flat spaces via contractions and limits. We demonstrate that using further polynomials of degree 2, 3 and 4 in the enveloping algebra of su(3) one can generate an algebra based only on abstract commutation relations of su(3) Lie algebra without explicit constraints on the representations or realisations. This construction relies on the maximal Abelian subalgebra, also called MASA, which are the Cartan generators and their commutant. We obtain a new six-dimensional cubic algebra where the structure constant are integer numbers which reduce from a quartic algebra for which the structure constant depend on the Cartan generator and the Casimir invariant. We also present other form of the symmetry algebra using the quadratic and cubic Casimir invariants of su(3). It reduces as the known quadratic Racah algebra R(3) only when using an explicit realization. This algebraic structure describes the symmetry of the quadratically superintegrable systems on the 2 sphere. We also present a contraction to another six-dimensional cubic algebra which would corresponding to the symmetry algebra of a Smorodinsky–Winternitz model. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we investigate in detail a superintegrable extension of the singular harmonic oscillator whose wave functions can be expressed in terms of exceptional Jacobi polynomials. We show that this Hamiltonian admits a fourth-order integral of motion and use the classification of such systems to show that the potential gives a rational solution associated with the sixth Painlevé equation. Additionally, we show that the integrals of the motion close to form a cubic algebra and describe briefly deformed oscillator representations of this algebra. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A one-dimensional deformed Heisenberg algebra [X, P] = i f (P) is studied. We answer the question: for what function of deformation f (P) does there exist a nonzero minimal uncertainty in position (minimal length)? We also find an explicit expression for the minimal length in the case of an arbitrary function of deformation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A complete classification of 2D quadratically superintegrable systems with scalar potential on two-dimensional conformally flat spaces has been performed over the years and 58 models, divided into 12 equivalence classes, have been obtained. We will re-examine two pseudo-Hermitian quantum systems E 8 and E 10 from such a classification by a new approach based on extra sets of ladder operators. They correspond in fact to two of those equivalence classes. Those extra ladder operators are exploited to obtain the generating spectrum algebra and the dynamical symmetry one. We will relate the generators of the dynamical symmetry algebra to the Hamiltonian, thus demonstrating that the latter can be written in an algebraic form. We will also link them to the integrals of motion providing the superintegrability property. This demonstrates how the underlying dynamical symmetry algebra allows to write the integrals in terms of its generators and therefore explains the symmetries. Furthermore, we will exploit those algebraic constructions to generate extended sets of states and give the action of the ladder operators on them. We will present polynomials of the Hamiltonian and the integrals of motion that vanish on some of those states, then demonstrating that the sets of states not only contain eigenstates, but also generalized states which are beyond the well-known eigenstates of diagonalizable Hamiltonians and satisfy more complicated polynomial identities. Our approach provides a natural framework for such states. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We present an algorithm to compute the exact critical probability h (n) for an n × ∞ helical square lattice with random and independent site occupancy. The algorithm has time complexity O (n 2 c n) and space complexity O (c n) with c = 2.7459... and allows us to compute h (n) up to n = 24. Since the extrapolation result of h (n) is inconsistent with the current best estimation of pc, we also compute and extend the exact critical probability p c (n) for an n × ∞ cylindrical square lattice to n = 24. Our calculation shows that the current best result of p c = 0.592 746 050 792 10 (2) by Jacobsen (2015 J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 48 454003) is incorrect and the corrected value should be 0.592 746 050 7896 (1) . [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We study solutions of the reflection equation related to the quantum affine algebra U q ( s l n ^) . First, we explain how to construct a family of stochastic integrable vertex models with fixed boundary conditions. Then, we construct upper- and lower-triangular solutions of the reflection equation related to symmetric tensor representations of U q ( s l n ^) with arbitrary spin. We also prove the star–star relation for the Boltzmann weights of the Ising-type model, conjectured by Bazhanov and Sergeev, and use it to verify certain properties of the solutions obtained.

We extend the method for constructing symmetry operators of higher order for two-dimensional quantum Hamiltonians by Kalnins et al (2010 J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 43 265205). This expansion method expresses the integral in a finite power series in terms of lower degree integrals so as to exhibit it as a first-order differential operators. One advantage of this approach is that it does not require the a priori knowledge of the explicit eigenfunctions of the Hamiltonian nor the action of their raising and lowering operators as in their recurrence approach (Kalnins et al 2011 SIGMA 7 031). We obtain insight into the two-dimensional Hamiltonians of radial oscillator type with general second-order differential operators for the angular variable. We then re-examine the Hamiltonian of Tremblay et al (2009 J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 42 242001) as well as a deformation discovered by Post et al (2011 J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 44 505201) which possesses reflection operators. We will extend the analysis to spaces of constant curvature. We present explicit formulas for the integrals and the symmetry algebra, the Casimir invariant and oscillator realizations with finite-dimensional irreps which fill a gap in the literature.

In this paper we show that certain three-dimensional isometry algebras, specifically those of type I, II, III and V (according to Bianchi's classification), can be obtained as expansions of the isometries in two dimensions. In particular, we use the so-called S-expansionmethod, whichmakes use of the finite Abelian semigroups, because it is the most general procedure known until now. Also, it is explicitly shown why it is impossible to obtain the algebras of type IV, VI-IX as expansions from the isometry algebras in two dimensions. All the results are checked with computer programs. This procedure shows that the problem of how to relate, by an expansion, two Lie algebras of different dimensions can be entirely solved. In particular, the procedure can be generalized to higher dimensions, which could be useful for diverse physical applications, as we discuss in our conclusions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We develop the quantum cluster algebra approach recently introduced by Sun and Yagi to investigate the tetrahedron equation, a three-dimensional generalization of the Yang-Baxter equation. In the case of square quiver, we devise a new realization of quantum Y -variables in terms q -Weyl algebras and obtain a solution that possesses three spectral parameters. It is expressed in various forms, comprising four products of quantum dilogarithms depending on the signs in decomposing the quantum mutations into the automorphism part and the monomial part. For a specific choice of them, our formula precisely reproduces Sergeev's R matrix, which corresponds to a vertex formulation of the Zamolodchikov-Bazhanov-Baxter model when q is specialized to a root of unity.

This study investigates the scaling behavior of the ground-state entanglement entropy in a model of free fermions on folded cubes. An analytical expression is derived in the large-diameter limit, revealing a strict adherence to the area law. The absence of the logarithmic enhancement expected for free fermions is explained using a decomposition of folded cubes in chains based on its Terwilliger algebra and s o (3) − 1 . The entanglement Hamiltonian and its relation to Heun operators are also investigated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We consider intertwining relations of the triangular q-Onsager algebra, and obtain generic triangular boundary K-operators in terms of the Borel subalgebras of Uq(sl2). These K-operators solve the reflection equation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of this paper is to study n-ary Hom-LieH-pseudoalgebras generalizing both n-ary Hom-Nambu-Lie algebras and n-Lie H-pseudoalgebras. We list examples of the new structure and present some properties and the construction theorem. Furthermore, we provide a way to construct an n-ary Hom-Nambu- Lie algebra from an n-ary Hom-LieH-pseudoalgebra. The equivalent definition of n-ary Hom-Lie H-pseudoalgebra is also described. Finally, we discuss the prospects of n-ary Hom-Lie H-pseudoalgebras in physics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper is devoted to the construction of new integrable quantum-mechanical models based on certain subalgebras of the half-loop algebra of . Various results about these subalgebras are proven by presenting them in the notation of the St Petersburg school. These results are then used to demonstrate the integrability, and find the symmetries, of two types of physical system: twisted Gaudin magnets and Calogero-type models of particles on several half lines meeting at a point. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

There are different methods of discretizing integrable systems. We consider semi-discrete analog of two-dimensional Toda lattices associated to the Cartan matrices of simple Lie algebras that was proposed by Habibullin in 2011. This discretization is based on the notion of Darboux integrability. Generalized Toda lattices are known to be Darboux integrable in the continuous case (that is, they admit complete families of characteristic integrals in both directions). We prove that semi-discrete analogs of Toda lattices associated to the Cartan matrices of all simple Lie algebras are Darboux integrable. By examining the properties of Habibullin's discretization we show that if a function is a characteristic integral for a generalized Toda lattice in the continuous case, then the same function is a characteristic integral in the semi-discrete case as well. We consider characteristic algebras of such integral-preserving discretizations of Toda lattices to prove the existence of complete families of characteristic integrals in the second direction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of this work is to study the relation between S -expansions and other transformations of Lie algebras. In particular, we prove that contractions, deformations and central extensions of Lie algebras are preserved by S -expansions. We also provide several examples and give conditions so transformations of reduced subalgebras of S -expanded algebras are preserved by the S -expansion procedure. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We show, using the methods of geometric algebra, that Runge–Lenz vector in the Kepler problem is a 3-dimensional projection of SO(4) moment map that acts on the phase space of 4-dimensional particle motion. Thus, Runge–Lenz vector is a consequence of geometric symmetry of R 4 × R 4 phase space. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We consider the Plancherel measure on irreducible components of tensor powers of the spinor representation of s o 2 n + 1 . The irreducible representations correspond to the generalized Young diagrams. With respect to this measure the probability of an irreducible representation is the product of its multiplicity and dimension, divided by the total dimension of the tensor product. We study the limit shape of the generalized Young diagram when the tensor power N and the rank n of the algebra tend to infinity with N / n fixed. We derive an explicit formula for the limit shape and prove convergence to it in probability. We prove central limit theorem for global fluctuations around the limit shape. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents a derivation of the possible residual symmetries of rational K-matrices which are invertible in the ‘classical limit’ (the spectral parameter goes to infinity). This derivation uses only the boundary Yang–Baxter equation and the asymptotic expansions of the R-matrices. The result proves the previous assumption of the literature: if the original and the residual symmetry algebras are and then there exists a Lie-algebra involution of for which the invariant sub-algebra is . In addition, we study a K-matrix which is not invertible in the ‘classical limit’. It is shown that its symmetry algebra is not reductive but a semi-direct sum of reductive and solvable Lie-algebras. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the general case of deformed Heisenberg algebra leading to the minimal length, we present a definition of the δ ′(x) potential as a linear kernel of potential energy operator in momentum representation. We find exactly the energy level and corresponding eigenfunction for δ ′(x) and δ (x) âˆ' δ ′(x) potentials in deformed space with arbitrary function of deformation. The energy spectrum for different partial cases of deformation function is analysed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

It is known that any Poisson manifold can be embedded into a bigger space which admits a description in terms of a global symplectic structure. Such a procedure is known as a symplectic realization and has a number of important applications like the quantization of the original Poisson manifold. In the present paper we extend the above idea to the case of quasi-Poisson structures which should not necessarily satisfy the Jacobi identity. For any given quasi-Poisson structure we provide a closed recursive formula for local embedding functions and Darboux coordinates. Our construction is illustrated for the examples of the constant R-flux algebra, quasi-Poisson structure isomorphic to the commutator algebra of imaginary octonions and the non-geometric M-theory R-flux background. In all cases we derive explicit formulas for the symplectic realization and the corresponding expression for Darboux coordinates. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

It was recently conjectured that the AGT correspondence between the —instanton counting on and the two-dimensional field theories with the conformal symmetry algebra can be considered as a root of unity limit of its K-theoretic analogue. From this point of view, the algebra and a special basis in its representation are limits of the Ding–Iohara algebra and the Macdonald polynomials respectively. In this paper we confirm this conjecture for the special case r = 1. We uncover the implicit symmetry in this limit. We also found that the vertex operators in the special basis have factorized AFLT form. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper we consider integrable dispersive chains associated with the so-called ‘energy dependent’ Schrödinger operator. In a general case multi-component reductions of these dispersive chains are new integrable systems, which are characterized by two arbitrary natural numbers. Also we show that integrable three-dimensional linearly degenerate quasilinear equations of a second order possess infinitely many differential constraints. Corresponding dispersive reductions are integrable systems associated with the ‘energy dependent’ Schrödinger operator. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We study quantum integrable models solvable by the nested algebraic Bethe ansatz. Different formulas are given for the right and left universal off-shell nested Bethe vectors. It is shown that these formulas can be related by certain morphisms of the positive Borel subalgebra in into analogous subalgebra in . [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A classical exchange algebra of the superstring on S5 with AdS-time is shown on the light-like plane. To this end, we use the geometrical method of which consistency is guaranteed by the classical Yang–Baxter equation. The Dirac method does not work, since there are constraints in which first-class and second-class constraints are mixed and one can hardly disentangle with each other keeping the isometry. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We propose alternative definitions of classical states and quantumnesswitnesses by focusing on the algebra of observables of the system. A central role is assumed by the anticommutator of the observables, namely the Jordan product. This approach turns out to be suitable for generalizations to infinite dimensional systems. We then show that the whole algebra of observables can be generated by three elements by repeated application of the Jordan product. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We reviewsome of the developments in logarithmic conformal field theory from the vertex algebra point of view. Several important examples of vertex operator (super)algebras of the triplet type are discussed, including their representation theory. Particular emphasis is put on C2-cofiniteness of these vertex algebras, a description of Zhu's algebras and the construction of logarithmic modules. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper discusses the basic properties of various versions of the two-variable elliptic genus with special attention to the equivariant elliptic genus. The main applications are to the elliptic genera attached to non-compact GITs, including the theories regarding the elliptic genera of phases on N  =  2 introduced in Witten (1993 Nucl. Phys. B 403 159–222). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We consider the worldline quantization of a system invariant under the symmetries of reciprocal relativity. Imposition of the first class constraint, the generator of local time reparametrizations, on physical states enforces identification of the worldline cosmological constant with a fixed value of the quadratic Casimir of the quaplectic symmetry group Q(3, 1) [?] U(3, 1)[?]H(4), the semi-direct product of the pseudo-unitary group with the Weyl-Heisenberg group. In our previous paper, J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 40 (2007) 12095, the 'spin' degrees of freedom were handled as covariant oscillators, leading to a unique choice of cosmological constant, required for projecting out negative-norm states from the physical gauge-invariant states. In the present paper, the spin degrees of freedom are treated as standard oscillators with positive norm states (wherein Lorentz boosts are not number-conserving in the auxiliary space; reciprocal transformations are of course not spin-conserving in general). As in the covariant approach, the spectrum of the square of the energy-momentum vector is continuous over the entire real line, and thus includes tachyonic (spacelike) and null branches. Adopting standard frames, the Wigner method on each branch is implemented, to decompose the auxiliary space into unitary irreducible representations of the respective little algebras and additional degeneracy algebras. The physical state space is vastly enriched as compared with the covariant approach, and contains towers of integer spin massive states, as well as unconventional massless representations of continuous spin type, with continuous Euclidean momentum and arbitrary integer helicity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The nearby orbit method is a powerful tool for constructing semi-classical solutions of Schrödinger's equation when the initial datum is a coherent state. In this paper, we first extend this method to arbitrary squeezed states and thereafter apply our results to the Schrödinger equation in phase space. This adaptation requires the phase-space Weyl calculus developed in previous work of ours. We also study the regularity of the semi-classical solutions from the point of view of the Feichtinger algebra familiar from the theory of modulation spaces. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Following Baxter's method of producing Q72-operator, we construct the Q-operator of the root-of-unity eight-vertex model for the crossing parameter \eta = \frac{2m K}{N} with odd N where Q72 does not exist. We use this new Q-operator to study the functional relations in the Fabricius-McCoy comparison between the root-of-unity eight-vertex model and the superintegrable N-state chiral Potts model. By the compatibility of the constructed Q-operator with the structure of Baxter's eight-vertex (solid-on-solid) SOS model, we verify the set of functional relations of the root-of-unity eight-vertex model using the explicit form of the Q-operator and fusion weights of the SOS model.

The algebra and calculus of generalized differential forms are reviewed and developed.

This paper is concerned with a link between central extensions of N= 2 superconformal algebra and a supersymmetric two-component generalization of the Camassa-Holm equation. Deformations of superconformal algebra give rise to two compatible bracket structures. One of the bracket structures is derived from the central extension and admits a momentum operator which agrees with the Sobolev norm of a co-adjoint orbit element. The momentum operator induces, via Lenard relations, a chain of conserved Hamiltonians of the resulting supersymmetric Camassa-Holm hierarchy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The fully packed loop (FPL) model is a statistical model related to the integrable vertex model. In this paper we study the continuum limit of the FPL. With the appropriate weight of non-contractible loops, we give evidence of an extended W3 symmetry in the continuum. The partition function on the torus is calculated exactly, yielding new modular invariants of W3 characters. The full conformal field theory spectrum is obtained, and is found to be in excellent agreement with exact diagonalisation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The authors discuss various topics to show the impact of the articles by A. J. Macfarlane and L. C. Biedenharn in which q-boson operators play a significant role. Topics include the extensions and generalizations of the q-boson algebra, position and momentum operators and q-deformed quantum mechanics, and representations of quantum algebras and q-functions. Also mentioned are the applications of q-boson operators to various problems in physics.

This article is the third in a series, the aim of which is to use Lie group theory to obtain exact analytic solutions of delay ordinary differential systems (DODSs). Such a system consists of two equations involving one independent variable x and one dependent variable y. As opposed to ordinary differential equations (ODEs) the variable x figures in more than one point (we consider the case of two points, x and x−). The dependent variable y and its derivatives figure in both x and x−. Two previous articles were devoted to first-order DODSs, here we concentrate on a large class of second-order ones. We show that within this class the symmetry algebra can be of dimension n with 0 ⩽ n ⩽ 6 for nonlinear DODSs and must be infinite-dimensional for linear or linearizable ones. The symmetry algebras can be used to obtain exact particular group invariant solutions. As a specific application we present some exact solutions of a DODS model of traffic flow.

Quantum entanglement breaking channels are a fundamental class of quantum operations; originally investigated for quantum information theoretic reasons, their study has since grown to touch on many aspects of quantum information science. Here we investigate the nullspace structures of entanglement breaking channels and we derive a pair of related applications. We show that every operator space of trace zero matrices is the nullspace of an entanglement breaking channel. We derive a test for mixed unitarity of quantum channels based on complementary channel behaviour and entanglement breaking channel nullspaces. We identify conditions that guarantee the existence of private algebras for certain classes of entanglement breaking channels. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We conjecture a closed-form expression for the Schur limit of the superconformal index of two infinite series of Argyres–Douglas (AD) superconformal field theories (SCFTs): the and the theories. While these SCFTs can be realized at special points on the Coulomb branch of certain gauge theories, their superconformal R symmetries are emergent, and hence their indices cannot be evaluated by localization. Instead, we construct the and indices by using a relation to two-dimensional q-deformed Yang–Mills theory and data from the class construction. Our results generalize the indices derived from the torus partition functions of the two-dimensional chiral algebras associated with the and SCFTs. As checks of our conjectures, we study the consistency of our results with an S-duality recently discussed by us in collaboration with Giacomelli and Papageorgakis, we reproduce known Higgs branch relations, we check consistency with a series of renormalization group flows, and we verify that the small S1 limits of our indices reproduce expected Cardy-like behavior. We will discuss the S1 reduction of our indices in a separate paper. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we defined a new multi-component B type Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (BKP) hierarchy that takes values in a commutative subalgebra of After this, we give the gauge transformation of this commutative multicomponent BKP (CMBKP) hierarchy. Meanwhile, we construct a new constrained CMBKP hierarchy that contains some new integrable systems, including coupled KdV equations under a certain reduction. After this, the quantum torus symmetry and quantum torus constraint on the tau function of the commutative multi-component BKP hierarchy will be constructed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We show how the derivation of the Derrida–Lebowitz–Speer–Spohn equation can be prolonged to obtain a new equation, generalizing the models obtained in the paper by these authors. We then investigate its properties from both an analytical and numerical perspective. Specifically, a numerical method is presented to approximate solutions of the prolonged equation. Using this method, we investigate the relationship between the solutions of the prolonged equation and the Tracy–Widom GOE distribution. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The construction of generalized Bäcklund transformation for the An affine Toda hierarchy is proposed in terms of gauge transformation acting on the zero curvature representation. Such construction is based upon the graded structure of the underlying affine algebra which induces a classification of generalized Bäcklund transformations. Moreover, explicit examples for sl(3) and sl(4) lead to uncover interesting composition properties of various types of Bäcklund transformations. The universality character of the gauge-Bäcklund transformation method is extended to all equations of the hierarchy. Such interesting property provides a systematic framework to construct Bäcklund transformations to higher flow equations. Explicit example for the simplest higher flow of the sl(3) hierarchy is presented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Let H be a finite-dimensional Hilbert space, dim H ⩾ 2.

We present examples showing the optimality of the result. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
