The current article continues our project on representation theory, Euler elements, causal homogeneous spaces and Algebraic Quantum Field Theory (AQFT). We call a pair (h,k) of Euler elements orthogonal if $e^{\pi i \ad h} k = -k$. We show…

Krawtchouk matrices have as entries values of the Krawtchouk polynomials for nonnegative integer arguments. We show how they arise as condensed Sylvester-Hadamard matrices via a binary shuffling function. The underlying symmetric tensor…

Orthogonal spaces are vector spaces together with a quadratic form whose associated bilinear form is non-degenerate. Over fields of characteristic two, there are many quadratic forms associated to a given bilinear form and quadratic…
