We study all possible $U(1)$-extensions of the standard model (SM) in the framework of noncommutative geometry (NCG) with the algebra $\hhh\op\cc\op\cc\op M_3(\cc)$. Comparison to experimental data about the mass of a hypothetical $Z'$…
We show that a simple change of the classical boson-fermion coupling constant, $2\alpha \to 2\alpha n $, $n\in \N$, in the superconformal mechanics model gives rise to a radical change of a symmetry: the modified classical and quantum…
We introduce a Sinkhorn-type algorithm for producing quantum permutation matrices encoding symmetries of graphs. Our algorithm generates square matrices whose entries are orthogonal projections onto one-dimensional subspaces satisfying a…
We establish a new spin-statistics theorem for a class of free pseudo-Hermitian quantum field theories whose particles furnish unitary irreducible representations of the Poincar\'{e} group. In this framework, free pseudo-Hermitian fields…
The representation theory of the generalized deformed oscillator algebras (GDOA's) is developed. GDOA's are generated by the four operators ${1,a,a^{\dag},N}$. Their commutators and Hermiticity properties are those of the boson oscillator…
To a representation of $\O_N$ (the Cuntz algebra with $N$ generators) we associate a projection valued measure and we study the case when this measure has atoms. The main technical tool are the spaces invariant for all the operators…
The Witten index counts the difference in the number of bosonic and fermionic states of a quantum mechanical system. The Schur index, which can be defined for theories with at least $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetry in four dimensions is a…
Consideration of a classification of the number of partitions of a natural number according to the members of sub-partitions differing from unity leads to a non-recursive formula for the number of irreducible representations of the…
In a space of $d=15 $ Grassmann coordinates, two types of generators of the Lorentz transformations, one of spinorial and the other of vectorial character, both linear operators in Grassmann space, forming the group $ SO(1,14) $ which…
We introduce linear representations of the universal virtual braid group $UV_n(c)$, where $n\geq 2$ and $c\geq 1$, which is a unifying framework for braid-type groups with multiple types of crossings. We classify and study its complex…
The possibility of formulating quantum mechanics over quaternionic Hilbert spaces can be traced back to von Neumann's foundational works in the thirties. The absence of a suitable quaternionic version of spectrum prevented the full…
The problem of families, "Why are there three families of fermions?", is a long awaited question to be answered within a reasonable framework. We propose anti-SU($N$) groups for the unification of families in grand unification (GUT) groups,…
We discuss some simple H\"uckel-like matrix representations of non-Hermitian operators with antiunitary symmetries that include generalized $\mathcal{PT}$ (parity transformation followed by time-reversal) symmetry. One of them exhibits…
We establish a connection between generalised commuting schemes $C_g(U_n)$ of higher genus $g$, which are associated with a group scheme $U_n$ consisting of upper triangular unipotent matrices, and the representation homology…
We study the effective action associated to the Dirac operator in two dimensional non-commutative Field Theory. Starting from the axial anomaly, we compute the determinant of the Dirac operator and we find that even in the U(1) theory, a…
Operators, refered to as k-fermion operators, that interpolate between boson and fermion operators are introduced through the consideration of two noncommuting quon algebras. The deformation parameters for these quon algebras are roots of…
Unitary representations of the Galilei group are studied in phase space, in order to describe classical and quantum systems. Conditions to write in general form the generator of time translation and Lagrangians in phase space are then…
It is shown that tachyons are associated with unitary representations of Poincare mappings induced from SO(2) little group instead of SO(2,1) one. This allows us to treat more seriously possibility that neutrinos are fermionic tachyons…
We study fermion localization in gauge theory space. We consider four dimensional product gauge groups in which light chiral fermions transform under different gauge factors of the product group. This construction provides a suppression of…
We show that the left regular representation of Neretin groups is factorial, providing the first example of a non-discrete simple group with this property. This is based on a new criterion of factoriality for totally disconnected groups.…
