Let $G/H$ be a reductive symmetric space of split rank $1$ and let $K$ be a maximal compact subgroup of $G$. In a previous article the first two authors introduced a notion of cusp forms for $G/H$. We show that the space of cusp forms…
We classify distinct types of quantum number fractionalization occurring in two-dimensional topologically ordered phases, focusing in particular on phases with Z2 topological order, that is, on gapped Z2 spin liquids. We find that the…
We introduce a spin ladder with discrete symmetries designed to emulate a two-dimensional spin-1/2 boson system at half-filling. Using global properties, such as the structure of topological defects, we establish a correspondence between…
The present article is the final part of a series on the classification of the totally geodesic submanifolds of the irreducible Riemannian symmetric spaces of rank 2. After this problem has been solved for the 2-Grassmannians in my previous…
We describe the $G$-equivariant Grothendieck ring of a regular compactification $X$ of an adjoint symmetric space $G/H$ of minimal rank. This extends the results of Brion and Joshua for the equivariant Chow ring of wonderful symmetric…
In previous works, the universal mapping class group was taken to be the group PPSL(2,Z) of all piecewise PSL(2,Z) homeomorphisms of the unit circle S^1 with finitely many breakpoints among the rational points, and in fact, the Thompson…
We investigate closed subgroups $G \subseteq \mathrm{Sp}_{2g}(\mathbb{Z}_2)$ whose modulo-$2$ images coincide with the image $\mathfrak{S}_{2g + 1} \subseteq \mathrm{Sp}_{2g}(\mathbb{F}_2)$ of $S_{2g + 1}$ or the image $\mathfrak{S}_{2g +…
We discuss symmetry fractionalization of the Lorentz group in (2+1)$d$ non-spin quantum field theory (QFT), and its implications for dualities. We prove that two inequivalent non-spin QFTs are dual as spin QFTs if and only if they are…
In Physics and in Mathematics $\mathbb{Z}_2^n$-gradings, $n>1$, appear in various fields. The corresponding sign rule is determined by the `scalar product' of the involved $\mathbb{Z}_2^n$-degrees. The $\mathbb{Z}_2^n$-Supergeometry…
In this thesis, we develop algorithms similar to the Gaussian elimination algorithm in symplectic and split orthogonal similitude groups. As an application to this algorithm, we compute the spinor norm for split orthogonal groups. Also, we…
We study the connectedness of the moduli space of gauge equivalence classes of flat G-connections on a compact orientable surface or a compact nonorientable surface for a class of compact connected Lie groups. This class includes all the…
In this paper we generalize a result in [1], showing that an arbitrary Riemannian symmetric space can be realized as a closed submanifold of a covering group of the Lie group defining the symmetric space. Some properties of the subgroups of…
In this paper, we provide a complete list of anomaly-free hyperspherical Hamiltonian spaces for simple reductive groups, as well as their conjectural dual spaces in the sense of BZSV duality.
We classify irreducible representations of compact connected Lie groups whose orbit space is isometric to the orbit space of a representation of a compact Lie group of dimension~$7$, $8$ or $9$. They turn out to be closely related to…
We present a classification, up to isomorphisms, of all the homogeneous spaces of the Lorentz group with dimension lower than six. At the same time, we classify, up to conjugation, all the non-discrete closed subgroup of the Lorentz group…
We study the relations between spin squeezing and concurrence, and find that they are qualitatively equivalent for an ensemble of spin-1/2 particles with exchange symmetry and parity, if we adopt the spin squeezing criterion given by the…
We introduce an abstract definition of a Hamming space that generalizes standard Hamming spaces $( \mathbb{Z}/ 2 \mathbb{Z})^n $. We classify countable locally standard Hamming spaces and show that each of them can be realized as the…
We extend the notion of super-Minkowski space-time to include $\mathbb{Z}_2^n$-graded (Majorana) spinor coordinates. Our choice of the grading leads to spinor coordinates that are nilpotent but commute amongst themselves. The mathematical…
Easy quantum groups are compact matrix quantum groups, whose intertwiner spaces are given by the combinatorics of categories of partitions. This class contains the symmetric group and the orthogonal group as well as Wang's quantum…
A Lie group $G$ naturally acts on its Lie algebra $\gg$, called the adjoint action. In this paper, we determine the orbit types of the compact exceptional Lie group $G_2$ in its Lie algebra $\gg_2$. As results, the group $G_2$ has four…
