We describe how to define observables analogous to quantum fields for the semicontinuous limit recently introduced by Jones in the study of unitary representations of Thompson's groups $F$ and $T$. We find that, in terms of correlation…
Using gauge theory and functional integral methods, we derive concrete expressions for the partition functions of BF theory and the U(1|1) model of Rozansky and Saleur on $\Sigma x S^{1}$, both directly and using equivalent two-dimensional…
Group field theories are higher dimensional generalizations of matrix models. Their Feynman graphs are fat and in addition to vertices, edges and faces, they also contain higher dimensional cells, called bubbles. In this paper, we propose a…
Let G be a discrete group. We give methods to compute for a generalized (co-)homology theory its values on the Borel construction (EG x X)/G of a proper G-CW-complex X satisfying certain finiteness conditions. In particular we give formulas…
The twisted Drinfeld double (or quasi-quantum double) of a finite group with a 3-cocycle is identified with a certain twisted groupoid algebra. The groupoid is the loop (or inertia) groupoid of the original group and the twisting is shown…
The aim of this paper is mainly to build a new representation-theoretic realization of finite root systems through the so-called Frobenius-type triangular matrix algebras by the method of reflection functors over any field. Finally, we give…
By considering specific limits in the gauge coupling constant of pure Yang--Mills dynamics, it is shown how there exist topological quantum field theory sectors in such systems defining nonperturbative topological configurations of the…
Lawrence-Krammer representations (LK-representations for short) are linear representations of Artin-Tits groups of small type, which are of importance since they are known to be faithful when the type is spherical, or more generally when…
We show that a compact representation of a semisimple Lie group has an orthogonal decomposition into finite length representations. This generalises and simplifies a number of more special spectral theorems in the literature. We apply it to…
A formally exact discrete multi-resolution representation of quantum field theory on a light front is presented. The formulation uses an orthonormal basis of compactly supported wavelets to expand the fields restricted to a light front. The…
Presenting a finite group by a free product of finite cyclic groups the Hopf formula for the Schur multiplier affords also a covering group, and this has minimal exponent provided that the order of the generators is preserved. This…
Motivated by the Langlands program in representation theory, number theory and geometry, the theory of representations of a reductive $p$-adic group over a coefficient ring different from the field of complex numbers has been widely…
We discuss a general model for effective quantum field theories (QFTs), which for example comprises quantum chromodynamics and quantum electrodynamics. We assume in the model a perturbative expansion of the Lagrangian with respect to a…
We define the fundamental group underlying to Lichtenbaum's Weil-\'etale cohomology for number rings. To this aim, we define the Weil-\'etale topos as a refinement of the Weil-\'etale sites introduced in \cite{Lichtenbaum}. We show that the…
In this paper, using some properties of fundamental groups and covering spaces of connected polyhedra and CW-complexes, we present topological proof for some famous theorems about finitely presented groups.
For W_N minimal model CFT's at Large N, we formulate a nonlinear field theory of primary operators. A classification of single-trace operators is given first based on which an interacting field theory operating in Fock space is built. A…
We study groups and rings definable in d-minimal expansions of ordered fields. We generalize to such objects some known results from o-minimality. In particular, we prove that we can endow a definable group with a definable topology making…
Feit and Tits (1978) proved that a nontrivial projective representation of minimal dimension of a finite extension of a finite nonabelian simple group $G$ factors through a projective representation of $G$, except for some groups of Lie…
We establish a precise isomorphism between the Schr\"odinger representation and the holomorphic representation in linear and affine field theory. In the linear case this isomorphism is induced by a one-to-one correspondence between complex…
We describe the representation theory of loop groups in terms of K-theory and noncommutative geometry. This is done by constructing suitable spectral triples associated with the level l projective unitary positive-energy representations of…
