Let $G$ be a simple complex classical group and $\g$ its Lie algebra. Let $\U_\hbar(\g)$ be the Drinfeld-Jimbo quantization of the universal enveloping algebra $\U(\g)$. We construct an explicit $\U_\hbar(\g)$-equivariant quantization of…
Special orthogonal matrices with rational elements form the group SO(n,Q), where Q is the field of rational numbers. A theorem describing the structure of an arbitrary matrix from this group is proved. This theorem yields an algorithm for…
In this short review we introduce group field theory, a particular class of random tensor models, which represents nowadays one of the candidates for a fundamental theory of quantum gravity. We insist on the combinatorial richness of…
The concept of universal T matrix, recently introduced by Fronsdal and Galindo in the framework of quantum groups, is here discussed as a generalization of the exponential mapping. New examples related to inhomogeneous quantum groups of…

We give a review of modern approaches to constructing formal solutions to integrable hierarchies of mathematical physics, whose coefficients are answers to various enumerative problems. The relationship between these approaches and…
We investigate inhomogeneous quantum groups G built from a quantum group H and translations. The corresponding commutation relations contain inhomogeneous terms. Under certain conditions (which are satisfied in our study of quantum Poincare…

We show that the Dirac equation can be rewritten as a relation describing the fundamental symmetry group of special topological manifold corresponding to the Dirac wave field. It leads to unification of the time-space and internal…
Quantum groups and non-commutative spaces have been repeatedly utilized in approaches to quantum gravity. They provide a mathematically elegant cut-off, often interpreted as related to the Planck-scale quantum uncertainty in position. We…
Classical distributional symmetries can be described as invariance under the actions of semigroups (or groups) of matrix structures, and subsequently under the coactions of continuous functions on the matrix semigroups (or groups) generated…
A unified framework for different formulations of quantum theoery is introduced specifying what is meant by a quantum mechanical theory in general.
This is a brief introduction to general relativity, designed for both students and teachers of the subject. While there are many excellent expositions of general relativity, few adequately explain the geometrical meaning of the basic…
The concept of a particle is ambiguous in quantum field theory. It is generally agreed that particles depend not only on spacetime, but also on coordinates used to parametrise spacetime points. One of us has in contrast proposed a…
Starting from noncommutative generalization of Minkowski space we consider quantum deformed relativistic symmetries which lead to the modification of kinematics of special relativity. The noncommutative field theory framework described by…
We present a novel, universal description of quantum entanglement using group theory and generalized characteristic functions. It leads to new reformulations of the separability problem, and the positivity of partial transpose (PPT)…
Using the Einstein energy-mass relation and a concept of cross-correlating material unit-fields (pp. 1-148), the quantum equation for united gravitation and electromagnetism is derived (pp. 148-164). The unified equation yields all known…

A geometric framework for describing quantum particles on a possibly curved background is proposed. Natural constructions on certain distributional bundles (`quantum bundles') over the spacetime manifold yield a quantum ``formalism'' along…
Twenty years ago, by extending the Wightman axiom framework, it has been found possible to quantize only a conformal factor of the gravitational field. Gravitons being excluded from this quantum scalar field theory, numerous attempts were…
