We present a software that automatically generates a multiplet color basis for general $2 \to n$ processes in quantum chromodynamics (QCD). The construction process is guided by the decomposition of the corresponding $\mathrm{SU}(N_c)$…
We develop an algorithm for recursively constructing orthogonal multiplet bases for the color space of QCD, for any order of partons and any Nc. This recipe is then applied for explicitly constructing some of these bases. Using the bases, a…
We illustrate how QCD color structure elegantly can be decomposed into orthogonal multiplet bases corresponding to irreducible representations of SU(Nc) with the aid of Wigner 3j and 6j coefficients. We also show how to calculate the…
A complication in the treatment of any strongly charged particle is the SU(3) color structure. For the standard model quarks antiquarks and gluons there are various well-known strategies for dealing with the color structure, including…
A strategy for calculating the color structure needed for soft gluon resummation for processes with any number of colored partons is introduced using a N_c --> infinity inspired basis. In this basis a general formalism can be found at the…
Both the higher energy and the initial state colored partons contribute to making exact calculations in QCD color space more important at the LHC than at its predecessors. This is applicable whether the method of assessing QCD is fixed…
Let $P_N(R)$ be the space of all real polynomials in $N$ variables with the usual inner product $<, >$ on it, given by integrating over the unit sphere. We start by deriving an explicit combinatorial formula for the bilinear form…
An orthogonal product basis (OPB) of a finite-dimensional Hilbert space $H=H_1\otimes H_2\otimes\cdots\otimes H_n$ is an orthonormal basis of $H$ consisting of product vectors $x_1\otimes x_2\otimes\cdots\otimes x_n$. We show that the…
A Mathematica package for color summed calculations in QCD (SU(Nc)) is presented. Color contractions of any color amplitude appearing in QCD may be performed, and the package uses a syntax which is very similar to how color structure is…
The irreducible representations of SU(N) over a mixed quark-antiquark Fock space component have been studied for many years. In analogy to the case for the quark-only Fock space component, there exist efficient tools to classify the…
We present a new application of multi-orbit cyclic subspace codes to construct large optical orthogonal codes, with the aid of the multiplicative structure of finite fields extensions. This approach is different from earlier approaches…
We study the decomposition into $SU(N)$ irreducible representations (irreps) of the tensor product $27 \otimes 27$, where $27$ is the highest-dimensional $SU(N)$ irrep present in a two-gluon system, and explicitly construct all Hermitian…
Orthogonal polynomials on quadratic curves in the plane are studied. These include orthogonal polynomials on ellipses, parabolas, hyperbolas, and two lines. For an integral with respect to an appropriate weight function defined on any…
We describe a method for constructing $n$-orthogonal coordinate systems in constant curvature spaces. The construction proposed is a modification of Krichever's method for producing orthogonal curvilinear coordinate systems in the…
A recursive method for construction of symmetric irreducible representations of O(2l+1) in the O(2l + 1) supset O(3) basis for identical boson systems is proposed. The formalism is realized based on the group chain U(2l + 1) supset U(2l- 1)…
We give a simple construction of an orthogonal basis for the space of m by n matrices with row and column sums equal to zero. This vector space corresponds to the affine space naturally associated with the Birkhoff polytope, contingency…
An explicit algorithmic construction is given for orthogonal bases for spaces of homogeneous polynomials, in the context of Hermitean Clifford analysis, which is a higher dimensional function theory centred around the simultaneous null…
I gently introduce the diagrammatic birdtrack notation, first for vector algebra and then for permutations. After moving on to general tensors I review some recent results on Hermitian Young operators, gluon projectors, and multiplet bases…
With the couplings between the eight gluons constrained by the structure constants of the su(3) algebra in QCD, one would expect that there should exist a special basis (or set of bases) for the algebra wherein, unlike in a Cartan-Weyl…
Orthogonal surfaces are nice mathematical objects which have interesting connections to various fields, e.g., integer programming, monomial ideals and order dimension. While orthogonal surfaces in one or two dimensions are rather trivial…
