A class of highest weight irreducible representations of the algebra $U_h(A_\infty)$, the quantum analogue of the completion and central extension $A_\infty$ of the Lie algebra $gl_\infty$, is constructed. It is considerably larger than the…

There are two well-known ways of describing elements of the rotation group SO$(m)$. First, according to the Cartan-Dieudonn\'e theorem, every rotation matrix can be written as an even number of reflections. And second, they can also be…

We establish and analyze a new relationship between the matrices describing an arbitrary component of a spin $s$, where $2s\in \mathbb{Z}^+$, and the matrices of $\mathbb{C}P^{2s}$ two-dimensional Euclidean sigma models. The spin matrices…

We show that in the presence of suitable commutator estimates, a projective unitary representation of the Lie algebra of a connected and simply connected Lie group G exponentiates to G. Our proof does not assume G to be finite--dimensional…

In the monograph arXiv:2108.03453, we define the notion of a unipotent representation of a complex reductive group. The representations we define include, as a proper subset, all special unipotent representations in the sense of…

Higher-matter is defined by higher-representation of a symmetry algebra, such as the $p$-form symmetries, higher-group symmetries or higher-categorical symmetries. In this paper, we focus on the cases of higher-group symmetries, which are…

Higher-spin vertices containing up to quintic interactions at the Lagrangian level are explicitly calculated in the one-form sector of the non-linear unfolded higher-spin equations using a $\beta\to-\infty$--shifted contracting homotopy…

We study the IIB matrix model in an interpretation where the matrices are differential operators defined on curved spacetimes. In this interpretation, coefficients of higher derivative operators formally appear to be massless higher spin…

Generalized symmetries often appear in the form of emergent symmetries in low energy effective descriptions of quantum many-body systems. Non-invertible symmetries are a particularly exotic class of generalized symmetries, in that they are…

Let $M$ be a tensor product of unitarizable irreducible highest weight modules over the Lie (super)algebra $\mathcal{G}$, where $\mathcal{G}$ is $\mathfrak{gl}(m|n)$, $\mathfrak{osp}(2m|2n)$ or $\mathfrak{spo}(2m|2n)$. We show, using super…

Lattice gauge theories are a powerful language to theoretically describe a variety of strongly correlated systems, including frustrated magnets, high-$T_c$ superconductors, and topological phases. However, in many cases gauge fields couple…
