In this second part of the `essay on the completion of quantum theory' we define the {\em unitary setting of completed quantum mechanics}, by adding as intrinsic data to those from Part I (arXiv:1711.08643) the choice of a north pole N and…
First a set of coherent states a la Klauder is formally constructed for the Coulomb problem in a curved space of constant curvature. Then the flat-space limit is taken to reduce the set for the radial Coulomb problem to a set of hydrogen…
This is the second paper concerning gauge-invariant coherent states for Loop Quantum Gravity. Here, we deal with the gauge group SU(2), this being a significant complication compared to the abelian U(1) case encountered in the previous…
New continuous group transforms, together with their discretization over a lattice of any density and admissible symmetry, are defined for a general compact simple Lie groups of rank $2\leq n<\infty$. Rank 1 transforms are known. Rank 2…
In this paper we discuss a proposal of coherent states for Loop Quantum Gravity. These states are labeled by a point in the phase space of General Relativity as captured by a spin-network graph. They are defined as the gauge invariant…
Two new types of coherent states associated with the C_{\lambda}-extended oscillator, where C_{\lambda} is the cyclic group of order \lambda, are introduced. The first ones include as special cases both the Barut-Girardello and the…
This is an introduction to the quantum groups, or rather to the simplest quantum groups. The idea is that the unitary group $U_N$ has a free analogue $U_N^+$, whose standard coordinates $u_{ij}\in C(U_N^+)$ are allowed to be free, and the…
By resorting to the Fock--Bargmann representation, we incorporate the quantum Weyl--Heisenberg ($q$-WH) algebra into the theory of entire analytic functions. The main tool is the realization of the $q$--WH algebra in terms of finite…
The first part of this work deals with a formalism of vector coherent states construction for a system of $M$ Fermi-type modes associated with $N$ bosonic modes. Then follows a generalization to a Hamiltonian describing the translational…
Two new types of coherent states associated with the $C_{\lambda}$-extended oscillator, where $C_{\lambda}$ is the cyclic group of order $\lambda$, are introduced. They satisfy a unity resolution relation in the $C_{\lambda}$-extended…
We show that the WKB approximation gives the exact result in the trace formula of ``$CQ^N$'', which is the non-compact counterpart of $CP^N$, in terms of the ``multi-periodic'' coherent state. We revisit the symplectic 2-forms on $CP^N$ and…
In this letter we consider models with N U(1) gauge fields together with N Kalb-Ramond fields in the large N limit. These models can be solved explicitely and exhibit confinement for a large class of bare actions. The confining phase is…
We present a systematic quantization scheme for bounded symplectic domains of the form $D \times G \subset T^\ast G$, where $D \subset \mathfrak{g}^\ast$ is a bounded region defined by algebraic inequalities and $G$ is a compact Lie group…
We study five-dimensional Yang-Mills theories compactified on an S^1/Z_2 orbifold. The fundamental Lagrangian naturally includes brane kinetic terms at the orbifold fixed points which are induced by quantum corrections of the bulk fields.…
The large N phase transition point is investigated in the heat kernel on the $U(N)$ group with respect to arbitrary boundary conditions. A simple functional relation is found relating the density of eigenvalues of the boundary field to the…
We show how to use quantum mechanics on the group manifold U(N) as a tool for problems in U(N) representation theory. The quantum mechanics reduces to free fermions on the circle, which in the large N limit become relativistic. The theory…
Coherent states for general systems with discrete spectrum, such as the bound states of the hydrogen atom, are discussed. The states in question satisfy: (1) continuity of labeling, (2) resolution of unity, (3) temporal stability, and (4)…
Generalized coherent states provide a means of connecting square integrable representations of a semi-simple Lie group with the symplectic geometry of some of its homogeneous spaces. In the first part of the present work this point of view…
Coherent states provide a natural connection of quantum systems to their classical limit and are employed in various fields of physics. Here we derive general systematic expansions, with respect to quantum parameters, of expectation values…
As part of a wider study of coherent states in (loop) quantum gravity, we introduce a modification to the standard construction, based on the recently introduced (non-commutative) flux representation. The resulting quantum states have some…
