Using Perelman's approach for geometrical flows in terms of an entropy functional, the Higgs mechanism is studied dynamically along flows defined in the space of parameters and in fields space. The model corresponds to two-dimensional…
We define and study the harmonic curves on domains in $\mathbb{R}^n$ into the first Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^1$. These are the $C^2$-regular mappings which are critical points of the second Dirichlet energy and satisfy the weak…
Given a scalar parameter $q$, the $q$-deformed Heisenberg algebra $\mathcal{H}(q)$ is the unital associative algebra with two generators $A,B$ that satisfy the $q$-deformed commutation relation $AB-qBA= I$, where $I$ is the multiplicative…
We study deformations of plane curves in the similarity geometry. It is known that continuous deformations of smooth curves are described by the Burgers hierarchy. In this paper, we formulate the discrete deformation of discrete plane…
We analyze the h-deformations of the Lorentz group and their associated spacetimes. We prove that they have a twisted character and give explicitly the twisting matrices. After studying the representations of one of the deformed spacetime…
We compute Hochschild cohomology of projective hypersurfaces starting from the Gerstenhaber-Schack complex of the (restricted) structure sheaf. We are particularly interested in the second cohomology group and its relation with…
The perennial formalism is applied to the real, massive Klein-Gordon field on a globally-hyperbolic background space-time with compact Cauchy hypersurfaces. The parametrized form of this system is taken over from the accompanying paper. Two…
This paper studies the quantization of the deformation of Hessian structures on a two-dimensional vector space, in the framework of Koszul-Vinberg algebras. We analyze how Hessian structures can be deformed to obtain quantum structures…
We study the biholomorphic action of the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}_n$ on the Siegel domain $D_{n+1}$ ($n \geq 1$). Such $\mathbb{H}_n$-action allows us to obtain decompositions of both $D_{n+1}$ and the weighted Bergman spaces…
This paper establishes several fundamental structural properties of the $q$-Heisenberg algebra $\mathfrak{h}_n(q)$, a quantum deformation of the classical Heisenberg algebra. We first prove that when $q$ is not a root of unity, the global…
We give an overview of how to construct continued fractions on the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}$, the projective and planar Siegel models of the group, and how to perform computations on the group using matrices. We discuss and work with…
Quantum holonomies of closed paths on the torus $T^2$ are interpreted as elements of the Heisenberg group $H_1$. Group composition in $H_1$ corresponds to path concatenation and the group commutator is a deformation of the relator of the…
We introduce a general class of Heisenberg groups motivated by applications of algebraic Fourier theory. Basic properties are examined from a homological perspective.
We examine how to construct a spatial manifold and its geometry from the entanglement structure of an abstract quantum state in Hilbert space. Given a decomposition of Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ into a tensor product of factors, we…
We explore a geometric perspective on quantum field theory by considering the configuration space, where all field configurations reside. Employing $n$-particle irreducible effective actions constructed via Legendre transforms of the…
We construct most symmetric Saddle towers in Heisenberg space i.e. periodic minimal surfaces that can be seen as the desingularization of vertical planes intersecting equiangularly. The key point is the construction of a suitable barrier to…
We study the degeneration relations on the varieties of associative and Lie algebra structures on a fixed finite dimensional vector space and give a description of them in terms of Gerstenhaber formal deformations. We use this result to…
In this paper we study the notion of geodesic curvature of smooth horizontal curves parametrized by arc lenght in the Heisenberg group, that is the simplest sub-Riemannian structure. Our goal is to give a metric interpretation of this…
We prove that a compact Sasakian manifolds whose first and second basic Chern classes vanish is locally isomorphic to the real Heisenberg group equipped with the standard left invariant Sasakian structure up to deformation associated to a…
We construct a degeneration of the moduli space of Hitchin pairs on smooth projective curves when the curve degenerates to an irreducible curve with a single node. The degeneration constructed here is analogous to the models constructed by…
