The loop space of the Riemann sphere consisting of all $C^k$ or Sobolev $W^{k,p}$ maps from the circle $S^1$ to the sphere is an infinite dimensional complex manifold. We compute the Picard group of holomorphic line bundles on this loop…

It is well known that the closed subspaces of a Hilbert space form an orthomodular lattice. Elements of this orthomodular lattice are the propositions of a quantum mechanical system represented by the Hilbert space, and by Gleason's theorem…

Wigner's unitary representation of the Lorentz group is extended to a representation of the complex orthosymplectic Lie super group OSp_C(1|2) acting on Minkowski (3,1|4)-dimensional super space essentially by Hermitean conjugation. The…

We continue our study of the representations of the Reflection Equation Algebra (=REA) on Hilbert spaces, focusing again on the REA constructed from the $R$-matrix associated to the standard $q$-deformation of $GL(N,\mathbb{C})$ for…

We begin the study of unitary representations of Hecke algebras of complex reflections groups. We obtain a complete classification for the Hecke algebra of the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_n$ over the complex numbers. Interestingly, the…

The Hilbert spaces for stable scattering states and particles are determined by the representations of the characterizing Euclidean and Poincar\'e group and given, respectively, by the square integrable functions on the momentum 2-spheres…

We propose a framework for the free field construction of algebras of local observables which uses as an input the Bisognano-Wichmann relations and a representation of the Poincare' group on the one-particle Hilbert space. The abstract real…

Matrix elements and spherical functions of irreducible representations of the de Sitter group are studied on the various homogeneous spaces of this group. It is shown that a universal covering of the de Sitter group gives rise to quaternion…

For any complex reflection group $G=G(m,p,n)$, we prove that the $G$-invariants of the division ring of fractions of the $n$:th tensor power of the quantum plane is a quantum Weyl field and give explicit parameters for this quantum Weyl…

Unitary principal series representations of the conformal group appear in the dS/CFT correspondence. These are infinite dimensional irreducible representations, without highest weights. In earlier work of Guijosa and the author it was shown…

This paper aims at reviewing and analysing the method of reflections. The latter is an iterative procedure designed to linear boundary value problems set in multiply connected domains. Being based on a decomposition of the domain boundary,…

We give a derivation of the non-Markovian quantum state diffusion equation of Di{\'o}si and Strunz starting from a model of a quantum mechanical system coupled to a bosonic bath. We show that the complex trajectories arises as a consequence…

We introduce the moduli space of generic piecewise circular $n$-gons in the Riemann sphere and relate it to a moduli space of Legendrian polygons. We prove that when $n=2k$, this moduli space contains a connected component homeomorphic to…

This paper aims at the following results: \begin{enumerate} \item The class of all $*$-regular rings forms a variety. \item A subdirectly irreducible $*$-regular ring $R$ is faithfully representable (i.e. isomorphic to a subring of an…

A system of generalized coherent states for the de Sitter group obeying the Klein-Gordon equation and corresponding to the massive spin zero particles over the de Sitter space is considered. This allows us to construct the quantized scalar…

This is a continuation of a previous joint work with Robert Weston on the quantum group invariant XXZ spin-chain (math-ph/0703085). The previous results on quasi-Hermiticity of this integrable model are briefly reviewed and then connected…

Let $E$ and $P$ be subsets of a Banach space $X$, and let us define the unit sphere around $E$ in $P$ as the set $$Sph(E;P) :=\left\{ x\in P : \|x-b\|=1 \hbox{ for all } b\in E \right\}.$$ Given a C$^*$-algebra $A$, and a subset $E\subset…

Let $G$ be a discrete countable group, and let $\Gamma$ be an almost normal subgroup. In this paper we investigate the classification of (projective) unitary representations $\pi$ of $G$ into the unitary group of the Hilbert space…

For a connected reductive group $ G $ defined over a number field $ k $, we construct the Schwartz space $ \mathcal{S}(G(k)\backslash G(\mathbb{A})) $. This space is an adelic version of Casselman's Schwartz space $…
