The paper is devoted to the description of the varieties of complex 5-dimensional nilpotent Jordan superalgebras. We find all representatives for the isomorphism classes, using the Jordan normal form, results of simultaneous matrix…
We study the coupling between a photonic crystal cavity and an off-resonant quantum dot under resonant excitation of the cavity or the quantum dot. Linewidths of the quantum dot and the cavity as a function of the excitation laser power are…
We define and study Sobolev spaces associated with Jacobi expansions. We prove that these Sobolev spaces are isomorphic to Jacobi potential spaces. As a technical tool, we also show some approximation properties of Poisson-Jacobi integrals.
This note adds to the recent spate of derivations of the probabilistic apparatus of finite-dimensional quantum theory from various axiomatic packages. We offer two different axiomatic packages that lead easily to the Jordan algebraic…
This is the second of two works concerning the Sobolev calculus on metric measure spaces and its applications. In this work, we focus on several approaches to vector calculus in the non-smooth setting of complete and separable metric spaces…
In three dimensions, a free, periodic scalar field is related by duality to an abelian gauge field. Here I explore aspects of this duality when both theories are quantized on a Riemann surface of genus g. At higher genus, duality involves…
Given a pair of real functions $(k,f)$, we study the conditions they must satisfy for $k+\lambda f$ to be the curvature in the arc-length of a closed planar curve for all real $\lambda$. Several equivalent conditions are pointed out,…
In this paper, we classify Jordan superalgebras of dimension up to three over an algebraically closed field of characteristic different of two. Our main motivation to obtain such classification comes out from the intention to give an answer…
We compare a number of different definitions of structure algebras and TKK constructions for Jordan (super)algebras appearing in the literature. We demonstrate that, for unital superalgebras, all the definitions of the structure algebra and…
Jordan isomorphisms of rings are defined by two equations. The first one is the equation of additivity while the second one concerns multiplicativity with respect to the so-called Jordan product. In this paper we present results showing…
We characterize Lie -Backlund vector fields in infinite dimensional jet bundles $J^\infty(\mathbb{R}^n, \mathbb{R}^m)$ that can be exponentiated to flows with each component depending on a finite set of variables. We show that for $m=1$…
We study the duality of moduli of k- and (n-k)-dimensional slices of euclidean n-cubes, and establish the optimal upper bound 1.
The second domain variation of the $p$-capacity and the $q$ - torsional rigidity for compact sets in $R^d, d\geq3$ with $1<p<d$ is computed. Conditions on $p$ and $q>1$ are given such that the ball is a local minimzer or maximizer of the…
We show for any oriented surface, possibly with a boundary, how to generalize Kramers-Wannier duality to the world of quantum groups. The generalization is motivated by quantization of Poisson-Lie T-duality from the string theory.…
We consider a planar gravitating thick domain wall of the $\lambda \phi^4$ theory as a spacetime with finite thickness glued to two vacuum spacetimes on each side of it. Darmois junction conditions written on the boundaries of the thick…
A duality relation between the long-time dynamics of a quantum Brownian particle in a tilted ratchet potential and a driven dissipative tight-binding model is reported. It relates a situation of weak dissipation in one model to strong…
We consider the Dirichlet problem for a class of semilinear equations on two dimensional convex domains. We give a sufficient condition for the solution to be concave. Our condition uses comparison with ellipses, and is motivated by an idea…
The relationship between Jordan and Lie coalgebras is established. We prove that from any Jordan coalgebra $\langle A, \Delta\rangle$, it is possible to construct a Lie coalgebra $\langle L(A), \Delta_{L}\rangle$. Moreover, any dual algebra…
Properties of metrics and pairs consisting of left and right connections are studied on the bimodules of differential 1-forms. Those bimodules are obtained from the derivation based calculus of an algebra of matrix valued functions, and an…
This thesis discusses various aspects of duality in quantum field theory and string theory. In the first part we consider duality in topological quantum field theories, concentrating on the Donaldson and Seiberg-Witten theories as (dual)…
