We propose a geometric interpretation for the Stokes phenomenon in de Sitter spacetime that particles are produced in even dimensions but not in odd dimensions. The scattering amplitude for a quantum field between the in-vacuum and the…
The q-deformation of the Lie algebras underlying the standard field theories leads to a pair of dual algebras. We describe a simple choice of possible field theories based on these derived algebras. One of these approximates the standard…

We comprehensively review the quantum theory of the polarization properties of light. In classical optics, these traits are characterized by the Stokes parameters, which can be geometrically interpreted using the Poincar\'e sphere.…
The main notions of the quantum groups: coproduct, action and coaction, representation and corepresentation are discussed using simplest examples: $GL_q(2)$, $sl_q(2)$, $q$-oscillator algebra ${\cal A}(q)$, and reflection equation algebra.…

A group theoretical understanding of the two dimensional fractional supersymmetry is given in terms of the quantum Poincare group at roots of unity. The fractional supersymmetry algebra and the quantum group dual to it are presented and the…
In Part I of this series we presented the general ideas of applying group-algebraic methods for describing quantum systems. The treatment was there very "ascetic" in that only the structure of a locally compact topological group was used.…
Based on the vanishing of the second Hochschild cohomology group of the enveloping algebra of the Heisenberg algebra it is shown that differential algebras coming from quantum groups do not provide a non-trivial deformation of quantum…
We construct representations of the quantum algebras ~$U_{q{\bf q}}(gl(n))$ and ~$U_{q{\bf q}}(sl(n))$~ which are in duality with the multiparameter quantum groups ~$GL_{q{\bf q}}(n)$, ~$SL_{q{\bf q}}(n)$,~ respectively. These objects…
We give a diagrammatic presentation in terms of generators mod relations of the representation category of $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_n)$. More precisely, we produce all the relations among $\rm{SL}_n$-webs, thus describing the full subcategory…
The representations of the pointed Hopf algebras $U$ and $\su$ are described, where $U$ and $\su$ can be regarded as deformations of the usual quantized enveloping algebras $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}(3))$ and the small quantum groups respectively.…
We introduce a formulation of quantum theory (QT) as a general probabilistic theory but expressed via quasi-expectation operators (QEOs). This formulation provides a direct interpretation of density matrices as quasi-moment matrices. Using…
We investigate the braid group representations arising from categories of representations of twisted quantum doubles of finite groups. For these categories, we show that the resulting braid group representations always factor through finite…
We construct the positive principal series representations for $U_q(g_R)$ where $g$ is of type $B_n$, $C_n$, $F_4$ or $G_2$, parametrized by $R^r$ where $r$ is the rank of $g$. We show that under the representations, the generators of the…
In this paper we consider the representation theory of a non-standard quantization of sl(2). This paper contains several results which have applications in quantum topology, including the classification of projective indecomposable modules…
Recently, a remarkable correspondence has been unveiled between a certain class of ordinary linear differential equations (ODE) and integrable models. In the first part of the report, we survey the results concerning the 2nd order…

We discuss the $q$ deformation of Weyl-Heisenberg algebra in connection with the von Neumann theorem in Quantum Mechanics. We show that the $q$-deformation parameter labels the Weyl systems in Quantum Mechanics and the unitarily…
