In this Master of Science Thesis I introduce geometric algebra both from the traditional geometric setting of vector spaces, and also from a more combinatorial view which simplifies common relations and operations. This view enables us to…
Deformed $\mathfrak{g}_2$ exceptional applications are introduced via the Clifford algebra-parametrized formalism. Using the products between multivectors of $\cl_{0,7}$, the Clifford algebra over the metric vector space $\RR^{0,7}$, and…
The first part of this thesis deals with certain properties of the quantum symmetric and exterior algebras of Type 1 representations of $U_q(g)$ defined by Berenstein and Zwicknagl. We define a notion of a commutative algebra object in a…
We briefly review the overlap formalism for chiral gauge theories, the overlap Dirac operator for massless fermions and its connection to domain wall fermions. We describe properties of the overlap Dirac operator, and methods to implement…
The E. Cartan's equations defining "simple" spinors (renamed "pure" by C. Chevalley) are interpreted as equations of motions for fermion multiplets in momentum spaces which, in a constructive approach based bilinearly on those spinors,…
We reconsider the problem of electrically charged, massless fermions scattering off magnetic monopoles. The interpretation of the outgoing states has long been a puzzle as, in certain circumstances, they necessarily carry fractional quantum…
Flat bands imply lack of itinerancy due to some constraints that, in principle, results in anomalous behaviors with randomness. By a molecular orbital (MO) representation of the flat band systems, random MO models are introduced where the…
It is well-known that unlike space-like and time-like hypersurfaces, null hypersurfaces in Lorentzian manifolds do not naturally inherit an affine connection from the spacetime in which they are embedded. On the other hand, recent…
The algebraic formulation of discrete $P$ and $T$ space-time symmetries is related to fermion quantum numbers defined by a $Cl_{3,3}$ sub-algebra of the $Cl_{7,7}$ Clifford Unification algebra. Fermion decays and interactions have been…
We examine the hypothesis that space-time is a product of a continuous four-dimensional manifold times a finite space. A new tensorial notation is developed to present the various constructs of noncommutative geometry. In particular, this…
Clifford algebras and Majorana conditions are analyzed in any spacetime. An index labeling inequivalent $\Gamma$-structures up to orthogonal conjugations is introduced. Inequivalent charge-operators in even-dimensions, invariant under Wick…
The theory of a massless two-dimensional scalar field with a periodic boundary interaction is considered. At a critical value of the period this system defines a conformal field theory and can be re-expressed in terms of free fermions,…
We investigate hidden symmetries in minimally coupled scalar field cosmology within the FLRW universe, and a perfect fluid with and without interaction to the scalar field. We show that for an exponential potential there exists a set of…
We start from a Lorentzian action in a deformed light-cone background and applying the method of null reduction leads to a Carrollian action in one lower spacetime dimensions. We also identify the correct light-cone definitions of the…
We discuss how basic Clifford algebra and indeed all of matrix algebra and matrix representations of finite groups comes from Iterants: very elementary processes such as an alternation of plus and minus one ...+-+-+- .... One can think of…
Carrollian amplitudes are flat space amplitudes written in position space at null infinity which can be re-interpreted as correlators in a putative dual Carrollian CFT. We argue that these amplitudes are the natural objects obtained in the…
Using the formalism of discrete quantum group gauge theory, one can construct the quantum algebras of observables for the Hamiltonian Chern-Simons model. The resulting moduli algebras provide quantizations of the algebra of functions on the…
We present field theoretical descriptions of massless (2+1) dimensional nonrelativistic fermions in an external magnetic field, in terms of a fermionic and bosonic second quantized language. An infinite dimensional algebra, $W_{\infty}$,…
We study the relation between boundary conditions and categorical symmetries of two-dimensional fermionic conformal field theories. We determine all anomaly-free invertible global symmetries of two free complex Weyl fermions, which take the…
The super Macdonald polynomials indexed by the super partitions form a basis of the level zero super Fock module (combinatorial representation) of the quantum toroidal algebra $\mathcal{U}_{q,t}(\widehat{\widehat{\mathfrak{gl}}}_{1|1})$.…
