Soft-operators, loosely speaking, are operators which create or annihilate zero energy massless particles on the celestial sphere in Minkowski space. The Lorentz group acts on the celestial sphere by conformal transformation and the…
The connection between space-time covariant representations (obtained by inducing from the Lorentz group) and irreducible unitary representations (induced from Wigner's little group) of the Poincar\'{e} group is re-examined in the massless…
We make a simple observation that the massless continuous spin representations of the Poincar\'e group are not present in perturbative string theory constructions. This represents one of the very few model-independent low-energy…
The problem of decomposition of unitary irreps of (super) tensorial (i.e. extended with tensorial charges) Poincar{\'e} algebra w.r.t. its different subalgebras is considered. This requires calculation of little groups for different…
Relativistic Quantum Mechanics suffers from structural problems which are traced back to the lack of a position operator $\hat{x}$, satisfying $[\hat{x},\hat{p}]=i\hbar\hat{1}$ with the ordinary momentum operator $\hat{p}$, in the basic…
In this paper, starting from pure group-theoretical point of view, we develop a regular approach to describing particles with different spins in the framework of a theory of scalar fields on the Poincare group. Such fields can be considered…
We quantize the generators of the little subgroup of the asymptotic Poincar\'e group of Lorentzian four-dimensional canonical quantum gravity in the continuum. In particular, the resulting ADM energy operator is densely defined on an…
In this article, we explore the boundedness properties of pseudo-differential operators on radial sections of line bundles over the Poincar\'e upper half plane, even when dealing with symbols of limited regularity. We first prove the…
In this paper, we consider the boundedness of a class of sublinear operators and their commutators by with rough kernels associated with Calderon-Zygmund operator, Hard-Littlewood maximal operator, fractional integral operator, fractional…
We define and study dense Frechet subalgebras of compact quantum groups consisting of elements rapidly decreasing with respect to an unbounded sequence of real numbers. Further, this sequence can be viewed as the eigenvalues of a Dirac-like…
We consider the deformation of the Poincar\'e group in 2+1 dimensions into the quantum double of the Lorentz group and construct Lorentz-covariant momentum-space formulations of the irreducible representations describing massive particles…
We extend some results of group representation theory and von Neumann algebras to the quaternionic Hilbert space case, proving the double commutant theorem (whose quaternionic proof requires a different procedure) and extend to the…
The spin of particles on a non-commutative geometry is investigated within the framework of the representation theory of the q-deformed Poincare algebra. An overview of the q-Lorentz algebra is given, including its representation theory…

A Poincar\'e multiplet of mass eigenstates $\bigl(P^2 - m^2\bigr)\Psi = 0$ cannot be a subspace of a space with a $D$-vector position operator $X=(X_0,\dots X_{D-1})$: the Heisenberg algebra $[P^m, X_n] = i \delta^m{}_n$ implies by a simple…
The monograph offers a coherent and self-contained treatment of massless (ladder) representations of the conformal group U(2,2) and their restriction to the de Sitter group Sp(2,2), combining rigorous representation-theoretic analysis with…
We consider a massive particle of arbitrary spin and the basis vectors that carry the unitary, irreducible representations of the Poincar\'e group. From the complex coefficients in normalizable superpositions of these basis vectors, we…
We show that the form of the recently proposed subleading soft graviton and gluon theorems in any dimension are severely constrained by elementary arguments based on Poincar\'e and gauge invariance as well as a self-consistency condition…
We present the rigorous derivation of covariant spin operators from a general linear combination of the components of the Pauli-Lubanski vector. It is shown that only two spin operators satisfy the spin algebra and transform properly under…
After a brief historical survey that emphasizes the role of the algebra obeyed by the Dirac operator, we examine an algebraic Dirac operator associated with Lie algebras and Lie algebra cosets. For symmetric cosets, its ``massless''…
