We give a classification of the matrices in the unitary group U(1,1;H),where H is the division ring of the real quaternions. To this end, we consider the complex representation phi(P) for P in U(1,1;H). Next, we compute the characteristic…
For the quaternionic unit ball $\mathbb{B}$, let us denote by $\mathcal{M}(\mathbb{B})$ the set of slice regular M\"obius transformations mapping $\mathbb{B}$ onto itself. We introduce a smooth manifold structure on…
We describe the orbit space of the action of the group $\mathrm{Sp}(2)\mathrm{Sp}(1)$ on the real Grassmann manifolds $\mathrm{Gr}_k(\mathbb{H}^2)$ in terms of certain quaternionic matrices of Moore rank not larger than $2$. We then give a…
The u-invariant of a field is the supremum of the dimensions of anisotropic quadratic forms over the field. We define corresponding u-invariants for hermitian and generalised quadratic forms over a division algebra with involution in…
We consider the manifold $Fl_n(\mathbb{H})=Sp(n)/Sp(1)^n$ of all complete flags in $\mathbb{H}^n$, where $\mathbb{H}$ is the skew-field of quaternions. We study its equivariant $K$-theory rings with respect to the action of two groups:…
Let $G$ be a non-elementary discrete subgroup of $\mathrm{Sp}(2,1)$. We show that if the sum of diagonal entries of each element of $G$ is a complex number, then $G$ is conjugate to a subgroup of $\mathrm{U}(2,1)$.
In the space $\hh$ of quaternions, we investigate the natural, invariant geometry of the open, unit disc $\Delta_{\hh}$ and of the open half-space $\hh^{+}$. These two domains are diffeomorphic via a Cayley-type transformation. We first…
Let $G$ be a commutative affine algebraic group over a field $F$, and let $H \colon \mathrm{Fields}_{F} \to \mathrm{AbGrps}$ be a functor. A (homomorphic) $H$-invariant of $G$ is a natural transformation $\mathrm{Tors}(-, G) \to H$, where…
The spaces of Sp(n)-, Sp(n)U(1)- and Sp(n)Sp(1)- invariant, translation invariant, continuous convex valuations on the quaternionic vector space H^n are studied. Combinatorial dimension formulas involving Young diagrams and Schur…
The SU$(1,1)$ group plays a fundamental role in various areas of physics, including quantum mechanics, quantum optics, and representation theory. In this work we revisit the holomorphic discrete series representations of SU$(1,1)$, with a…
In this paper, Grand Unified theories are discussed in terms of quaternions and octonions by using the relation between quaternion basis elements with Pauli matrices and Octonions with Gell Mann \lambda matrices. Connection between the…
M\"obius transformations of the extended complex plane are at the crossroads of many interesting topics, e.g., they form a group under composition, are the simplest form of rational function, and are a path to Lie theory. Quaternionic…
We consider the group M of all polynomial matrices U(z) = U0 + U1*z + U2*z*z +...+Uk*z*...*z, k=0,1,... that satisfy equation U(z)*D*U(z)" = D with the diagonal n*n matrix D=diag{-1,1,1,...1}. Here n > 1, U(z)" = U0" + U1"*z + U2"*z*z +…
An element of a group is called \emph{reversible} if it is conjugate to its inverse. While reversibility in the quaternionic M\"{o}bius group $\mathrm{PSL}(2,\mathbb{H})$ has traditionally been studied using geometric and dynamical methods,…
The representation theory of the group U(1,q) is discussed in detail because of its possible application in a quaternion version of the Salam-Weinberg theory. As a consequence, from purely group theoretical arguments we demonstrate that the…
Holomorphic quaternion functions only admit affine functions; thus, the M\"obius transformation for these functions, which we call quaternionic holomorphic transformation (QHT), only comprises similarity transformations. We determine a…
A universal quasitriangular $R$--matrix for the non-standard quantum (1+1) Poincar\'e algebra $U_ziso(1,1)$ is deduced by imposing analyticity in the deformation parameter $z$. A family $g_\mu$ of ``quantum graded contractions" of the…
We show that the quantum invariants arising from typical representations of the quantum group $U_h\mathfrak{sl}(2|1)$ are q-holonomic. In particular, this implies the existence of an underlying field theory for which this family of…
The quaternionic unit ball carries a Riemannian metric built using regular M\"obius transformations: the slice Riemannian metric. We prove that the geometry induced by this metric is strongly related to the group $\mathrm{Sp}(1,1)$. We also…
To construct ternary "quaternions" following Hamilton we must introduce two "imaginary "units, $q_1$ and $q_2$ with propeties $q_1^n=1$ and $q_2^m=1$. The general is enough difficult, and we consider the $m=n=3$. This case gives us the…
