We construct homomorphic images of $su(n,n)^{\mathbb C}$ in Weyl Algebras ${\mathcal H}_{2nr}$. More precisely, and using the Bernstein filtration of ${\mathcal H}_{2nr}$, $su(n,n)^{\mathbb C}$ is mapped into degree $2$ elements with the…
The problem of constructing maximal equiangular tight frames or SICs was raised by Zauner in 1998. Four years ago it was realized that the problem is closely connected to a major open problem in number theory. We discuss why such a…
The purpose of this note is to classify unital cubic maps from the cyclic group of order $3$ into an arbitrary non-abelian group. We show that the universal group admitting a unital cubic map from the cyclic group of order $3$ is infinite,…
We investigate certain $Z_3$-graded associative algebras with cubic $Z_3$-invariant constitutive relations. The invariant forms on finite algebras of this type are given in the low dimensional cases with two or three generators. We show how…
The finite Heisenberg group knows when the dimension of Hilbert space is a square number. Remarkably, it then admits a representation such that the entire Clifford group --- the automorphism group of the Heisenberg group --- is represented…
Let S be a subsemigroup of an abelian torsion-free group G. If S is a positive cone of G, then all C*-algebras generated by faithful isometrical non-unitary representations of S are canonically isomorphic. Proved by Murphy, this statement…
A binary linear code whose permutation automorphism group has a fixed point free permutation of order $3$ is called a binary cubic code. The scope of this paper is to investigate the structural properties of binary cubic codes. Let $C$ be a…
We continue the study of non-commutative operator graphs generated by resolutions of identity covariant with respect to unitary actions of the circle group and the Heisenber-Weyl group as well. It is shown that the graphs generated by the…
We consider a version of the extended Clifford Group which is defined in terms of a finite Galois field in odd prime power dimension. We show that Neuhauser's result, that with the appropriate choice of phases the standard (or metaplectic)…
In the standard basis exact expressions for the components of SIC vectors (belonging to a symmetric informationally complete POVM) are typically very complicated. We show that a simple transformation to a basis adapted to the symmetries of…
We work out instances of a general conjecture on congruences between Hecke eigenvalues of induced and cuspidal automorphic representations of a reductive group, modulo divisors of certain critical L-values, in the case that the group is a…
We introduce a new method to study rational conjugacy of torsion units in integral group rings using integral and modular representation theory. Employing this new method, we verify the first Zassenhaus Conjecture for the group…
Let $S$ be the sphere of dimension $n-1, n\geq 4$. Let $(\pi_{\lambda})_{\lambda\in \mathbb C}$ be the scalar principle series of representations of the conformal group $SO_0(1,n)$, realized on $\mathcal C^\infty(S)$. For $\boldsymbol…
We discuss generalizations of the notion of i) the group of unitary elements of a (real or complex) finite dimensional C*-algebra, ii) gauge transformations and iii) (real) automorphisms, in the framework of compact quantum group theory and…
It's known that if $d^2$ vectors from $d$-dimensional Hilbert space $H$ form a SIC-POVM (SIC for short) then tensor square of those vectors form an equiangular tight frame on the symmetric subspace of $H\otimes H$. We prove that for any SIC…
We introduce a family of matrix dilogarithms, which are automorphisms of C^N tensor C^N, N being any odd positive integer, associated to hyperbolic ideal tetrahedra equipped with an additional decoration. The matrix dilogarithms satisfy…
We consider the ring of coinvariants for modular representations of cyclic groups of prime order. For all cases for which explicit generators for the ring of invariants are known, we give a reduced Gr\"obner basis for the Hilbert ideal and…
A vector subspace $\cls$ of $\IM_n(\IC)$ is called unital operator system if $x \in \cls$ if and only if $x^* \in \cls$ and the identity operator $I_n \in \cls$, where $n$ is any fixed positive integer. Let $C^*(\cls)$ be the $C^*$…
While 2-dimensional quantum systems are known to exhibit non-permutation, braid group statistics, it is widely expected that quantum statistics in 3-dimensions is solely determined by representations of the permutation group. This…
In the four-dimensional Hilbert space, there exist 16 Heisenberg--Weyl (HW) covariant symmetric informationally complete positive operator valued measures (SIC~POVMs) consisting of 256 fiducial states on a single orbit of the Clifford…
