A hermitian algebra is a unital associative ${\mathbb C}$-algebra endowed with an involution such that the spectra of self-adjoint elements are contained in ${\mathbb R}$. In the case of an algebra ${\mathcal A}$ endowed with a…
Schubert polynomials are distinguished representatives of Schubert cycles in the cohomology of the flag variety. In the spirit of Bergeron and Sottile, we use the Bruhat order to give $(n-1)!$ different combinatorial formulas for the…
This paper begins the study of infinite-dimensional modules defined on bicomplex numbers. It generalizes a number of results obtained with finite-dimensional bicomplex modules. The central concept introduced is the one of a bicomplex…
We study a class of algebras with non-Lie commutation relations whose symplectic leaves are surfaces of revolution: a cylinder or a torus. Over each of such surfaces we introduce a family of complex structures and Hilbert spaces of…
We introduce a natural generalization of the definition of a symmetric Hopf algebroid, internal to any symmetric monoidal category with coequalizers that commute with the monoidal product. Motivation for this is the study of Heisenberg…
Let X be the flag variety of the symplectic group. We propose a theory of combinatorially explicit Schubert polynomials which represent the Schubert classes in the Borel presentation of the cohomology ring of X. We use these polynomials to…
This article constructs the Hilbert space for the algebra $\alpha \beta - e^{i \theta} \beta \alpha = 1 $ that provides a continuous interpolation between the Clifford and Heisenberg algebras. This particular form is inspired by the…
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 examine Hilbert bimodules which possess a (generally unbounded) involution. Topics considered include a linking algebra representation, duality, locality, and the role of these bimodules in noncommutative differential geometry.
Analogous to Weil-Petersson quasicircles, we investigate infinite circle patterns in the Euclidean plane parameterized by discrete harmonic functions of finite Dirichlet energy. The space of such circle patterns forms an…
In principle, non-Hermitian quantum equations of motion can be formulated using as a starting point either the Heisenberg's or the Schr\"odinger's picture of quantum dynamics. Here it is shown in both cases how to map the algebra of…
The main classical result of Schubert calculus is that multiplication rules for the basis of Schubert cycles inside the cohomology ring of the Grassmannian $G(n,m)$ are the same as multiplication rules for the basis of Schur polynomials in…
Studies have shown that the Hilbert spaces of non-Hermitian systems require nontrivial metrics. Here, we demonstrate how evolution dimensions, in addition to time, can emerge naturally from a geometric formalism. Specifically, in this…
We study the algebraic aspects of equivariant quantum cohomology algebra of the flag manifold. We introduce and study the quantum double Schubert polynomials, which are the Lascoux-Schutzenberger type representatives of the equivariant…
We extend to infinite dimensional separable Hilbert spaces the Schur convexity property of eigenvalues of a symmetric matrix with real entries. Our framework includes both the case of linear, selfadjoint, compact operators, and that of…
We introduce the notion of cyclic cohomology of an A-infinity algebra and show that the deformations of an A-infinity algebra which preserve an invariant inner product are classified by this cohomology. We use this result to construct some…
For any finite-dimensional Hopf algebra $A$ there exists a natural associative algebra homomorphism $D(A) \to H(A)$ between its Drinfeld double $D(A)$ and its Heisenberg double $H(A)$. We construct this homomorphism using a pair of…
Consider a partial flag variety $X$ which is not a grassmaninan. Consider also its cohomology ring ${\rm H}^*(X,\ZZ)$ endowed with the base formed by the Poincar\'e dual classes of the Schubert varieties. In \cite{Richmond:recursion}, E.…
Umbral calculus can be viewed as an abstract theory of the Heisenberg commutation relation $[\hat P,\hat M]=1$. In ordinary quantum mechanics $\hat P$ is the derivative and $\hat M$ the coordinate operator. Here we shall realize $\hat P$ as…
Let g be a complex semisimple Lie algebra and let G' be the Langlands dual group. We give a description of the cohomology algebra of an arbitrary spherical Schubert variety in the loop Grassmannian for G' as a quotient of the form…
