The algebra of the relativistic composition of velocities is shown to be isomorphic to an algebraic loop defined on division algebras. This makes calculations in special relativity effortless and straightforward, unlike the standard…
Algebraic quantum field theory is an approach to relativistic quantum physics, notably the theory of elementary particles, which complements other modern developments in this field. It is particularly powerful for structural analysis but…
A VB-algebroid is a vector bundle object in the category of Lie algebroids. We attach to every VB-algebroid a differential graded Lie algebra and we show that it controls deformations of the VB-algebroid structure. Several examples and…
The $L_\infty$-algebra is an algebraic structure suitable for describing deformation problems. In this paper we construct one $L_\infty$-algebra, which turns out to be a differential graded Lie algebra, to control the deformations of Lie…
In order to obtain a framework in which both non-holonomic mechanical systems and non-holonomic mechanical systems with symmetry can be described, we introduce in this paper the notion of a Lagrangian system on a subbundle of a Lie…
Understanding, finding, or even deciding on the existence of real solutions to a system of equations is a very difficult problem with many applications. While it is hopeless to expect much in general, we know a surprising amount about these…
We construct a geometric system from which the Hall algebra can be recovered. This system inherently satisfies higher associativity conditions and thus leads to a categorification of the Hall algebra. We then suggest how to use this…
The study of the relation between Lie algebras and groups, and especially the derivation of new algebras from them, is a problem of great interest in mathematics and physics, because finding a new Lie group from an already known one also…
We present a systematic study of symmetries, invariants and moduli spaces of classes of coframes. We introduce a classifying Lie algebroid to give a complete description of the solution to Cartan's realization problem that applies to both…
We develop an elementary theory of partially additive rings as a foundation of ${\mathbb F}_1$-geometry. Our approach is so concrete that an analog of classical algebraic geometry is established very straightforwardly. As applications, (1)…
We describe the role of algebraic extensions in the theory of commutative, unital normed algebras, with special attention to uniform algebras. We shall also compare these constructions and show how they are related to each other.
This note introduces the construction of relational symplectic groupoids as a way to integrate every Poisson manifold. Examples are provided and the equivalence, in the integrable case, with the usual notion of symplectic groupoid is…
We present a generalization of the notion of an algebra norm relevant to real finite-dimensional unital associative algebras. Among other things, this leads to a novel set of algebra isomorphism invariants, some of which are computationally…
A set of linear second-order differential equations is converted into a semigroup, whose algebraic structure is used to generate many novel equations. Two independent methods that can be used to derive the equations of the semigroup are…
We introduce the notion of a symplectic Lie affgebroid and their Lagrangian submanifolds in order to describe the Lagrangian (Hamiltonian) dynamics on a Lie affgebroid in terms of this type of structures. Several examples are discussed.
I defend algebraicism, according to which physical fields can be understood in terms of their structural relations without reference to a spacetime manifold, as a genuine relationalist view against the conventional wisdom that it is…
We introduce partial group algebras with relations in a purely algebraic framework. Given a group and a set of relations, we define an algebraic partial action and prove that the resulting partial skew group ring is isomorphic to the…
In this note, we provide some categorical perspectives on the relativization construction arising from quantum measurement theory in the presence of symmetries and occupying a central place in the operational approach to quantum reference…
The apparent impossibility of extending non-relativistic quantum mechanics to a relativistic quantum theory is shown to be due to the insufficient structural richness of the field of complex numbers over which quantum mechanics is built. A…
Affine metrics and its associated algebroid bundle are developed. Theses structures are applied to the general relativity and provide an structure for unification of gravity and electromagnetism. The final result is a field equation on the…
