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…
There has been proposed a new method of the constructing of the basic functions for spaces of tensor representations of the Lie groups with the help of the generalized Casimir operator. In the definition of the operator there were used the…
We study the quantum mechanical harmonic oscillator in two and three dimensions, with particular attention to the solutions as represents of their respective symmetry groups: O(2), O(3), and O(2,1). Solving the Schrodinger equation by…
The representation theory of deformed oscillator algebras, defined in terms of an arbitrary function of the number operator~$N$, is developed in terms of the eigenvalues of a Casimir operator~$C$. It is shown that according to the nature of…
An exact approach for the factorization of the relativistic linear singular oscillator is proposed. This model is expressed by the finite-difference Schr\"odinger-like equation. We have found finite-difference raising and lowering…
Symmetry groups are projectively represented in quantum mechanics, and crystalline symmetries are fundamental in condensed matter physics. Here, we systematically present a unified theory of quantum mechanical space groups from two…
A representation of the quadratic Dirac equation and the Maxwell equations in terms of the three-dimensional universal complex Clifford algebra is given. The investigation considers a subset of the full algebra, which is isomorphic to the…
It is known that local operators in quantum field theory transform in representations of ordinary global symmetry groups. The purpose of this paper is to generalise this statement to extended operators such as line and surface defects. We…
Symmetries in quantum mechanics are realized by the projective representations of the Lie group as physical states are defined only up to a phase. A cornerstone theorem shows that these representations are equivalent to the unitary…
For any triple $(M^n, g, \nabla)$ consisting of a Riemannian manifold and a metric connection with skew-symmetric torsion we introduce an elliptic, second order operator $\Omega$ acting on spinor fields. In case of a reductive space and its…
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…
We describe a novel class of quantum mechanical particle oscillations in both relativistic and non-relativistic systems based on $PT$ symmetry and $T^2=-1$ (relevant for fermions), where $P$ is parity and $T$ is time reversal. The…
Unitarity is a cornerstone of quantum theory, ensuring the conservation of probability and information. Although non-Hermitian Hamiltonians are typically associated with open or dissipative systems, pseudo-Hermitian quantum mechanics shows…
The Casimir effect is a physical manifestation of zero point energy of quantum vacuum. In a relativistic quantum field theory, Poincar\'e symmetry of the theory seems, at first sight, to imply that non-zero vacuum energy is inconsistent…
In this note, we extend the striking connections between quantum integrable systems and conformal blocks recently found in http://arxiv.org/abs/1602.01858 in several directions. First, we explicitly demonstrate that the action of quartic…
We give canonical forms of selfadjoint and isometric operators on a complex vector space $U$ with scalar product given by a positive semidefinite Hermitian form, and of Hermitian forms on $U$. For an arbitrary system of semiunitary spaces…
In this paper we construct manifestly covariant relativistic coherent states on the entire complex plane which reproduce others previously introduced on a given $SL(2,R)$ representation, once a change of variables $z\in C\rightarrow z_D \in…
We analyze the structure of the group of (local) non-linear canonical transformations that exist in a system with n fermionic modes. To perform our study we develop an alternative framework to represent the generators of these canonical…
The Casimir operators of a Lie algebra are in one-to-one correspondence with the symmetric invariant tensors of the algebra. There is an infinite family of Casimir operators whose members are expressible in terms of a number of primitive…
