We obtain a decomposition formula of a representation of Sp(p,q) and SO^\ast(2n) unitarily induced from a derived functor module, which enables us to reduce the problem of irreducible decompositions to the study of derived functor modules.…
We construct Wigner's continuous spin representations of the Poincar\'e algebra for massless particles in higher dimensions. The states are labeled both by the length of a space-like translation vector and the Dynkin indices of the {\it…
It is well known that related with the irreducible representations of the Lie group $SO(2)$ we find a discrete basis as well a continuous one. In this paper we revisited this situation under the light of Rigged Hilbert spaces, which are the…
We study irreducible unitary \reps of $U_q(SO(2,1))$ and $U_q(SO(2,3))$ for $q$ a root of unity, which are finite dimensional. Among others, unitary \reps corresponding to all classical one-particle representations with integral weights are…
The purpose of this article is to analyze several Lie algebras associated to "orbit configuration spaces" obtained from a group G acting freely, and properly discontinuously on the upper 1/2-plane H^2. The Lie algebra obtained from the…
We use the expansion of superalgebras procedure (summarized in the text) to derive Chern-Simons (CS) actions for the (p,q)-Poincare supergravities in three-dimensional spacetime. After deriving the action for the (p,0)-Poincare supergravity…
We describe embeddings of $n$-dimensional Lorentzian manifolds, including Friedmann-Lema\^itre-Robertson-Walker spaces, in $\mathbb{R}^{n+2}$ such that the metrics of the submanifolds are inherited by a restriction from that of…
The construction of Lie bialgebra from double Lie algebra is presented. It is used to relate some types of cobracket on inhomogenous so(p,q) algebras with double Lie algebra structures on so(p+1,q) or so(p,q+1). Also it is shown that the…
In this paper, we study the geometric and dynamical properties of maximal representations of surface groups into Hermitian Lie groups of rank 2. Combining tools from Higgs bundle theory, the theory of Anosov representations, and…
Individual spinors in a SU(2) spin network are described by their relations to the background spin network. A 'covariant' formulation of these relations yields the de Sitter group SO(3,2) as the fundamental symmetry group. Locally this…
A ladder structure of operators is presented for the associated Legendre polynomials and the spherical harmonics showing that both belong to the same irreducible representation of so(3,2). As both are also bases of square-integrable…
We prove that the extended Poincare group in (1+1) dimensions is non-nilpotent solvable exponential, and therefore that it belongs to type I. We determine its first and second cohomology groups in order to work out a classification of the…
We study irreducible spherical unitary representations of the Drinfeld double of a $q$-deformation of a connected simply connected compact Lie group, which can be considered as a quantum analogue of the complexification of the Lie group. In…
The symmetries provided by representations of the centrally extended Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{psl}(2|2)$ are known to play an important role in the spin chain models originated in the planar anti-de Sitter/conformal field theory…
The main result of this article is an application of the theory of invariant convex cones of Lie algebras to the study of unitary representations of Lie supergroups. It also includes an exposition of recent results of the second author on…
Following a recent group theoretical quantization of the symplectic space S={(phi in R mod 2pi, p>0)} in terms of irreducible unitary representations of the group SO(1,2) the present paper proposes an application of those results to the old…
We give a complete analysis of the projective unitary irreducible representations of the Poincar\'e group in 1+2 dimensions applying Mackey theorem and using an explicit formula for the universal covering group of the Lorentz group in 1+2…
The rings of symmetric polynomials form an inverse system whose limit, the ring of symmetric functions, is the model for the bosonic Fock space representation of the affine Lie algebra. We categorify this construction by considering an…
We show that rigid supersymmetry theories in four dimensions can be extended to give supersymmetric trace (or generalized quantum) dynamics theories, in which the supersymmetry algebra is represented by the generalized Poisson bracket of…
We give a survey of several models of irreducible complementary series representations and their limits, special representations, for the groups SU(n,1) and SO(n,1), including new ones. These groups, whose geometrical meaning is well known,…
