We present a comprehensive and self-contained discussion of the use of the transfer matrix to study propagation in one-dimensional lossless systems, including a variety of examples, such as superlattices, photonic crystals, and optical…
We have systematically computed the generators of the symmetries arising in Poincare gauge theory formulation of gravity, both in 2+1 and 3+1 dimensions. This was done using a completely Lagrangian approach. The results are expected to be…
This paper develops the theory of discrete Dirac reduction of discrete Lagrange-Dirac systems with an abelian symmetry group acting on the configuration space. We begin with the linear theory and, then, we extend it to the nonlinear setting…
We use group theoretic ideas and coset space methods to deal with problems in polarization optics of a global nature. These include the possibility of a globally smooth phase convention for electric fields for all points on the Poincar\'{e}…
We offer some elementary characterisations of group and round quadratic forms. These characterisations are applied to establish new (and recover existing) characterisations of Pfister forms. We establish "going-up" results for group and…
Poincar\'e's Polyhedron Theorem is a widely known valuable tool in constructing manifolds endowed with a prescribed geometric structure. It is one of the few criteria providing discreteness of groups of isometries. This work contains a…
We introduce the Picard group of corings. We extend the well-known exact sequence from algebras and coalgebras over fields to corings. We extend the Aut-Pic property to corings and we give some new examples of corings having this property.…
The $C^*$-algebraic $\kappa$-Poincar\'{e} Group is constructed. The construction uses groupoid algebras of differential groupoids associated to Lie group decomposition. It turns out the underlying $C^*$-algebra is the same as for…
Factor systems are a tool for working on the extension problem of algebraic structures such as groups, Lie algebras, and associative algebras. Their applications are numerous and well-known in these common settings. We construct…
The Bisognano-Wichmann property on the geometric behavior of the modular group of the von Neumann algebras of local observables associated to wedge regions in Quantum Field Theory is shown to provide an intrinsic sufficient criterion for…
R. P. Feynman was quite fond of inventing new physics. It is shown that some of his physical ideas can be supported by the mathematical instruments available from the Lorentz group. As a consequence, it is possible to construct a…
The dynamics of a particle moving in background electromagnetic and gravitational fields is revisited from a Lie group cohomological perspective. Physical constants characterising the particle appear as central extension parameters of a…
In the context of a nonlinear gauge theory of the Poincar\'e group, we show that covariant derivatives of Dirac fields include a coupling to the translational connections, manifesting itself in the matter action as a universal background…
In this paper we study the possibility of assigning a geometric structure to the Lie groups. It is shown the Poincar\'{e} and Weyl groups have geometrical structure of the Riemann-Cartan and Weyl space-time respectively. The geometric…
Basic aspects of the Hamiltonian structure of the parity-violating Poincar\'e gauge theory are studied. We found all possible primary constraints, identified the corresponding critical parameters, and constructed the generic form of the…
As is well known, crystals have discrete space translational symmetry. It was recently noticed that one-dimensional crystals possibly have discrete Poincar\'{e} symmetry, which contains discrete Lorentz and discrete time translational…
We generalize a family of Lagrangians with values in the Poincar\'e group ISO(d-1,1), which contain the description of spinning strings in flat (d-1)+1 dimensions, by including symmetric terms in the world-sheet coordinates. Then, by…
In "Part I: Vector Analysis of Spinors", the author studied the geometry of two component spinors as points on the Riemann sphere in the geometric algebra of three dimensional Euclidean space. Here, these ideas are generalized to apply to…
We construct the action of a relativistic spinning particle from a non-linear realization of a space-time odd vector extension of the Poincar\'e group. For particular values of the parameters appearing in the lagrangian the model has a…
We provide a general framework for the realization of powers or functions of suitable operators on Dirichlet spaces. The first contribution is to unify the available results dealing with specific geometries; a second one is to provide new…
