Recently, a new generalized family of infinite-dimensional $ \widetilde{W} $ algebras, each associated with a particular element of a commutative subalgebra of the $ W_{1+\infty} $ algebra, was described. This paper provides a comprehensive…
We complete the classical Schoenberg representation theorem for radial positive definite functions. We apply this result to study spectral properties of self-adjoint realizations of two- and three-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators with…
We give a non-commutative Positivstellensatz for CP^n: The (commutative) *-algebra of polynomials on the real algebraic set CP^n with the pointwise product can be realized by phase space reduction as the U(1)-invariant polynomials on…
Factoring out the spin $1$ subalgebra of a $ W $ algebra leads to a new $ W $ structure which can be seen either as a rational finitely generated $ W $ algebra or as a polynomial non-linear $ W_\infty$ realization.
We consider the convex set of ( unital ) positive ( completely ) maps from a $C^*$ algebra $\cla$ to a von-Neumann sub-algebra $\clm$ of $\clb(\clh)$, the algebra of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space $\clh$ and study its extreme…
The Weyl group of the Cuntz algebra O_n, with n finite, is investigated. This is (isomorphic to) the group of polynomial automorphisms of O_n, namely those induced by unitaries that can be written as finite sums of words in the canonical…
Let $h(B_d)$ denote the space of real-valued harmonic functions on the unit ball $B_d$ of $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\ge 2$. Given a radial weight $w$ on $B_d$, consider the following problem: construct a finite family $\{f_1, f_2, \dots, f_J\}$ in…
In this article we show that the main C*-algebras describing the canonical commutation relations of quantum physics, i.e., the Weyl and resolvent algebras, are in the class of F{\o}lner C*-algebras, a class of C*-algebras admitting a kind…
A number of results on radial positive definite functions on ${\mathbb R^n}$ related to Schoenberg's integral representation theorem are obtained. They are applied to the study of spectral properties of self-adjoint realizations of two- and…
The Witt algebra W_n is the Lie algebra of all derivations of the n-variable polynomial ring V_n=C[x_1, ..., x_n] (or of algebraic vector fields on A^n). A representation of W_n is polynomial if it arises as a subquotient of a sum of tensor…
In this paper we study quadratic forms which are universal when restricted to almost prime inputs, establishing finiteness theorems akin to the Conway--Schneeberger 15 theorem.
We investigate negative spectra of 1--D Schr\"odinger operators with $\delta$- and $\delta'$-interactions on a discrete set in the framework of a new approach. Namely, using technique of boundary triplets and the corresponding Weyl…
The first purpose of this article is to provide conditions for a bounded operator in $L^2(\R^n)$ to be the Weyl (resp. anti-Wick) quantization of a bounded continuous symbol on $\R^{2n}$. Then, explicit formulas for the Weyl (resp.…
I summarize some recent results obtained in collaboration with P.~Bouwknegt and K.~Pilch on the spectrum of physical states in $\cW_3$ gravity coupled to $c=2$ matter. In particular, it is shown that the algebra of operators corresponding…
For permutations $v,w \in \mathfrak S_n$, Macdonald defines the skew divided difference operators $\partial_{w/v}$ as the unique linear operators satisfying $\partial_w(PQ) = \sum_v v(\partial_{w/v}P) \cdot \partial_vQ$ for all polynomials…
We show that to determine all solvable elements in the Weyl algebra is closely related to the Dixmier's open question. Sufficient conditions for an elements being unsolvable are given, and properties of solvable elements are obtained.
We use variations on Lax type operators to find explicit formulas for certain elements of finite $W$-algebras. These give a complete set of generators for all finite $W$-algebras of types B,C,D for which the Dynkin grading is even.
In this paper, we study weight representations over the Schr{\"o}dinger Lie algebra $\mathfrak{s}_n$ for any positive integer $n$. It turns out that the algebra $\mathfrak{s}_n$ can be realized by polynomial differential operators. Using…
A finite W-algebra is an associative algebra constructed from a semisimple Lie algebra and its nilpotent element. In this survey we review recent developments in the representation theory of W-algebras. We emphasize various interactions…
Let $p$ be a prime, and $N$ be a positive integer not divisible by $p$. Denote by ${\rm ord}_N(p)$ the multiplicative order of $p$ modulo $N$. Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ represent the finite field of order $q=p^{{\rm ord}_N(p)}$. For $a,…
