We analyse nonperturbatively signal transmission patterns in Green's functions of interacting quantum fields. Quantum field theory is re-formulated in terms of the nonlinear quantum-statistical response of the field. This formulation…
We derive orthogonality relations for discrete q-ultraspherical polynomials and their duals by means of operators of representations of the quantum algebra su_q(1,1). Spectra and eigenfunctions of these operators are found explicitly. These…
The contraction and Jordan-Schwinger construction connect the $su(2)$ and the heisenberg algebra, going in oposite directions. This persists in the q-deformed cases, but in a slightly different way. This work investigates this further,…
We prove polynomial identities for the N=1 superconformal model SM(2,4\nu) which generalize and extend the known Fermi/Bose character identities. Our proof uses the q-trinomial coefficients of Andrews and Baxter on the bosonic side and a…
We consider bosonization of supersymmetry in the context of Wess-Zumino quantum mechanics. Our motivation for this investigation is the flexibility the bosonic fock space affords as any classical probability distribution can be realized on…
We introduce a concise quantum operator formula for bosonization in which the Lie group structure appears in a natural way. The connection between fermions and bosons is found to be exactly the connection between Lie group elements and the…
We consider a (2+1) dimensional Wilson-Fisher boson coupled to a (3+1) dimensional U(1) gauge field. This theory possesses a strong-weak duality in terms of the coupling constant e, and is self-dual at a particular value of $e$. We derive…
Fusion rules among irreducible modules of the free bosonic orbifold vertex operator algebra are completely determined.
We introduce higher level $q$-oscillator representations for the quantum affine (super)algebras of type $C_n^{(1)},C^{(2)}(n+1)$ and $B^{(1)}(0,n)$. These representations are constructed by applying the fusion procedure to the level one…
A fundamental pillar of quantum mechanics concerns indistinguishable quantum particles. In three dimensions they may be classified into fermions or bosons, having, respectively, antisymmetric or symmetric wave functions under particle…
Lie groups and quantum algebras are connected through their common universal enveloping algebra. The adjoint action of Lie group on its algebra is naturally extended to related q-algebra and q-coalgebra. In such a way, quantum structure can…
We construct theories of free fermions in $(2n-1)$-dimensions with $SU(1,n)$ spacetime symmetry from the null reduction of fermions on a $2n$-dimensional $\Omega$-deformed Minkowski background for $n=2$ and $n=3$. These play a role in the…
We study a class of representations of the Cuntz algebras O_N, N=2,3,..., acting on L^2(T) where T=R/2\pi Z. The representations arise in wavelet theory, but are of independent interest. We find and describe the decomposition into…
A hypothetical exclusion principle for quantum particles is introduced that generalizes the exclusion and inclusion principles for fermions and bosons, respectively: the correlated exclusion principle. The sum-free condition for Schur…
We derive a free boson representation of the Yangian double $DY_\hbar(sl_N)$ with arbitrary level k using the observation that there is a correspondence between the q-affine algebra and Yangian double associated with the same Cartan matrix.…
We give a detailed description of the resolution of the identity of a second order $q$-difference operator considered as an unbounded self-adjoint operator on two different Hilbert spaces. The $q$-difference operator and the two choices of…
An algebra homomorphism $\psi$ from the nonstandard q-deformed (cyclically symmetric) algebra $U_q(so_3)$ to the extension ${\hat U}_q(sl_2)$ of the Hopf algebra $U_q(sl_2)$ is constructed. Not all irreducible representations of $U_q(sl_2)$…
The representation theory of the quantum group su$_q(2)$ is used to introduce $q$-analogues of the Wigner rotation matrices, spherical functions, and Legendre polynomials. The method amounts to an extension of variable separation from…
We prove a bijection between finite-dimensional irreducible modules for an arbitrary quantum affine algebra $U_q(g)$ and finite-dimensional irreducible modules for its Borel subalgebra $U_q(g)^{\geq 0}$.
Following recent advances in large N matrix mechanics, I discuss here the free (Cuntz) algebraic formulation of the large N limit of two-dimensional conformal field theories of chiral adjoint fermions and bosons. One of the central results…
