The representation theory of the group U(1,q) is discussed in detail because of its possible application in a quaternion version of the Salam-Weinberg theory. As a consequence, from purely group theoretical arguments we demonstrate that the…

Hilbert--Lie groups are Lie groups whose Lie algebra is a real Hilbert space whose scalar product is invariant under the adjoint action. These infinite-dimensional Lie groups are the closest relatives to compact Lie groups. Here we study…

We consider the phase-space of Yang-Mills on a cylindrical space-time ($S^1 \times {\bf R}$) and the associated algebra of gauge-invariant functions, the $T$-variables. We solve the Mandelstam identities both classically and…

Let $G$ be a connected, simply connected nilpotent group and $\pi$ be a square-integrable irreducible unitary representation modulo its center $Z(G)$ on $L^2(\mathbf{R}^d)$. We prove that under reasonably weak conditions on $G$ and $\pi$…

$\text{SO}(1, d+1)$ is the isometry group of $(d+1)$-dimensional de Sitter spacetime $\text{dS}_{d+1}$ and the conformal group of $\mathbb{R}^{d}$. This note gives a pedagogical introduction to the representation theory of $\text{SO}(1,…

We study the character variety of representations of the fundamental group of a closed surface of genus $g\geq2$ into the Lie group SO(n,n+1) using Higgs bundles. For each integer $0<d\leq n(2g-2),$ we show there is a smooth connected…

The article establishes a long list of rigidity properties of lattices in G = SO(n,1) with n>=3 and G = SU(n,1) with n>=2 that are analogous to superrigidity of lattices in higher-rank Lie groups. The arguments are set in the context of…

We construct families of irreducible representations for a class of quantum groups $U_{q}(f_{m}(K,H)$. First, we realize these quantum groups as Hyperbolic algebras. Such a realization yields natural families of irreducible weight…

As is well known, the type 1 Lie superalgebra sl(r+1|s+1) admits a one parameter family of finite dimensional irreducible representations. We have carried out an analytic Bethe ansatz related to this family of representations. We present…

A state sum model based on the group SU(1,1) is defined. Investigations of its geometry and asymptotics suggest it is a good candidate for modelling (2+1) Lorentzian quantum gravity.

We combine the creation and annihilation operators of a scalar field in Minkowski spacetime to obtain the generators of the SU(1,1). We show that the transformation between Minkowski and Rindler vacua can be represented by (pseudo)rotation…

In this paper we consider squares of pseudo-bosonic ladder operators and we use them to produce explicit examples of eigenstates of certain operators satisfying a deformed $\mathfrak{su}(1,1)$ Lie algebra. We show how these eigenstates may,…

We study actions of compact quantum groups on type I factors, which may be interpreted as projective representations of compact quantum groups. We generalize to this setting some of Woronowicz' results concerning Peter-Weyl theory for…

Positive discrete series representations of the Lie algebra $su(1,1)$ and the quantum algebra $U_q(su(1,1))$ are considered. The diagonalization of a self-adjoint operator (the Hamiltonian) in these representations and in tensor products of…

We study the structure of minimal parabolic subgroups of the classical infinite dimensional real simple Lie groups, corresponding to the classical simple direct limit Lie algebras. This depends on the recently developed structure of…

We show that $\frak{su}(2)$ Lie algebras of coordinate operators related to quantum spaces with $\frak{su}(2)$ noncommutativity can be conveniently represented by $SO(3)$-covariant poly-differential involutive representations. We show that…

We describe a family of coherent states and an associated resolution of the identity for a quantum particle whose classical configuration space is the d-dimensional sphere S^d. The coherent states are labeled by points in the associated…

Given a minuscule representation of a simple Lie algebra, we find an algebraic model for the action of a regular element and show that these models can be glued together over the adjoint quotient, viewed as the set of all regular conjugacy…

We define a new multispecies model of Calogero type in D dimensions with harmonic, two-body and three-body interactions. Using the underlying conformal SU(1,1) algebra, we indicate how to find the complete set of the states in Bargmann-Fock…
