The recently constructed Fock representations of $N$-dimensional diffeomorphism and current algebras are reformulated in terms of one-dimensional currents, satisfying Virasoro and affine Kac-Moody algebras.
We describe an infinite-dimensional algebra of hidden symmetries for the self-dual gravity equations. Besides the known diffeomorphism-type symmetries (affine extension of w(infinity) algebra), this algebra contains new hidden symmetries,…
Many nonlinear dynamical systems exhibit symmetry, affording substantial benefits for control design, observer architecture, and data-driven control. While the classical notion of group invariance enables a cascade decomposition of the…
We examine two-dimensional conformal field theories (CFTs) at central charge c=0. These arise typically in the description of critical systems with quenched disorder, but also in other contexts including dilute self-avoiding polymers and…
In this paper, we initiate the study of endomorphisms and modular theory of the graph C*-algebras $\O_{\theta}$of a 2-graph $\Fth$ on a single vertex. We prove that there is a semigroup isomorphism between unital endomorphisms of…
In earlier work, the authors introduced a conjecture which, for an orientation-preserving diffeomorphism $\varphi \colon S \to S$ of a surface, connects a certain quantum invariant of $\varphi$ with the hyperbolic volume of its mapping…
The content of this paper has no mathematical flaw except that the proof of the main theorem relies on the homotopy invariance of spectral invariants of topological Hamiltonian paths. Since the latter is still up in the air, the main result…
We study canonical conformal gravity in four dimensions and construct the gauge generators and the associated charges. Using slightly generalized boundary conditions compared to those in \cite{Grumiller:2013mxa} we find that the charges…
Integration of Kirillov form on a coadjoint orbit of Virasoro algebra yields the coupling of a background field to Polyakov's two dimensional quantum gravity. This background field is used to be called the diffeomorphism field. Einstein's…
We introduce full diffeomorphism-invariant Colombeau algebras with added $\varepsilone$-dependence in the basic space. This unites the full and special settings of the theory into one single framework. Using locality conditions we find the…
For a four dimensional, unitary, diffeomorphism- and scale invariant quantum field theory without higher derivatives and a well defined scale current we argue that scale invariance implies conformal invariance. The proof relies on the…
Supersymmetric field theories possess a rich structure in their supercurrent supermultiplets. Some symmetries are manifest in one supercurrent supermultiplet but not in the others; for instance, R-symmetry is manifest in the R-multiplet but…
Looking for ideas for a fundamental physics that could almost work by itself, not making but mild assumptions, we are inspired by the earlier work by Astri Kleppe and myself. We showed that assuming diffeomorphism symmetry in addition to…
We give introductions into the representation theory of the Virasoro algebra, Wightman axioms and vertex algebras in the first part. In the second part, we compare the above definitions. We give a proof of Luescher and Mack that a dilation…
In this note, we derive some consequences of the von Neumann algebra uniqueness theorems developed in a previous paper (see arXiv:1207.6741v1). In particular, 1) we solvein a paper of Futamura, Kataoka, and Kishimoto, by proving that if A…
We discuss the structure of 2D conformal field theories (CFT) at central charge c=0 describing critical disordered systems, polymers and percolation. We construct a novel extension of the c=0 Virasoro algebra, characterized by a number b…
We prove that every closed set which is not sigma-finite with respect to the Hausdorff measure H^{N-1} carries singularities of continuous vector fields in the Euclidean space R^N for the divergence operator. We also show that finite…
The embedding Chains(R) into Cochains(R) as the compactly supported cochains might lead one to expect Chains(R) to carry a nonunital commutative Frobenius algebra structure, up to a degree shift and some homotopic weakening of the axioms.…
For every diffeomorphism $\varphi:M\to N$ between 3--dimensional Riemannian manifolds $M$ and $N$ there are in general locally two 2--dimensional distributions $D_{\pm}$ such that $\varphi$ is conformal on both of them. We state necessary…
We prove that every weak-local derivation on a C$^*$-algebra is continuous, and the same conclusion remains valid for weak$^*$-local derivations on von Neumann algebras. We further show that weak-local derivations on C$^*$-algebras and…
