Book Invariant Differential Operators for Quantum Symmetric Spaces

Download or read book Invariant Differential Operators for Quantum Symmetric Spaces written by Gail Letzter and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2008 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper studies quantum invariant differential operators for quantum symmetric spaces in the maximally split case. The main results are quantum versions of theorems of Harish-Chandra and Helgason: There is a Harish-Chandra map which induces an isomorphism between the ring of quantum invariant differential operators and the ring of invariants of a certain Laurent polynomial ring under an action of the restricted Weyl group. Moreover, the image of the center under this map is the entire invariant ring if and only if the underlying irreducible symmetric pair is not of four exceptional types. In the process, the author finds a particularly nice basis for the quantum invariant differential operators that provides a new interpretation of difference operators associated to Macdonald polynomials.

Book Unitary Invariants in Multivariable Operator Theory

Download or read book Unitary Invariants in Multivariable Operator Theory written by Gelu Popescu and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2009-06-05 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper concerns unitary invariants for $n$-tuples $T:=(T_1,\ldots, T_n)$ of (not necessarily commuting) bounded linear operators on Hilbert spaces. The author introduces a notion of joint numerical radius and works out its basic properties. Multivariable versions of Berger's dilation theorem, Berger-Kato-Stampfli mapping theorem, and Schwarz's lemma from complex analysis are obtained. The author studies the joint (spatial) numerical range of $T$ in connection with several unitary invariants for $n$-tuples of operators such as: right joint spectrum, joint numerical radius, euclidean operator radius, and joint spectral radius. He also proves an analogue of Toeplitz-Hausdorff theorem on the convexity of the spatial numerical range of an operator on a Hilbert space, for the joint numerical range of operators in the noncommutative analytic Toeplitz algebra $F_n^\infty$.

Book Random Sets and Invariants for  Type II  Continuous Tensor Product Systems of Hilbert Spaces

Download or read book Random Sets and Invariants for Type II Continuous Tensor Product Systems of Hilbert Spaces written by Volkmar Liebscher and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2009-04-10 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a series of papers Tsirelson constructed from measure types of random sets or (generalised) random processes a new range of examples for continuous tensor product systems of Hilbert spaces introduced by Arveson for classifying $E_0$-semigroups upto cocycle conjugacy. This paper starts from establishing the converse. So the author connects each continuous tensor product system of Hilbert spaces with measure types of distributions of random (closed) sets in $[0,1]$ or $\mathbb R_+$. These measure types are stationary and factorise over disjoint intervals. In a special case of this construction, the corresponding measure type is an invariant of the product system. This shows, completing in a more systematic way the Tsirelson examples, that the classification scheme for product systems into types $\mathrm{I}_n$, $\mathrm{II}_n$ and $\mathrm{III}$ is not complete. Moreover, based on a detailed study of this kind of measure types, the author constructs for each stationary factorising measure type a continuous tensor product system of Hilbert spaces such that this measure type arises as the before mentioned invariant.

Book Cohomological Invariants  Exceptional Groups and Spin Groups

Download or read book Cohomological Invariants Exceptional Groups and Spin Groups written by Skip Garibaldi and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2009-06-05 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume concerns invariants of $G$-torsors with values in mod $p$ Galois cohomology--in the sense of Serre's lectures in the book Cohomological invariants in Galois cohomology--for various simple algebraic groups $G$ and primes $p$. The author determines the invariants for the exceptional groups $F_4$ mod 3, simply connected $E_6$ mod 3, $E_7$ mod 3, and $E_8$ mod 5. He also determines the invariants of $\mathrm{Spin}_n$ mod 2 for $n \leq 12$ and constructs some invariants of $\mathrm{Spin}_{14}$. Along the way, the author proves that certain maps in nonabelian cohomology are surjective. These surjectivities give as corollaries Pfister's results on 10- and 12-dimensional quadratic forms and Rost's theorem on 14-dimensional quadratic forms. This material on quadratic forms and invariants of $\mathrm{Spin}_n$ is based on unpublished work of Markus Rost. An appendix by Detlev Hoffmann proves a generalization of the Common Slot Theorem for 2-Pfister quadratic forms.

Book Twisted Pseudodifferential Calculus and Application to the Quantum Evolution of Molecules

Download or read book Twisted Pseudodifferential Calculus and Application to the Quantum Evolution of Molecules written by AndrŽ Martinez and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2009-06-05 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors construct an abstract pseudodifferential calculus with operator-valued symbol, suitable for the treatment of Coulomb-type interactions, and they apply it to the study of the quantum evolution of molecules in the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, in the case of the electronic Hamiltonian admitting a local gap in its spectrum. In particular, they show that the molecular evolution can be reduced to the one of a system of smooth semiclassical operators, the symbol of which can be computed explicitely. In addition, they study the propagation of certain wave packets up to long time values of Ehrenfest order.

Book Heisenberg Calculus and Spectral Theory of Hypoelliptic Operators on Heisenberg Manifolds

Download or read book Heisenberg Calculus and Spectral Theory of Hypoelliptic Operators on Heisenberg Manifolds written by Raphael Ponge and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2008 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This memoir deals with the hypoelliptic calculus on Heisenberg manifolds, including CR and contact manifolds. In this context the main differential operators at stake include the Hormander's sum of squares, the Kohn Laplacian, the horizontal sublaplacian, the CR conformal operators of Gover-Graham and the contact Laplacian. These operators cannot be elliptic and the relevant pseudodifferential calculus to study them is provided by the Heisenberg calculus of Beals-Greiner andTaylor.

Book The Topological Dynamics of Ellis Actions

Download or read book The Topological Dynamics of Ellis Actions written by Ethan Akin and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2008 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Ellis semigroup is a compact space with a semigroup multiplication which is continuous in only one variable. An Ellis action is an action of an Ellis semigroup on a compact space such that for each point in the space the evaluation map from the semigroup to the space is continuous. At first the weak linkage between the topology and the algebra discourages expectations that such structures will have much utility. However, Ellis has demonstrated that these actions arise naturallyfrom classical topological actions of locally compact groups on compact spaces and provide a useful tool for the study of such actions. In fact, via the apparatus of the enveloping semigroup the classical theory of topological dynamics is subsumed by the theory of Ellis actions. The authors'exposition describes and extends Ellis' theory and demonstrates its usefulness by unifying many recently introduced concepts related to proximality and distality. Moreover, this approach leads to several results which are new even in the classical setup.

Book Rank One Higgs Bundles and Representations of Fundamental Groups of Riemann Surfaces

Download or read book Rank One Higgs Bundles and Representations of Fundamental Groups of Riemann Surfaces written by William Mark Goldman and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2008 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This expository article details the theory of rank one Higgs bundles over a closed Riemann surface $X$ and their relation to representations of the fundamental group of $X$. The authors construct an equivalence between the deformation theories of flat connections and Higgs pairs. This provides an identification of moduli spaces arising in different contexts. The moduli spaces are real Lie groups. From each context arises a complex structure, and the different complex structures define a hyperkähler structure. The twistor space, real forms, and various group actions are computed explicitly in terms of the Jacobian of $X$. The authors describe the moduli spaces and their geometry in terms of the Riemann period matrix of $X$.

Book Complicial Sets Characterising the Simplicial Nerves of Strict   omega   Categories

Download or read book Complicial Sets Characterising the Simplicial Nerves of Strict omega Categories written by Dominic Verity and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2008 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary purpose of this work is to characterise strict $\omega$-categories as simplicial sets with structure. The author proves the Street-Roberts conjecture in the form formulated by Ross Street in his work on Orientals, which states that they are exactly the ``complicial sets'' defined and named by John Roberts in his handwritten notes of that title (circa 1978). On the way the author substantially develops Roberts' theory of complicial sets itself and makes contributions to Street's theory of parity complexes. In particular, he studies a new monoidal closed structure on the category of complicial sets which he shows to be the appropriate generalisation of the (lax) Gray tensor product of 2-categories to this context. Under Street's $\omega$-categorical nerve construction, which the author shows to be an equivalence, this tensor product coincides with those of Steiner, Crans and others.

Book A Proof of Alon s Second Eigenvalue Conjecture and Related Problems

Download or read book A Proof of Alon s Second Eigenvalue Conjecture and Related Problems written by Joel Friedman and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2008 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A $d$-regular graph has largest or first (adjacency matrix) eigenvalue $\lambda_1=d$. Consider for an even $d\ge 4$, a random $d$-regular graph model formed from $d/2$ uniform, independent permutations on $\{1,\ldots,n\}$. The author shows that for any $\epsilon>0$ all eigenvalues aside from $\lambda_1=d$ are bounded by $2\sqrt{d-1}\;+\epsilon$ with probability $1-O(n^{-\tau})$, where $\tau=\lceil \bigl(\sqrt{d-1}\;+1\bigr)/2 \rceil-1$. He also shows that this probability is at most $1-c/n^{\tau'}$, for a constant $c$ and a $\tau'$ that is either $\tau$ or $\tau+1$ (``more often'' $\tau$ than $\tau+1$). He proves related theorems for other models of random graphs, including models with $d$ odd.

Book Toroidal Dehn Fillings on Hyperbolic 3 Manifolds

Download or read book Toroidal Dehn Fillings on Hyperbolic 3 Manifolds written by Cameron Gordon and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2008 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors determine all hyperbolic $3$-manifolds $M$ admitting two toroidal Dehn fillings at distance $4$ or $5$. They show that if $M$ is a hyperbolic $3$-manifold with a torus boundary component $T 0$, and $r,s$ are two slopes on $T 0$ with $\Delta(r,s) = 4$ or $5$ such that $M(r)$ and $M(s)$ both contain an essential torus, then $M$ is either one of $14$ specific manifolds $M i$, or obtained from $M 1, M 2, M 3$ or $M {14}$ by attaching a solid torus to $\partial M i - T 0$.All the manifolds $M i$ are hyperbolic, and the authors show that only the first three can be embedded into $S3$. As a consequence, this leads to a complete classification of all hyperbolic knots in $S3$ admitting two toroidal surgeries with distance at least $4$.
