Generalized quantum statistics such as para-statistics is usually characterized by certain triple relations. In the case of para-Fermi statistics these relations can be associated with the orthogonal Lie algebra B_n=so(2n+1); in the case of para-Bose statistics they are associated with the Lie superalgebra B(0|n)=osp(1|2n). In a previous paper, a mathematical definition of ``a generalized quantum statistics associated with a classical Lie algebra G'' was given, and a complete classification was obtained. Here, we consider the definition of ``a generalized quantum statistics associated with a basic classical Lie superalgebra G''. Just as in the Lie algebra case, this definition is closely related to a certain Z-grading of G. We give in this paper a complete classification of all generalized quantum statistics associated with the basic classical Lie superalgebras A(m|n), B(m|n), C(n) and D(m|n).
Continuing our attempt to explain the degeneracy of the genetic code using basic classical Lie superalgebras, we present the branching schemes for the typical codon representations (typical 64-dimensional irreducible representations) of basic classical Lie superalgebras and find three schemes that do reproduce the degeneracies of the standard code, based on the orthosymplectic algebra osp(5|2) and differing only in details of the symmetry breaking pattern during the last step.
We extend equal rank embedding of reductive Lie algebras to that of basic Lie superalgebras. The Kac character formulas for equal rank embedding are derived in terms of subalgebras and Kostant's cubic Dirac operator for equal rank embedding of Lie superalgebras is constructed from both even and odd generators and their related structure constants.
Generalized quantum statistics (GQS) associated to a Lie algebra or Lie superalgebra extends the notion of para-Bose or para-Fermi statistics. Such GQS have been classified for all classical simple Lie algebras and basic classical Lie superalgebras. In the current paper we finalize this classification for all exceptional Lie algebras and superalgebras. Since the definition of GQS is closely related to a certain Z-grading of the Lie (super)algebra G, our classification reproduces some known Z-gradings of exceptional Lie algebras. For exceptional Lie superalgebras such a classification of Z-grad…
We discuss a generalization of N=6 three-algebras to N=5 three-algebras in connection to anti-Lie triple systems and basic Lie superalgebras of type II. We then show that the structure constants defined in anti-Lie triple systems agree with those of N=5 superconformal theories in three dimensions.
We study Kostant cohomology and Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand resolutions for finite dimensional representations of basic classical Lie superalgebras and reductive Lie superalgebras based on them. For each choice of parabolic subalgebra and irreducible representation of such a Lie superalgebra, there is a natural definition of the derivative and coderivative, which define the (co)homology groups. We prove that a necessary condition to have a resolution of an irreducible module in terms of Verma modules is complete reducibility of the cohomology groups. Essentially, if it exists, every such a resol…
Para-Bose and para-Fermi statistics are known to be associated with representations of the Lie (super)algebras of class B. We develop a framework for the generalization of quantum statistics based on the Lie superalgebras A(m|n), B(m|n), C(n) and D(m|n).
Fock space representations of the Lie superalgebra $sl(n+1|m)$ and of its quantum analogue $U_q[sl(n+1|m)]$ are written down. The results are based on a description of these superalgebras via creation and annihilation operators. The properties of the underlying statistics are shortly discussed.
Weyl denominator identity for the affinization of a basic Lie superalgebra with a non-zero Killing form was formulated by Kac and Wakimoto and was proven by them in defect one case. In this paper we prove this identity.
In this paper we investigate some important basic properties of simple Hom-Lie superalgebras and show that a Hom-Lie superalgebra does not have any left or right nontrivial ideals. Moreover, we classify invariant bilinear forms on a given simple Hom-Lie superalgebra. Then we study the Killing forms on a Hom-Lie algebra which are examples of the invariant bilinear forms. Making use of the Killing forms, we find conditions for a Hom-Lie superalgebra to be classical. Furthermore, we check the conditions in which the Killing form of a Hom-Lie superalgebra is non-degenerate.
We consider a superextension of the extended Jordanian twist, describing nonstandard quantization of anti-de-Sitter ($AdS$) superalgebra $osp(1|4)$ in the form of Hopf superalgebra. The super-Jordanian twisting function and corresponding basic coproduct formulae for the generators of $osp(1|4)$ are given in explicit form. The nonlinear transformation of the classical superalgebra basis not modifying the defining algebraic relations but simplifying coproducts and antipodes is proposed. Our physical application is to interpret the new super-Jordanian deformation of $osp(1|4)$ superalgebra as def…
The twisting function describing a nonstandard (super-Jordanian) quantum deformation of $osp(1|2)$ is given in explicite closed form. The quantum coproducts and universal R-matrix are presented. The non-uniqueness of the twisting function as well as two real forms of the deformed $osp(1|2)$ superalgebras are considered. One real quantum $osp(1|2)$ superalgebra is interpreted as describing the $κ$-deformation of D=1, N=1 superconformal algebra, which can be applied as a symmetry algebra of N=1 superconformal mechanics.
A class of representations of the $\mathbb{Z}_2\times\mathbb{Z}_2$-graded special linear Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{sl}(m_1+1,m_2|n_1,n_2)$ and quantum statistics
Two type of superization of the Jordanian r-matrix for the Lie algebra sl(2) are considered. One type is associated with the Lie superalgebra sl(1|1) and another type is associated with the orthosymplectic Lie superalgebra osp(1|2). Extended Jordanian r-matrices of maximal order are obtained for the basic complex Lie superalgebras sl(m|n) and osp(M|2n), and a general procedure for construction of corresponding chains of extended Jordanian twists is given. We also find a relation between the extended Jordanian twist and automorphism which gives trivial coproduct for a subalgebra provided the su…
We propose a generalization of Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE) that has internal degrees of freedom described by an affine Lie superalgebra. We give a general formulation of SLE corresponding to representation theory of an affine Lie superalgebra whose underlying finite dimensional Lie superalgebra is basic classical type, and write down stochastic differential equations on internal degrees of freedom in case that the corresponding affine Lie superalgebra is $\widehat{\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)}$. We also demonstrate computation of local martingales associated with the solution from a representation …
Some introductory concepts and basic definitions of the Lie superalgebras and their quantum deformations are exposed. Especially the induced representation methods in both cases are described. Based on the Kac representation theory we have succeeded in constructing representations of several higher rank superalgebras. When representations of quantum superalgebras are concerned, we have developed a method which can be applied not only to the one-parametric quantum deformations but also to the multi-parametric ones. As an intermediate step the Gel'fand-Zetlin basis description is extended to the…
The Racah problem for the quantum superalgebra $\mathfrak{osp}_{q}(1|2)$ is considered. The intermediate Casimir operators are shown to realize a $q$-deformation of the Bannai-Ito algebra. The Racah coefficients of $\mathfrak{osp}_q(1|2)$ are calculated explicitly in terms of basic orthogonal polynomials that $q$-generalize the Bannai-Ito polynomials. The relation between these $q$-deformed Bannai-Ito polynomials and the $q$-Racah/Askey-Wilson polynomials is discussed.
Inequivalent N=2 supersymmetrizations of the l-conformal Galilei algebra in d-spatial dimensions are constructed from the chiral (2,2) and the real (1,2,1) basic supermultiplets of the N=2 supersymmetry. For non-negative integer and half-integer l both superalgebras admit a consistent truncation with a (different) finite number of generators. The real N=2 case coincides with the superalgebra introduced by Masterov, while the chiral N=2 case is a new superalgebra. We present D-module representations of both superalgebras. Then we investigate the new superalgebra derived from the chiral supermul…
A description of the quantum superalgebra U_q[sl(n+1|m)] via creation and annihilation generators (CAGs) is given. A statement that the Fock representations of the CAGs provide microscopic realizations of exclusion statistics is formulated.
A brief review of the extremal projectors for contragredient Lie (super)symmetries (finite-dimensional simple Lie algebras, basic classical Lie superalgebras, infinite-dimensional affine Kac-Moody algebras and superalgebras, as well as their quantum $q$-analogs) is given. Some bibliographic comments on the applications of extremal projectors are presented.
A description of the quantum superalgebra $U_q[sl(n+1|m)]$ and in particular of the special linear superalgebra $sl(n+1|m)$ via creation and annihilation generators (CAGs) is given. It provides an alternative to the canonical description of $U_q[sl(n+1|m)]$ in terms of Chevalley generators. A conjecture that the Fock representations of the CAGs provide microscopic realizations of exclusion statistics is formulated.
We consider the compatibility conditions for a N-particle D-dimensional Wigner quantum oscillator. These conditions can be rewritten as certain triple relations involving anticommutators, so it is natural to look for solutions in terms of Lie superalgebras. In the recent classification of ``generalized quantum statistics'' for the basic classical Lie superalgebras [math-ph/0504013], each such statistics is characterized by a set of creation and annihilation operators plus a set of triple relations. In the present letter, we investigate which cases of this classification also lead to solutions …
It has been proposed that the degeneracy of the genetic code,i.e., the phenomenon that different codons (base triplets) of DNA are transcribed into the same amino acid, may be interpreted as the result of a symmetry breaking process. In the initial work of Hornos & Hornos this picture was developed in the framework of simple Lie algebras. Here, we explore the possibility of explaining the degeneracy of the genetic code using basic classical Lie superalgebras, whose representation theory is sufficiently well understood, at least as far as typical representations are concerned. In the present pa…
Representations of the quantum superalgebra U_q[osp(1/2)] and their relations to the basic hypergeometric functions are investigated. We first establish Clebsch-Gordan decomposition for the superalgebra U_q[osp(1/2)] in which the representations having no classical counterparts are incorporated. Formulae for these Clebsch-Gordan coefficients are derived, and it is observed that they may be expressed in terms of the $Q$-Hahn polynomials. We next investigate representations of the quantum supergroup OSp_q(1/2) which are not well-defined in the classical limit. Employing the universal T-matrix, t…
In 1998, A.Alekseev and E.Meinrenken construct an explicit $G$-differential space homomorphism $\mathcal{Q}$, called the quantization map, between the Weil algebra $\Weil{\g}= \sym{\co{\g}} \otimes \ext{\co{\g}}$ and $\NWeil{\g}=\U{\g} \otimes \Cl{\g}$ (which they called the noncommutative Weil algebra) for any quadratic Lie algebra $\g$. They showed that $\mathcal{Q}$ induces an algebra isomorphism between the basic cohomology rings $H^{\ast}_{bas}(\Weil{g})$ and $H^{\ast}_{bas}(\NWeil{\g})$. In this paper, I interpret the quantization map $\mathcal{Q}$ as the super Duflo map between the symm…
These notes are an elementary introduction to supersymmetric quantum mechanics for students of mathematics. We start from the very basic concepts of quantum mechanics and proceed to construct a realization of Heisenberg's superalgebra as a subalgebra of the graded algebra of endomorphisms of a certain supervector space (obtaining thus an example of Ado's theorem for Lie superalgebras), using Witten's model of supersymmetric quantum mechanics. The notes were written for a graduate seminar at the Universidad Autónoma de San Luis Potosí.
By the supersymmetrization of a simple algebraic technique proposed in \cite{LuTo2017} we obtain the complete classification of all basic (nonisomorphic) quantum deformations for the orthosymplectic Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2;\mathbb{C})$ and its pseudoreal and real forms in terms of the classical $r$-matrices. In particular, we prove that pseudoreal compact form has only one quantum deformation (standart $q$-analog), and the $D=3$, $N=1$ Lorentz supersymmetry, which is the non-compact real form of $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2;\mathbb{C})$, has four different Hopf-algebraic quantum deformatio…
In 1994, Kac and Wakimoto suggested a generalization of Bernstein and Leites character formula for basic Lie superalgebras, and the natural question was raised: to which simple highest weight modules does it apply? In this paper, we prove a similar formula for a large class of finite-dimensional simple modules over the Lie superalgebra gl(m|n), which we call piecewise disconnected modules, or PDC. The class of PDC modules naturally includes totally connected modules and totally disconnected modules, the two families for which similiar character formulas were proven by Su and Zhang as special c…
Generalized quantum statistics, such as paraboson and parafermion statistics, are characterized by triple relations which are related to Lie (super)algebras of type B. The correspondence of the Fock spaces of parabosons, parafermions as well as the Fock space of a system of parafermions and parabosons to irreducible representations of (super)algebras of type B will be pointed out. Example of generalized quantum statistics connected to the basic classical Lie superalgebra B(1|1)=osp(3|2) with interesting physical properties, such as noncommutative coordinates, will be given. Therefore the artic…
Deformation of the Heisenberg-Weyl algebra and the Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{osp}\left( {1|2} \right)$: exact solution for the quantum harmonic oscillator with a position-dependent mass
It is well known that the validity of the so called Lenard-Magri scheme of integrability of a bi-Hamiltonian PDE can be established if one has some precise information on the corresponding 1st variational Poisson cohomology for one of the two Hamiltonian operators. In the first part of the paper we explain how to introduce various cohomology complexes, including Lie superalgebra and Poisson cohomology complexes, and basic and reduced Lie conformal algebra and Poisson vertex algebra cohomology complexes, by making use of the corresponding universal Lie superalebra or Lie conformal superalgebra.…
Combining intuitive probabilistic assumptions with the basic laws of classical thermodynamics, using the latter to express probabilistic parameters in terms of the thermodynamic quantities, we get a simple unified derivation of the fundamental ensembles of statistical physics avoiding any limiting procedures, quantum hypothesis and even statistical entropy maximization. This point of view leads also to some related classes of correlated particle statistics.
