An Explicit and Simple Relationship Between Two Model Spaces

A new set of polynomial states (to be called character states) are derived for $Sp(4)$ reduced to its $SU(2) \times U(1)$ subgroup, and the relevant generator matrix elements are evaluated for generic representations $(a,b)$ of $Sp(4)$. (The degenerate representations $(a,0)$ and $(0,b)$ were treated in our previous work and are also given in this paper). The group--subgroup in question is that of the seniority model of nuclear physics.

Coherent state operators (CSO) are defined as operator valued functions on G=SL(n,C), homogeneous with respect to right multiplication by lower triangular matrices. They act on a model space containing all holomorphic finite dimensional representations of G with multiplicity 1. CSO provide an analytic tool for studying G invariant 2- and 3-point functions, which are written down in the case of $SU_3$. The quantum group deformation of the construction gives rise to a non-commu...

The character problems of SU(2) and SU(1,1) are reexamined from the standpoint of a physicist by employing the Hilbert space method which is shown to yield a completely unified treatment for SU(2) and the discrete series of representations of SU(1,1). For both the groups the problem is reduced to the evaluation of an integral which is invariant under rotation for SU(2) and Lorentz transformation for SU(1,1). The integrals are accordingly evaluated by applying a rotation to a ...

Eigenvalue problems on irreducible $\mathfrak{su}(2)$ modules and their adjoints are considered in the Bargmann, Barut-Girardello and finite difference models. The biorthogonality relations that arise between the corresponding generating functions of the Krawtchouk polynomials are sorted out. A link with Pad\'e approximation is made.

The SU(3) modular invariant partition functions were first completely classified in Ref.\ \SU. The purpose of these notes is four-fold: \item{(i)} Here we accomplish the SU(3) classification using only the most basic facts: modular invariance; $M_{\la\mu}\in{\bf Z}_{\ge}$; and $M_{00}=1$. In \SU{} we made use of less elementary results from Moore-Seiberg, in addition to these 3 basic facts. \item{(ii)} Ref.\ \SU{} was completed well over a year ago. Since then I have found a ...

We prove that each action of a compact matrix quantum group on a compact quantum space can be decomposed into irreducible representations of the group. We give the formula for the corresponding multiplicities in the case of the quotient quantum spaces. We describe the subgroups and the quotient spaces of quantum SU(2) and SO(3) groups.

Some results are presented indicating the distinct advantages that accrue from choosing a real representation for the generators of SU(N) rather than the usual and more popular Gell-Mann type matrices. A few examples in the context of quantum chromodynamics are used to serve as illustrations.

With the aim of constructing coherent states for many-body systems consisting of six kinds of boson operators, a possible form of the orthogonal set is presented in terms of monomial with respect to state generating operators. In connection with the su(3)-, the su(2)-, the su(2,1)- and the su(1,1)-algebras, four types of the orthogonal set are discussed.

It is shown here and in the preceeding paper (quant-ph/0201129) that vector coherent state theory, the theory of induced representations, and geometric quantization provide alternative but equivalent quantizations of an algebraic model. The relationships are useful because some constructions are simpler and more natural from one perspective than another. More importantly, each approach suggests ways of generalizing its counterparts. In this paper, we focus on the construction...

After 100 years of effort, the classification of all the finite subgroups of SU(3) is yet incomplete. The most recently updated list can be found in P.O. Ludl, J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 44 255204 (2011), where the structure of the series (C) and (D) of SU(3)-subgroups is studied. We provide a minimal set of generators for one of these groups which has order 162. These generators appear up to phase as the image of an irreducible unitary braid group representation issued from th...
