Abstract

A model of particle interacting with quantum field is considered. The model includes as particular cases the polaron model and non-relativistic quantum electrodynamics. We show that the field operators obey q-commutation relations with q depending on time. After the stochastic (or van Hove) limit, due to the nonlinearity, the atomic and field degrees of freedom become entangled in the sense that the field and the atomic variables no longer commute but give rise to a new algebra with new commutation relations replacing the Boson ones. This new algebra allows to give a simple proof of the fact that the non crossing half-planar diagrams give the dominating contribution in a weak coupling regime and to calculate explicitly the correlations associated to the new algebra. The above results depend crucially on the fact that we do not introduce any dipole or multipole approximation.

On singular vectors and associated Weyl elements for simply-laced universal affine vertex operator algebras

Given a finite-dimensional complex simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ and a complex number $κ$, let $V^κ(\mathfrak{g})$ be the associated universal affine vertex algebra. Gorelik and Kac [GK07] gave a sufficient and necessary condition for $V^κ(\mathfrak{g})$ to be simple. In this paper, for simply-laced $\mathfrak{g}$ and non-critical $κ$, we determine the weights of singular vectors of $V^κ(\mathfrak{g})$ with minimal conformal weights, when $V^κ(\mathfrak{g})$ is not simple. We further determine all the longest Weyl elements in the Kashiwara-Tanisaki character theorem [KT00] which correspond to the weights of the singular vectors.

Modular invariants and NIM-reps

Given a pivotal module category over a spherical fusion category, we introduce the encircling module, a module over the fusion algebra defined using the pivotal structure, and prove that it is isomorphic to the NIM-rep as a fusion algebra module. When applied to the $\mathcal{TM}$ realisation of the modular invariant partition function (arXiv:1911.09024), this identifies the NIM-rep multiplicities with the entries $Z_{I,I^\vee}$ of the modular invariant (its diagonal relative to the charge-conjugation invariant, which is the one given by the regular module category), providing a categorical generalisation of Böckenhauer, Evans and Kawahigashi's results (arXiv:math/9907149). We also show that for indecomposable module categories the dimension condition on $\mathcal{TM}$ required for modular invariance is automatically satisfied, and that $\mathcal{TM}$ is, as an algebra, the full centre of the module category in the sense of Davydov, Kong and Runkel (arXiv:1307.5956), which for module categories of algebras is the full centre of Fjelstad, Fuchs, Runkel and Schweigert (arXiv:hep-th/0612306). Consequently $\mathcal{TM}$ gives rise to Cardy algebras in the sense of Kong and Runkel (arXiv:0807.3356).

A diagrammatic presentation for every pivotal pointed fusion category

We provide a generators and relations presentation of pivotal pointed fusion categories, $Vec(G,ω,π)$. Unlike the well-known skeletal model, our presentation is strict and allows multiple isomorphic objects. Our main tool is skein theory, which allows us to apply topological tools to understand the relations of morphisms in the category. This expository paper provides details of skein-theoretic work in the setup that allows multiple isomorphic labels in the generators, which didn't previously exist in the literature.
