Representations of Composite Braids and Invariants for Mutant Knots and Links in Chern-Simons Field Theories

We show that any of the new knot invariants obtained from Chern-Simons theory based on an arbitrary non-abelian gauge group do not distinguish isotopically inequivalent mutant knots and links. In an attempt to distinguish these knots and links, we study Murakami (symmetrized version) $r$-strand composite braids. Salient features of the theory of such composite braids are presented. Representations of generators for these braids are obtained by exploiting properties of Hilbert spaces associated with the correlators of Wess-Zumino conformal field theories. The $r$-composite invariants for the knots are given by the sum of elementary Chern-Simons invariants associated with the irreducible representations in the product of $r$ representations (allowed by the fusion rules of the corresponding Wess-Zumino conformal field theory) placed on the $r$ individual strands of the composite braid. On the other hand, composite invariants for links are given by a weighted sum of elementary multicoloured Chern-Simons invariants. Some mutant links can be distinguished through the composite invariants, but mutant knots do not share this property. The results, though developed in detail within the framework of $SU(2)$ Chern-Simons theory are valid for any other non-abelian gauge group.

Generalized Deformed su(2) Algebras, Deformed Parafermionic Oscillators and Finite W Algebras

Several physical systems (two identical particles in two dimensions, isotropic oscillator and Kepler system in a 2-dim curved space) and mathematical structures (quadratic algebra QH(3), finite W algebra $\bar {\rm W}_0$) are shown to posses the structure of a generalized deformed su(2) algebra, the representation theory of which is known. Furthermore, the generalized deformed parafermionic oscillator is identified with the algebra of several physical systems (isotropic oscillator and Kepler system in 2-dim curved space, Fokas--Lagerstrom, Smorodinsky--Winternitz and Holt potentials) and mathematical constructions (generalized deformed su(2) algebra, finite W algebras $\bar {\rm W}_0$ and W$_3^{(2)}$). The fact that the Holt potential is characterized by the W$_3^{(2)}$ symmetry is obtained as a by-product.

The Master Field for Large $N$ Matrix Models and Quantum Groups

In recent works by Singer, Douglas and Gopakumar and Gross an application of results of Voiculescu from non-commutative probability theory to constructions of the master field for large $N$ matrix field theories have been suggested. In this note we consider interrelations between the master field and quantum groups. We define the master field algebra and observe that it is isomorphic to the algebra of functions on the quantum group $SU_q(2)$ for $q=0$. The master field becomes a central element of the quantum group Hopf algebra. The quantum Haar measure on the $SU_q(2)$ for any $q$ gives the Wigner semicircle distribution for the master field. Coherent states on $SU_q(2)$ become coherent states in the master field theory.

Q-Deformed Oscillator Algebra and an Index Theorem for the Photon Phase Operator

The quantum deformation of the oscillator algebra and its implications on the phase operator are studied from a view point of an index theorem by using an explicit matrix representation. For a positive deformation parameter $q$ or $q=exp(2πiθ)$ with an irrational $θ$, one obtains an index condition $\dml a - \dml a^{\dagger} = 1$ which allows only a non-hermitian phase operator with $\dml \expon^{i φ} - \dml (\expon^{iφ})^{\dagger} = 1$. For $q=exp(2πiθ)$ with a rational $θ$ , one formally obtains the singular situation $\dml a =\infty$ and $ \dml a^{\dagger} = \infty$, which allows a hermitian phase operator with $\dml \expon^{i Φ} - \dml (\expon^{iΦ})^{\dagger} = 0$ as well as the non-hermitian one with $\dml \expon^{i φ} - \dml (\expon^{iφ})^{\dagger} = 1$. Implications of this interpretation of the quantum deformation are discussed. We also show how to overcome the problem of negative norm for $q=exp(2πiθ)$.

w_{\infty} and sl_q(2) Algebras in the Landau Problem and Chern-Simons Theory on a Torus

We discuss $w_\infty$ and $sl_q(2)$ symmetries in Chern-Simons theory and Landau problem on a torus. It is shown that when the coefficient of the Chern-Simons term, or when the total flux passing through the torus is a rational number, there exist in general two $w_\infty$ and two $sl_q(2)$ algebras, instead of one set each discussed in the literature. The general wavefunctions for the Landau problem with rational total flux is also presented.

Lie-Poisson groups and the Miura transformation

We point out that the recent proof of the Kupershmidt-Wilson theorem by Cheng and Mas-Ramos is underpinned by the Lie-Poisson property of the second Gel'fand-Dickey bracket. The supersymmetric Kupershmidt-Wilson theorem is also proved along these same lines. Finally we comment on the possible repercussions in the problem of the coproduct for W-algebras.

Exact Bethe ansatz solution of nonultralocal quantum mKdV model

A lattice regularized Lax operator for the nonultralocal modified Korteweg de Vries (mKdV) equation is proposed at the quantum level with the basic operators satisfying a $q$-deformed braided algebra. Finding further the associated quantum $R$ and $Z$-matrices the exact integrability of the model is proved through the braided quantum Yang--Baxter equation, a suitably generalized equation for the nonultralocal models. Using the algebraic Bethe ansatz the eigenvalue problem of the quantum mKdV model is exactly solved and its connection with the spin-$\ha$ XXZ chain is established, facilitating the investigation of the corresponding conformal properties.

The universal R-matrix for the Jordanian deformation of sl(2), and the contracted forms of so(4)

We introduce a universal R matrix for the Jordanian deformation of $\U{ \sl(2)}$. Using $\Uh{\so(4)}=\Uh{\sl(2)} \oplus {\rm U}_{-h}(\sl(2))$, we obtain the universal R matrix for $\Uh{\so(4)}$. Applying the graded contractions on the universal R matrix of $\Uh{\so(4)}$, we show that there exist three distinct R matrices for all of the contracted algebras. It is shown that $\Uh{\sl(2)}$, $\Uh{\so(4)}$, and all of these contracted algebras are triangular.

The Braided Quantum 2-Sphere

In a recent paper the quantum 2-sphere $S^2_q$ was described as a quantum complex manifold. Here we consider several copies of $S^2_q$ and derive their braiding commutation relations. The braiding is extended to the differential and to the integral calculus on the spheres. A quantum analogue of the classical anharmonic ratio of four points on the sphere is given, which is invariant under the coaction of $SU_q(2)$.

$Psi$ - Vectors for Three Dimensional Models

In this paper we apply the method of psi-vectors to three dimensional statistical models. This method gives the correspondence between the Bazhanov -- Baxter model and its vertex formulation. Considering psi-vectors for the Planar model, we obtain its self-duality.

We study quantum deformed $gl(n)$ and $igl(n)$ algebras on a quantum space discussing multi-parametric extension. We realize elements of deformed $gl(n)$ and $igl(n)$ algebras by a quantum fermionic space. We investigate a map between deformed $igl(2)$ algebras of our basis and other basis.

(2+1) null-plane quantum Poincaré group from a factorized universal $R$-matrix

The non-standard (Jordanian) quantum deformations of $so(2,2)$ and (2+1) Poincaré algebras are constructed by starting from a quantum $sl(2,\R)$ basis such that simple factorized expressions for their corresponding universal $R$-matrices are obtained. As an application, the null-plane quantum (2+1) Poincaré Poisson-Lie group is quantized by following the FRT prescription. Matrix and differential representations of this null-plane deformation are presented, and the influence of the choice of the basis in the resultant $q$-Schrödinger equation governing the deformed null plane evolution is commented.

An explicit construction of Wakimoto realizations of current algebras

It is known from a work of Feigin and Frenkel that a Wakimoto type, generalized free field realization of the current algebra $\widehat{\cal G}_k$ can be associated with each parabolic subalgebra ${\cal P}=({\cal G}_0+{\cal G}_+)$ of the Lie algebra ${\cal G}$, where in the standard case ${\cal G}_0$ is the Cartan and ${\cal P}$ is the Borel subalgebra. In this letter we obtain an explicit formula for the Wakimoto realization in the general case. Using Hamiltonian reduction of the WZNW model, we first derive a Poisson bracket realization of the ${\cal G}$-valued current in terms of symplectic bosons belonging to ${\cal G}_+$ and a current belonging to ${\cal G}_0$. We then quantize the formula by determining the correct normal ordering. We also show that the affine-Sugawara stress-energy tensor takes the expected quadratic form in the constituents.

Symmetric Multiplets in Quantum Algebras

We consider a modified version of the coproduct for $\U(\su_q(2))$ and show that in the limit when $q \rightarrow 1$, there exists an essentially non-cocommutative coproduct. We study the implications of this non-cocommutativity for a system of two spin-$1/2$ particles. Here it is shown that, unlike the usual case, this non-trivial coproduct allows for symmetric and anti-symmetric states to be present in the multiplet. We surmise that our analysis could be related to the ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic cases of the Heisenberg magnets.

Lickorish Invariant And Quantum OSP(1|2)

Lickorish's method for constructing topological invariants of 3 - manifolds is generalized to the quantum supergroup setting. An invariant is obtained by applying this method to the Kauffman polynomial arising from the vector representation of Uq(osp(1|2)). A transparent proof is also given showing that this invariant is equivalent to the Uq(osp(1|2)) invariant obtained in an earlier publication.

Irreducible Representations of Jordanian Quantum Algebra ${\cal U}_h(sl(2))$ Via a Nonlinear Map

The generators of the Jordanian quantum algebra ${\cal U}_h(sl(2))$ are expressed as nonlinear invertible functions of the classical $sl(2)$ generators. This permits immediate explicit construction of the finite dimensional irreducible representations of the algebra ${\cal U}_h(sl(2))$. Using this construction, new finite dimensional solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation may be obtained.

R-deformed Heisenberg algebra

It is shown that the deformed Heisenberg algebra involving the reflection operator R (R-deformed Heisenberg algebra) has finite-dimensional representations which are equivalent to representations of paragrassmann algebra with a special differentiation operator. Guon-like form of the algebra, related to the generalized statistics, is found. Some applications of revealed representations of the R-deformed Heisenberg algebra are discussed in the context of OSp(2|2) supersymmetry. It is shown that these representations can be employed for realizing (2+1)-dimensional supersymmetry. They give also a possibility to construct a universal spinor set of linear differential equations describing either fractional spin fields (anyons) or ordinary integer and half-integer spin fields in 2+1 dimensions.
