Bounding the dimensions of rational cohomology groups
Let be an algebraically closed field of characteristic , and let
be a simple simply-connected algebraic group over that is defined and
split over the prime field . In this paper we investigate
situations where the dimension of a rational cohomology group for can be
bounded by a constant times the dimension of the coefficient module. We then
demonstrate how our results can be applied to obtain effective bounds on the
first cohomology of the symmetric group. We also show how, for finite Chevalley
groups, our methods permit significant improvements over previous estimates for
the dimensions of second cohomology groups.Comment: 13 page
On dual canonical bases
The dual basis of the canonical basis of the modified quantized enveloping
algebra is studied, in particular for type . The construction of a basis for
the coordinate algebra of the quantum matrices is appropriate for
the study the multiplicative property. It is shown that this basis is invariant
under multiplication by certain quantum minors including the quantum
determinant. Then a basis of quantum SL(n) is obtained by setting the quantum
determinant to one. This basis turns out to be equivalent to the dual canonical
basis
Quantum spin coverings and statistics
SL_q(2) at odd roots of unity q^l =1 is studied as a quantum cover of the
complex rotation group SO(3,C), in terms of the associated Hopf algebras of
(quantum) polynomial functions. We work out the irreducible corepresentations,
the decomposition of their tensor products and a coquasitriangular structure,
with the associated braiding (or statistics). As an example, the case l=3 is
discussed in detail.Comment: 15 page
Coherent States for Quantum Compact Groups
Coherent states are introduced and their properties are discussed for all
simple quantum compact groups. The multiplicative form of the canonical element
for the quantum double is used to introduce the holomorphic coordinates on a
general quantum dressing orbit and interpret the coherent state as a
holomorphic function on this orbit with values in the carrier Hilbert space of
an irreducible representation of the corresponding quantized enveloping
algebra. Using Gauss decomposition, the commutation relations for the
holomorphic coordinates on the dressing orbit are derived explicitly and given
in a compact R--matrix formulation (generalizing this way the --deformed
Grassmann and flag manifolds). The antiholomorphic realization of the
irreducible representations of a compact quantum group (the analogue of the
Borel--Weil construction) are described using the concept of coherent state.
The relation between representation theory and non--commutative differential
geometry is suggested.}Comment: 25 page
Urban energy consumption and CO2 emissions in Beijing: current and future
This paper calculates the energy consumption and CO2 emissions of Beijing over 2005–2011 in light of the Beijing’s energy balance table and the carbon emission coefficients of IPCC. Furthermore, based on a series of energy conservation planning program issued in Beijing, the Long-range Energy Alternatives Planning System (LEAP)-BJ model is developed to study the energy consumption and CO2 emissions of Beijing’s six end-use sectors and the energy conversion sector over 2012–2030 under the BAU scenario and POL scenario. Some results are found in this research: (1) During 2005–2011, the energy consumption kept increasing, while the total CO2 emissions fluctuated obviously in 2008 and 2011. The energy structure and the industrial structure have been optimized to a certain extent. (2) If the policies are completely implemented, the POL scenario is projected to save 21.36 and 35.37 % of the total energy consumption and CO2 emissions than the BAU scenario during 2012 and 2030. (3) The POL scenario presents a more optimized energy structure compared with the BAU scenario, with the decrease of coal consumption and the increase of natural gas consumption. (4) The commerce and service sector and the energy conversion sector will become the largest contributor to energy consumption and CO2 emissions, respectively. The transport sector and the industrial sector are the two most potential sectors in energy savings and carbon reduction. In terms of subscenarios, the energy conservation in transport (TEC) is the most effective one. (5) The macroparameters, such as the GDP growth rate and the industrial structure, have great influence on the urban energy consumption and carbon emissions
