On the spectra of the quantized action-variables of the compactified Ruijsenaars-Schneider system

A simple derivation of the spectra of the action-variables of the quantized compactified Ruijsenaars-Schneider system is presented. The spectra are obtained by combining Kahler quantization with the identification of the classical action-variables as a standard toric moment map on the complex projective space. The result is consistent with the Schrodinger quantization of the system worked out previously by van Diejen and Vinet.Comment: Based on talk at the workshop CQIS-2011 (Protvino, Russia, January 2011), 12 page

Rational W W algebras from composite operators

Factoring out the spin $1$ subalgebra of a $W$ algebra leads to a new $W$ structure which can be seen either as a rational finitely generated $W$ algebra or as a polynomial non-linear $W_\infty$ realization.Comment: 11 pages, LATEX, preprint ENSLAPP-AL-429/93 and NORDITA-93/47-

Normkonvergenz von Fourierreihen in rearrangement invarianten Banachräumen

AbstractThis paper studies rearrangement invariant Banach spaces of 2π-periodic functions with respect to norm convergence of Fourier series. The main result is that norm convergence takes place if and only if the space is an interpolation space of (Lp′(T), Lp(T)), 1 < p < 2, 1p′ + 1p = 1, and Lp′(T) is dense in it (compare Satz 2.8). Since norm convergence and continuity of the conjugation operator are closely connected (compare Satz 2.2), this is achieved by a careful examination of this operator similar to that of D. W. Boyd for the Hilbert transform on the whole real axis. Finally, there are applications to Orlicz and Lorentz spaces

Extended matrix Gelfand-Dickey hierarchies: reduction to classical Lie algebras

The Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction method has been used to associate with $gl_n$ extensions of the matrix r-KdV system. Reductions of these systems to the fixed point sets of involutive Poisson maps, implementing reduction of $gl_n$ to classical Lie algebras of type $B, C, D$, are here presented. Modifications corresponding, in the first place to factorisation of the Lax operator, and then to Wakimoto realisations of the current algebra components of the factorisation, are also described.Comment: plain TeX, 12 page

A note on the appearance of self-dual Yang-Mills fields in integrable hierarchies

A family of mappings from the solution spaces of certain generalized Drinfeld-Sokolov hierarchies to the self-dual Yang-Mills system on R^{2,2} is described. This provides an extension of the well-known relationship between self-dual connections and integrable hierarchies of AKNS and Drinfeld-Sokolov type

On the duality between the hyperbolic Sutherland and the rational Ruijsenaars-Schneider models

We consider two families of commuting Hamiltonians on the cotangent bundle of the group GL(n,C), and show that upon an appropriate single symplectic reduction they descend to the spectral invariants of the hyperbolic Sutherland and of the rational Ruijsenaars-Schneider Lax matrices, respectively. The duality symplectomorphism between these two integrable models, that was constructed by Ruijsenaars using direct methods, can be then interpreted geometrically simply as a gauge transformation connecting two cross sections of the orbits of the reduction group.Comment: 16 pages, v2: comments and references added at the end of the tex

On the Completeness of the Set of Classical W-Algebras Obtained from DS Reductions

We clarify the notion of the DS --- generalized Drinfeld-Sokolov --- reduction approach to classical ${\cal W}$-algebras. We first strengthen an earlier theorem which showed that an $sl(2)$ embedding ${\cal S}\subset {\cal G}$ can be associated to every DS reduction. We then use the fact that a \W-algebra must have a quasi-primary basis to derive severe restrictions on the possible reductions corresponding to a given $sl(2)$ embedding. In the known DS reductions found to date, for which the \W-algebras are denoted by ${\cal W}_{\cal S}^{\cal G}$-algebras and are called canonical, the quasi-primary basis corresponds to the highest weights of the $sl(2)$. Here we find some examples of noncanonical DS reductions leading to \W-algebras which are direct products of ${\cal W}_{\cal S}^{\cal G}$-algebras and `free field' algebras with conformal weights $\Delta \in \{0, {1\over 2}, 1\}$. We also show that if the conformal weights of the generators of a ${\cal W}$-algebra obtained from DS reduction are nonnegative $\Delta \geq 0$ (which isComment: 48 pages, plain TeX, BONN-HE-93-14, DIAS-STP-93-0

Extensions of the matrix Gelfand-Dickey hierarchy from generalized Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction

The $p\times p$ matrix version of the $r$-KdV hierarchy has been recently treated as the reduced system arising in a Drinfeld-Sokolov type Hamiltonian symmetry reduction applied to a Poisson submanifold in the dual of the Lie algebra $\widehat{gl}_{pr}\otimes {\Complex}[\lambda, \lambda^{-1}]$. Here a series of extensions of this matrix Gelfand-Dickey system is derived by means of a generalized Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction defined for the Lie algebra $\widehat{gl}_{pr+s}\otimes {\Complex}[\lambda,\lambda^{-1}]$ using the natural embedding $gl_{pr}\subset gl_{pr+s}$ for $s$ any positive integer. The hierarchies obtained admit a description in terms of a $p\times p$ matrix pseudo-differential operator comprising an $r$-KdV type positive part and a non-trivial negative part. This system has been investigated previously in the $p=1$ case as a constrained KP system. In this paper the previous results are considerably extended and a systematic study is presented on the basis of the Drinfeld-Sokolov approach that has the advantage that it leads to local Poisson brackets and makes clear the conformal ($\cal W$-algebra) structures related to the KdV type hierarchies. Discrete reductions and modified versions of the extended $r$-KdV hierarchies are also discussed.Comment: 60 pages, plain TE

Effect of magnesium doping on the orbital and magnetic order in LiNiO2

In LiNiO2, the Ni3+ ions, with S=1/2 and twofold orbital degeneracy, are arranged on a trian- gular lattice. Using muon spin relaxation (MuSR) and electron spin resonance (ESR), we show that magnesium doping does not stabilize any magnetic or orbital order, despite the absence of interplane Ni2+. A disordered, slowly fluctuating state develops below 12 K. In addition, we find that magnons are excited on the time scale of the ESR experiment. At the same time, a g factor anisotropy is observed, in agreement with $| 3z^{2}-r^{2}>$ orbital occupancy
