Representations of the discrete inhomogeneous Lorentz group and Dirac wave equation on the lattice

We propose the fundamental and two dimensional representation of the Lorentz groups on a (3+1)-dimensional hypercubic lattice, from which representations of higher dimensions can be constructed. For the unitary representation of the discrete translation group we use the kernel of the Fourier transform. From the Dirac representation of the Lorentz group (including reflections) we derive in a natural way the wave equation on the lattice for spin 1/2 particles. Finally the induced representation of the discrete inhomogeneous Lorentz group is constructed by standard methods and its connection with the continuous case is discussed.Comment: LaTeX, 20 pages, 1 eps figure, uses iopconf.sty (late submission

AdS/CFT and quantum-corrected brane entropy

It is shown that quantum-induced (inflationary) brane Universe occurs in the bulk 5d AdS black hole in accordance with AdS/CFT correspondence. Brane stress tensor is induced by quantum effects of dual CFT and brane crosses the horizon of AdS black hole. Quantum-corrected Hubble constant, Hawking temperature and entropy are found on the brane (and at the horizon). The similarity between CFT entropy at the horizon and FRW equations is extended on the quantum level. This suggests the way to understand cosmological entropy bounds in quantum gravity.Comment: LaTeX file 17 pages, discussion is extended, version to appear in CQ
