    The N=1 Supersymmetric Landau Problem and its Supersymmetric Landau Level Projections: the N=1 Supersymmetric Moyal-Voros Superplane

    Get PDF
    The N=1 supersymmetric invariant Landau problem is constructed and solved. By considering Landau level projections remaining non trivial under N=1 supersymmetry transformations, the algebraic structures of the N=1 supersymmetric covariant non(anti)commutative superplane analogue of the ordinary N=0 noncommutative Moyal-Voros plane are identified

    EPRL/FK Group Field Theory

    Full text link
    The purpose of this short note is to clarify the Group Field Theory vertex and propagators corresponding to the EPRL/FK spin foam models and to detail the subtraction of leading divergences of the model.Comment: 20 pages, 2 figure

    Coherent states in noncommutative quantum mechanics

    Full text link
    Gazeau-Klauder coherent states in noncommutative quantum mechanics are considered. We find that these states share similar properties to those of ordinary canonical coherent states in the sense that they saturate the related position uncertainty relation, obey a Poisson distribution and possess a flat geometry. Using the natural isometry between the quantum Hilbert space of Hilbert Schmidt operators and the tensor product of the classical configuration space and its dual, we reveal the inherent vector feature of these states

    qq-graded Heisenberg algebras and deformed supersymmetries

    Full text link
    The notion of qq-grading on the enveloping algebra generated by products of q-deformed Heisenberg algebras is introduced for qq complex number in the unit disc. Within this formulation, we consider the extension of the notion of supersymmetry in the enveloping algebra. We recover the ordinary Z2\mathbb{Z}_2 grading or Grassmann parity for associative superalgebra, and a modified version of the usual supersymmetry. As a specific problem, we focus on the interesting limit q1q\to -1 for which the Arik and Coon deformation of the Heisenberg algebra allows to map fermionic modes to bosonic ones in a modified sense. Different algebraic consequences are discussed.Comment: 2 figure

    Coherent states for continuous spectrum operators with non-normalizable fiducial states

    Full text link
    The problem of building coherent states from non-normalizable fiducial states is considered. We propose a way of constructing such coherent states by regularizing the divergence of the fiducial state norm. Then, we successfully apply the formalism to particular cases involving systems with a continuous spectrum: coherent states for the free particle and for the inverted oscillator (p2x2)(p^2 - x^2) are explicitly provided. Similar ideas can be used for other systems having non-normalizable fiducial states.Comment: 17 pages, typos corrected, references adde

    Bubble divergences: sorting out topology from cell structure

    Full text link
    We conclude our analysis of bubble divergences in the flat spinfoam model. In [arXiv:1008.1476] we showed that the divergence degree of an arbitrary two-complex Gamma can be evaluated exactly by means of twisted cohomology. Here, we specialize this result to the case where Gamma is the two-skeleton of the cell decomposition of a pseudomanifold, and sharpen it with a careful analysis of the cellular and topological structures involved. Moreover, we explain in detail how this approach reproduces all the previous powercounting results for the Boulatov-Ooguri (colored) tensor models, and sheds light on algebraic-topological aspects of Gurau's 1/N expansion.Comment: 19 page

    Ladder operators and coherent states for continuous spectra

    Full text link
    The notion of ladder operators is introduced for systems with continuous spectra. We identify two different kinds of annihilation operators allowing the definition of coherent states as modified "eigenvectors" of these operators. Axioms of Gazeau-Klauder are maintained throughout the construction.Comment: Typos correcte

    Bosonic Colored Group Field Theory

    Full text link
    Bosonic colored group field theory is considered. Focusing first on dimension four, namely the colored Ooguri group field model, the main properties of Feynman graphs are studied. This leads to a theorem on optimal perturbative bounds of Feynman amplitudes in the "ultraspin" (large spin) limit. The results are generalized in any dimension. Finally integrating out two colors we write a new representation which could be useful for the constructive analysis of this type of models

    Coherent states and related quantizations for unbounded motions

    Full text link
    We build coherent states (CS) for unbounded motions along two different procedures. In the first one we adapt the Malkin-Manko construction for quadratic Hamiltonians to the motion of a particle in a linear potential. A generalization to arbitrary potentials is discussed. The second one extends to continuous spectrum previous constructions of action-angle coherent states in view of a consistent energy quantization
