Directed abelian algebras and their applications to stochastic models
To each directed acyclic graph (this includes some D-dimensional lattices)
one can associate some abelian algebras that we call directed abelian algebras
(DAA). On each site of the graph one attaches a generator of the algebra. These
algebras depend on several parameters and are semisimple. Using any DAA one can
define a family of Hamiltonians which give the continuous time evolution of a
stochastic process. The calculation of the spectra and ground state
wavefunctions (stationary states probability distributions) is an easy
algebraic exercise. If one considers D-dimensional lattices and choose
Hamiltonians linear in the generators, in the finite-size scaling the
Hamiltonian spectrum is gapless with a critical dynamic exponent . One
possible application of the DAA is to sandpile models. In the paper we present
this application considering one and two dimensional lattices. In the one
dimensional case, when the DAA conserves the number of particles, the
avalanches belong to the random walker universality class (critical exponent
). We study the local densityof particles inside large
avalanches showing a depletion of particles at the source of the avalanche and
an enrichment at its end. In two dimensions we did extensive Monte-Carlo
simulations and found .Comment: 14 pages, 9 figure
Tsirelson's bound and supersymmetric entangled states
A superqubit, belonging to a -dimensional super-Hilbert space,
constitutes the minimal supersymmetric extension of the conventional qubit. In
order to see whether superqubits are more nonlocal than ordinary qubits, we
construct a class of two-superqubit entangled states as a nonlocal resource in
the CHSH game. Since super Hilbert space amplitudes are Grassmann numbers, the
result depends on how we extract real probabilities and we examine three
choices of map: (1) DeWitt (2) Trigonometric (3) Modified Rogers. In cases (1)
and (2) the winning probability reaches the Tsirelson bound
of standard quantum mechanics. Case (3)
crosses Tsirelson's bound with . Although all states used
in the game involve probabilities lying between 0 and 1, case (3) permits other
changes of basis inducing negative transition probabilities.Comment: Updated to match published version. Minor modifications. References

The "topological" charge for the finite XX quantum chain
It is shown that an operator (in general non-local) commutes with the
Hamiltonian describing the finite XX quantum chain with certain non-diagonal
boundary terms. In the infinite volume limit this operator gives the
"topological" charge.Comment: 5 page
Representation Theory of Quantized Poincare Algebra. Tensor Operators and Their Application to One-Partical Systems
A representation theory of the quantized Poincar\'e (-Poincar\'e)
algebra (QPA) is developed. We show that the representations of this algebra
are closely connected with the representations of the non-deformed Poincar\'e
algebra. A theory of tensor operators for QPA is considered in detail.
Necessary and sufficient conditions are found in order for scalars to be
invariants. Covariant components of the four-momenta and the Pauli-Lubanski
vector are explicitly constructed.These results are used for the construction
of some q-relativistic equations. The Wigner-Eckart theorem for QPA is proven.Comment: 18 page
Spontaneous Breaking of Translational Invariance in One-Dimensional Stationary States on a Ring
We consider a model in which positive and negative particles diffuse in an
asymmetric, CP-invariant way on a ring. The positive particles hop clockwise,
the negative counterclockwise and oppositely-charged adjacent particles may
swap positions. Monte-Carlo simulations and analytic calculations suggest that
the model has three phases; a "pure" phase in which one has three pinned blocks
of only positive, negative particles and vacancies, and in which translational
invariance is spontaneously broken, a "mixed" phase with a non-vanishing
current in which the three blocks are positive, negative and neutral, and a
disordered phase without blocks.Comment: 7 pages, LaTeX, needs epsf.st
Conformal invariance and its breaking in a stochastic model of a fluctuating interface
Using Monte-Carlo simulations on large lattices, we study the effects of
changing the parameter (the ratio of the adsorption and desorption rates)
of the raise and peel model. This is a nonlocal stochastic model of a
fluctuating interface. We show that for the system is massive, for
it is massless and conformal invariant. For the conformal
invariance is broken. The system is in a scale invariant but not conformal
invariant phase. As far as we know it is the first example of a system which
shows such a behavior. Moreover in the broken phase, the critical exponents
vary continuously with the parameter . This stays true also for the critical
exponent which characterizes the probability distribution function of
avalanches (the critical exponent staying unchanged).Comment: 22 pages and 20 figure
Tensor operators and Wigner-Eckart theorem for the quantum superalgebra U_{q}[osp(1\mid 2)]
Tensor operators in graded representations of Z_{2}-graded Hopf algebras are
defined and their elementary properties are derived. Wigner-Eckart theorem for
irreducible tensor operators for U_{q}[osp(1\mid 2)] is proven. Examples of
tensor operators in the irreducible representation space of Hopf algebra
U_{q}[osp(1\mid 2)] are considered. The reduced matrix elements for the
irreducible tensor operators are calculated. A construction of some elements of
the center of U_{q}[osp(1\mid 2)] is given.Comment: 16 pages, Late
Stochastic Models on a Ring and Quadratic Algebras. The Three Species Diffusion Problem
The stationary state of a stochastic process on a ring can be expressed using
traces of monomials of an associative algebra defined by quadratic relations.
If one considers only exclusion processes one can restrict the type of algebras
and obtain recurrence relations for the traces. This is possible only if the
rates satisfy certain compatibility conditions. These conditions are derived
and the recurrence relations solved giving representations of the algebras.Comment: 12 pages, LaTeX, Sec. 3 extended, submitted to J.Phys.
The Matrix Model for M Theory as an Exemplar of Trace (or Generalized Quantum) Dynamics
We show that the recently proposed matrix model for M theory obeys the cyclic
trace assumptions underlying generalized quantum or trace dynamics. This
permits a verification of supersymmetry as an operator calculation, and a
calculation of the supercharge density algebra by using the generalized Poisson
bracket, in a basis-independent manner that makes no reference to individual
matrix elements. Implications for quantization of the model are discussed. Our
results are a special case of a general result presented elsewhere, that all
rigid supersymmetry theories can be extended to give supersymmetric trace
dynamics theories, in which the supersymmetry algebra is represented by the
generalized Poisson bracket of trace supercharges, constructed from fields that
form a noncommutative trace class graded operator algebra.Comment: plaintex, 13 Page
Deformation of orthosymplectic Lie superalgebra osp(1|2)
Triangular deformation of the orthosymplectic Lie superalgebra osp(1|4) is
defined by chains of twists. Corresponding classical r-matrix is obtained by a
contraction procedure from the trigonometric r-matrix. The carrier space of the
constant r-matrix is the Borel subalgebra.Comment: LaTeX, 8 page
