Gel'fand-Zetlin Basis and Clebsch-Gordan Coefficients for Covariant Representations of the Lie superalgebra gl(m|n)

A Gel'fand-Zetlin basis is introduced for the irreducible covariant tensor representations of the Lie superalgebra gl(m|n). Explicit expressions for the generators of the Lie superalgebra acting on this basis are determined. Furthermore, Clebsch-Gordan coefficients corresponding to the tensor product of any covariant tensor representation of gl(m|n) with the natural representation V ([1,0,...,0]) of gl(m|n) with highest weight (1,0,. . . ,0) are computed. Both results are steps for the explicit construction of the parastatistics Fock space.Comment: 16 page

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

Comments on Drinfeld Realization of Quantum Affine Superalgebra Uq[gl(m∣n)(1)]U_q[gl(m|n)^{(1)}] and its Hopf Algebra Structure

By generalizing the Reshetikhin and Semenov-Tian-Shansky construction to supersymmetric cases, we obtain Drinfeld current realization for quantum affine superalgebra $U_q[gl(m|n)^{(1)}]$. We find a simple coproduct for the quantum current generators and establish the Hopf algebra structure of this super current algebra.Comment: Some errors and misprints corrected and a remark in section 4 removed. 12 pages, Latex fil

Uqosp(2,2)U_q osp(2,2) Lattice Models

In this paper I construct lattice models with an underlying $U_q osp(2,2)$ superalgebra symmetry. I find new solutions to the graded Yang-Baxter equation. These {\it trigonometric} $R$-matrices depend on {\it three} continuous parameters, the spectral parameter, the deformation parameter $q$ and the $U(1)$ parameter, $b$, of the superalgebra. It must be emphasized that the parameter $q$ is generic and the parameter $b$ does not correspond to the `nilpotency' parameter of \cite{gs}. The rational limits are given; they also depend on the $U(1)$ parameter and this dependence cannot be rescaled away. I give the Bethe ansatz solution of the lattice models built from some of these $R$-matrices, while for other matrices, due to the particular nature of the representation theory of $osp(2,2)$, I conjecture the result. The parameter $b$ appears as a continuous generalized spin. Finally I briefly discuss the problem of finding the ground state of these models.Comment: 19 pages, plain LaTeX, no figures.

Finite dimensional representations of Uq(C(n+1))U_q(C(n+1)) at arbitrary qq

A method is developed to construct irreducible representations(irreps) of the quantum supergroup $U_q(C(n+1))$ in a systematic fashion. It is shown that every finite dimensional irrep of this quantum supergroup at generic $q$ is a deformation of a finite dimensional irrep of its underlying Lie superalgebra $C(n+1)$, and is essentially uniquely characterized by a highest weight. The character of the irrep is given. When $q$ is a root of unity, all irreps of $U_q(C(n+1))$ are finite dimensional; multiply atypical highest weight irreps and (semi)cyclic irreps also exist. As examples, all the highest weight and (semi)cyclic irreps of $U_q(C(2))$ are thoroughly studied.Comment: 21 page

Wigner quantum oscillators. Osp(3/2) oscillators

The properties of the three-dimensional noncanonical osp(3/2) oscillators, introduced in J.Phys. A: Math. Gen. {\bf 27} (1994) 977, are further studied. The angular momentum M of the oscillators can take at most three values M=p-1,p,p+1, which are either all integers or all half-integers. The coordinates anticommute with each other. Depending on the state space the energy spectrum can coincide or can be essentially different from those of the canonical oscillator. The ground state is in general degenerated.Comment: TeX, Preprint INRNE-TH-94/3, 17

Conserved Charges in the Principal Chiral Model on a Supergroup

The classical principal chiral model in 1+1 dimensions with target space a compact Lie supergroup is investigated. It is shown how to construct a local conserved charge given an invariant tensor of the Lie superalgebra. We calculate the super-Poisson brackets of these currents and argue that they are finitely generated. We show how to derive an infinite number of local charges in involution. We demonstrate that these charges Poisson commute with the non-local charges of the model

On representations of super coalgebras

The general structure of the representation theory of a $Z_2$-graded coalgebra is discussed. The result contains the structure of Fourier analysis on compact supergroups and quantisations thereof as a special case. The general linear supergroups serve as an explicit illustration and the simplest example is carried out in detail.Comment: 18 pages, LaTeX, KCL-TH-94-

Hom-Lie color algebra structures

This paper introduces the notion of Hom-Lie color algebra, which is a natural general- ization of Hom-Lie (super)algebras. Hom-Lie color algebras include also as special cases Lie (super) algebras and Lie color algebras. We study the homomorphism relation of Hom-Lie color algebras, and construct new algebras of such kind by a \sigma-twist. Hom-Lie color admissible algebras are also defined and investigated. They are finally classified via G-Hom-associative color algebras, where G is a subgroup of the symmetric group S_3.Comment: 16 page

Exact exponents for the spin quantum Hall transition

We consider the spin quantum Hall transition which may occur in disordered superconductors with unbroken SU(2) spin-rotation symmetry but broken time-reversal symmetry. Using supersymmetry, we map a model for this transition onto the two-dimensional percolation problem. The anisotropic limit is an sl(2|1) supersymmetric spin chain. The mapping gives exact values for critical exponents associated with disorder-averages of several observables in good agreement with recent numerical results.Comment: 5 pages, 2 figure
