    Duality and Representations for New Exotic Bialgebras

    Full text link
    We find the exotic matrix bialgebras which correspond to the two non-triangular nonsingular 4x4 R-matrices in the classification of Hietarinta, namely, R_{S0,3} and R_{S1,4}. We find two new exotic bialgebras S03 and S14 which are not deformations of the of the classical algebras of functions on GL(2) or GL(1|1). With this we finalize the classification of the matrix bialgebras which unital associative algebras generated by four elements. We also find the corresponding dual bialgebras of these new exotic bialgebras and study their representation theory in detail. We also discuss in detail a special case of R_{S1,4} in which the corresponding algebra turns out to be a special case of the two-parameter quantum group deformation GL_{p,q}(2).Comment: 33 pages, LaTeX2e, using packages: cite,amsfonts,amsmath,subeqn; reference updated; v3: corrections in subsection 3.

    Exotic Bialgebra S03: Representations, Baxterisation and Applications

    Full text link
    The exotic bialgebra S03, defined by a solution of the Yang-Baxter equation, which is not a deformation of the trivial, is considered. Its FRT dual algebra s03Fs03_F is studied. The Baxterisation of the dual algebra is given in two different parametrisations. The finite-dimensional representations of s03Fs03_F are considered. Diagonalisations of the braid matrices are used to yield remarkable insights concerning representations of the L-algebra and to formulate the fusion of finite-dimensional representations. Possible applications are considered, in particular, an exotic eight-vertex model and an integrable spin-chain model.Comment: 24 pages, Latex; V2: revised subsection 4.1, added 9 references, to appear in Annales Henri Poincare in the volume dedicated to D.

    The Spectrum of Yang Mills on a Sphere

    Full text link
    In this note, we determine the representation content of the free, large N, SU(N) Yang Mills theory on a sphere by decomposing its thermal partition function into characters of the irreducible representations of the conformal group SO(4,2). We also discuss the generalization of this procedure to finding the representation content of N=4 Super Yang Mills.Comment: 18 pages v2. references added. typos fixe

    Invariant Differential Operators and Characters of the AdS_4 Algebra

    Full text link
    The aim of this paper is to apply systematically to AdS_4 some modern tools in the representation theory of Lie algebras which are easily generalised to the supersymmetric and quantum group settings and necessary for applications to string theory and integrable models. Here we introduce the necessary representations of the AdS_4 algebra and group. We give explicitly all singular (null) vectors of the reducible AdS_4 Verma modules. These are used to obtain the AdS_4 invariant differential operators. Using this we display a new structure - a diagram involving four partially equivalent reducible representations one of which contains all finite-dimensional irreps of the AdS_4 algebra. We study in more detail the cases involving UIRs, in particular, the Di and the Rac singletons, and the massless UIRs. In the massless case we discover the structure of sets of 2s_0-1 conserved currents for each spin s_0 UIR, s_0=1,3/2,... All massless cases are contained in a one-parameter subfamily of the quartet diagrams mentioned above, the parameter being the spin s_0. Further we give the classification of the so(5,C) irreps presented in a diagramatic way which makes easy the derivation of all character formulae. The paper concludes with a speculation on the possible applications of the character formulae to integrable models.Comment: 30 pages, 4 figures, TEX-harvmac with input files: amssym.def, amssym.tex, epsf.tex; version 2 1 reference added; v3: minor corrections; v.4: minor corrections, v.5: minor corrections to conform with version in J.

    Explicit Character Formulae for Positive Energy UIRs of D=4 Conformal Supersymmetry

    Full text link
    This paper continues the project of constructing the character formulae for the positive energy unitary irreducible representations of the N-extended D=4 conformal superalgebras su(2,2/N). In the first paper we gave the bare characters which represent the defining odd entries of the characters. Now we give the full explicit character formulae for N=1 and for several important examples for N=2 and N=4.Comment: 48 pages, TeX with Harvmac, overlap in preliminaries with arXiv:hep-th/0406154; some comments and references adde

    Duality for the Jordanian Matrix Quantum Group GLg,h(2)GL_{g,h}(2)

    Full text link
    We find the Hopf algebra Ug,hU_{g,h} dual to the Jordanian matrix quantum group GLg,h(2)GL_{g,h}(2). As an algebra it depends only on the sum of the two parameters and is split in two subalgebras: Ug,hU'_{g,h} (with three generators) and U(Z)U(Z) (with one generator). The subalgebra U(Z)U(Z) is a central Hopf subalgebra of Ug,hU_{g,h}. The subalgebra Ug,hU'_{g,h} is not a Hopf subalgebra and its coalgebra structure depends on both parameters. We discuss also two one-parameter special cases: g=hg =h and g=hg=-h. The subalgebra Uh,hU'_{h,h} is a Hopf algebra and coincides with the algebra introduced by Ohn as the dual of SLh(2)SL_h(2). The subalgebra Uh,hU'_{-h,h} is isomorphic to U(sl(2))U(sl(2)) as an algebra but has a nontrivial coalgebra structure and again is not a Hopf subalgebra of Uh,hU_{-h,h}.Comment: plain TeX with harvmac, 16 pages, added Appendix implementing the ACC nonlinear ma

    Superconformal field theories from IIB spectroscopy on AdS5×T11AdS_5\times T^{11}

    Full text link
    We report on tests of the AdS/CFT correspondence that are made possible by complete knowledge of the Kaluza-Klein mass spectrum of type IIB supergravity on AdS5×T11AdS_5 \times T^{11} with T^{11}=SU(2)^2/U(1). After briefly discussing general multiplet shortening conditions in SU(2,2|1) and PSU(2,2|4), we compare various types of short SU(2,2|1) supermultiplets on AdS_5 and different families of boundary operators with protected dimensions. The supergravity analysis predicts the occurrence in the SCFT at leading order in N and g_s N, of extra towers of long multiplets whose dimensions are rational but not protected by supersymmetry.Comment: 11 pages, To appear in the proceedings of the STRINGS '99 conference, Potsdam (Germany), 19-25 July 199
