Harmonic functions and the spectrum of the Laplacian on the Sierpinski carpet. Preliminary report. Kusuoka and Zhou have defined the Laplacian on the Sierpinski carpet using average values of functions on small cells and the graph structure of cell adjacency. We have implemented an algorithm that uses their method to approximate solutions to boundary value problems. As a result we have a wealth of data concerning harmonic functions with prescribed boundary values, and eigenfunctions of the Laplacian with either Neumann or Dirichlet boundary conditions. We will present some of this data and discuss some ideas for defining normal derivatives on the boundary of the carpet.

Allende 84081 Baronissi (SA), Italy [email protected] Abstract While there has been growing interest for noncommutative spaces in recent times, most examples have been based on the simplest noncommutative algebra: [xi; xj] = iθij. Here we present new classes of (non-formal) deformed products k associated to linear Lie algebras of the kind [xi; xj] = icijxk. For all possible three- dimensional cases, we define a new star product and discuss its properties. To complete the analysis of these novel noncommutative spaces, we introduce noncom- pact spectral triples, and the concept of star triple, a specialization of the spectral triple to deformations of the algebra of functions on a noncompact manifold. We examine the generalization to the noncompact case of Connes' conditions for non- commutative spin geometries, and, in the framework of the new star products, we exhibit some candidates for a Dirac operator. On the technical level, properties of 2n the Moyal multiplier algebra M(Rθ ) are elucidated. 1 Introduction Over five years ago, Connes gave the first axiomatics for first-quantized fermion fields on (compact) noncommutative varieties, the so-called spectral triples [1].

  • Moufang Loops and Alternative Algebras
    PROCEEDINGS OF THE AMERICAN MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY Volume 132, Number 2, Pages 313{316 S 0002-9939(03)07260-5 Article electronically published on August 28, 2003 MOUFANG LOOPS AND ALTERNATIVE ALGEBRAS IVAN P. SHESTAKOV (Communicated by Lance W. Small) Abstract. Let O be the algebra O of classical real octonions or the (split) algebra of octonions over the finite field GF (p2);p>2. Then the quotient loop O∗=Z ∗ of the Moufang loop O∗ of all invertible elements of the algebra O modulo its center Z∗ is not embedded into a loop of invertible elements of any alternative algebra. It is well known that for an alternative algebra A with the unit 1 the set U(A) of all invertible elements of A forms a Moufang loop with respect to multiplication [3]. But, as far as the author knows, the following question remains open (see, for example, [1]). Question 1. Is it true that any Moufang loop can be imbedded into a loop of type U(A) for a suitable unital alternative algebra A? A positive answer to this question was announced in [5]. Here we show that, in fact, the answer to this question is negative: the Moufang loop U(O)=R∗ for the algebra O of classical octonions over the real field R andthesimilarloopforthe algebra of octonions over the finite field GF (p2);p>2; are not imbeddable into the loops of type U(A). Below O denotes an algebra of octonions (or Cayley{Dickson algebra) over a field F of characteristic =2,6 O∗ = U(O) is the Moufang loop of all the invertible elements of O, L = O∗=F ∗.

  • Phase Space Quantum Mechanics Is Such a Natural Formulation of Quantum Theory
    Phase space quantum mechanics Maciej B laszak, Ziemowit Doma´nski Faculty of Physics, Adam Mickiewicz University, Umultowska 85, 61-614 Pozna´n, Poland Abstract The paper develope the alternative formulation of quantum mechanics known as the phase space quantum mechanics or deformation quantization. It is shown that the quantization naturally arises as an appropriate deformation of the classical Hamiltonian mechanics. More precisely, the deformation of the point-wise prod- uct of observables to an appropriate noncommutative ⋆-product and the deformation of the Poisson bracket to an appropriate Lie bracket is the key element in introducing the quantization of classical Hamiltonian systems. The formalism of the phase space quantum mechanics is presented in a very systematic way for the case of any smooth Hamiltonian function and for a very wide class of deformations. The considered class of deformations and the corresponding ⋆-products contains as a special cases all deformations which can be found in the literature devoted to the subject of the phase space quantum mechanics. Fundamental properties of ⋆-products of observables, associated with the considered deformations are presented as well. Moreover, a space of states containing all admissible states is introduced, where the admissible states are appropriate pseudo-probability distributions defined on the phase space. It is proved that the space of states is endowed with a structure of a Hilbert algebra with respect to the ⋆-multiplication. The most important result of the paper shows that developed formalism is more fundamental then the axiomatic ordinary quantum mechanics which appears in the presented approach as the intrinsic element of the general formalism.

  • MOUFANG LOOPS THAT SHARE ASSOCIATOR and THREE QUARTERS of THEIR MULTIPLICATION TABLES 1. Introduction Moufang Loops, I.E., Loops
    MOUFANG LOOPS THAT SHARE ASSOCIATOR AND THREE QUARTERS OF THEIR MULTIPLICATION TABLES ALES· DRAPAL¶ AND PETR VOJTECHOVSK· Y¶ Abstract. Two constructions due to Dr¶apalproduce a group by modifying exactly one quarter of the Cayley table of another group. We present these constructions in a compact way, and generalize them to Moufang loops, using loop extensions. Both constructions preserve associators, the associator subloop, and the nucleus. We con- jecture that two Moufang 2-loops of ¯nite order n with equivalent associator can be connected by a series of constructions similar to ours, and o®er empirical evidence that this is so for n = 16, 24, 32; the only interesting cases with n · 32. We further investigate the way the constructions a®ect code loops and loops of type M(G; 2). The paper closes with several conjectures and research questions concerning the distance of Moufang loops, classi¯cation of small Moufang loops, and generalizations of the two constructions. MSC2000: Primary: 20N05. Secondary: 20D60, 05B15. 1. Introduction Moufang loops, i.e., loops satisfying the Moufang identity ((xy)x)z = x(y(xz)), are surely the most extensively studied loops. Despite this fact, the classi¯cation of Moufang loops is ¯nished only for orders less than 64, and several ingenious constructions are needed to obtain all these loops. The purpose of this paper is to initiate a new approach to ¯nite Moufang 2-loops. Namely, we intend to decide whether all Moufang 2-loops of given order with equivalent associator can be obtained from just one of them, using only group-theoretical constructions.

  • A Guide to Self-Distributive Quasigroups, Or Latin Quandles
    A GUIDE TO SELF-DISTRIBUTIVE QUASIGROUPS, OR LATIN QUANDLES DAVID STANOVSKY´ Abstract. We present an overview of the theory of self-distributive quasigroups, both in the two- sided and one-sided cases, and relate the older results to the modern theory of quandles, to which self-distributive quasigroups are a special case. Most attention is paid to the representation results (loop isotopy, linear representation, homogeneous representation), as the main tool to investigate self-distributive quasigroups. 1. Introduction 1.1. The origins of self-distributivity. Self-distributivity is such a natural concept: given a binary operation on a set A, fix one parameter, say the left one, and consider the mappings ∗ La(x) = a x, called left translations. If all such mappings are endomorphisms of the algebraic structure (A,∗ ), the operation is called left self-distributive (the prefix self- is usually omitted). Equationally,∗ the property says a (x y) = (a x) (a y) ∗ ∗ ∗ ∗ ∗ for every a, x, y A, and we see that distributes over itself. Self-distributivity∈ was pinpointed already∗ in the late 19th century works of logicians Peirce and Schr¨oder [69, 76], and ever since, it keeps appearing in a natural way throughout mathematics, perhaps most notably in low dimensional topology (knot and braid invariants) [12, 15, 63], in the theory of symmetric spaces [57] and in set theory (Laver’s groupoids of elementary embeddings) [15]. Recently, Moskovich expressed an interesting statement on his blog [60] that while associativity caters to the classical world of space and time, distributivity is, perhaps, the setting for the emerging world of information.

  • Weyl Quantization and Wigner Distributions on Phase Space
    faculteit Wiskunde en Natuurwetenschappen Weyl quantization and Wigner distributions on phase space Bachelor thesis in Physics and Mathematics June 2014 Student: R.S. Wezeman Supervisor in Physics: Prof. dr. D. Boer Supervisor in Mathematics: Prof. dr H. Waalkens Abstract This thesis describes quantum mechanics in the phase space formulation. We introduce quantization and in particular the Weyl quantization. We study a general class of phase space distribution functions on phase space. The Wigner distribution function is one such distribution function. The Wigner distribution function in general attains negative values and thus can not be interpreted as a real probability density, as opposed to for example the Husimi distribution function. The Husimi distribution however does not yield the correct marginal distribution functions known from quantum mechanics. Properties of the Wigner and Husimi distribution function are studied to more extent. We calculate the Wigner and Husimi distribution function for the energy eigenstates of a particle trapped in a box. We then look at the semi classical limit for this example. The time evolution of Wigner functions are studied by making use of the Moyal bracket. The Moyal bracket and the Poisson bracket are compared in the classical limit. The phase space formulation of quantum mechanics has as advantage that classical concepts can be studied and compared to quantum mechanics. For certain quantum mechanical systems the time evolution of Wigner distribution functions becomes equivalent to the classical time evolution stated in the exact Egerov theorem. Another advantage of using Wigner functions is when one is interested in systems involving mixed states. A disadvantage of the phase space formulation is that for most problems it quickly loses its simplicity and becomes hard to calculate.

We review the matrix bases for a family of noncommutative ? products based on a Weyl map. These products include the Moyal product, as well as the Wick{Voros products and other translation invariant ones. We also review the derivation of Lie algebra type star products, with adapted matrix bases. We discuss the uses of these matrix bases for field theory, fuzzy spaces and emergent gravity. Key words: noncommutative geometry; star products; matrix models 2010 Mathematics Subject Classification: 58Bxx; 40C05; 46L65 1 Introduction Star products were originally introduced [34, 62] in the context of point particle quantization, they were generalized in [9, 10] to comprise general cases, the physical motivations behind this was the quantization of phase space. Later star products became a tool to describe possible noncommutative geometries of spacetime itself (for a review see [4]). In this sense they have become a tool for the study of field theories on noncommutative spaces [77]. In this short review we want to concentrate on one particular aspect of the star product, the fact that any action involving fields which are multiplied with a star product can be seen as a matrix model.
