  • Social Choice Theory Christian List
    1 Social Choice Theory Christian List Social choice theory is the study of collective decision procedures. It is not a single theory, but a cluster of models and results concerning the aggregation of individual inputs (e.g., votes, preferences, judgments, welfare) into collective outputs (e.g., collective decisions, preferences, judgments, welfare). Central questions are: How can a group of individuals choose a winning outcome (e.g., policy, electoral candidate) from a given set of options? What are the properties of different voting systems? When is a voting system democratic? How can a collective (e.g., electorate, legislature, collegial court, expert panel, or committee) arrive at coherent collective preferences or judgments on some issues, on the basis of its members’ individual preferences or judgments? How can we rank different social alternatives in an order of social welfare? Social choice theorists study these questions not just by looking at examples, but by developing general models and proving theorems. Pioneered in the 18th century by Nicolas de Condorcet and Jean-Charles de Borda and in the 19th century by Charles Dodgson (also known as Lewis Carroll), social choice theory took off in the 20th century with the works of Kenneth Arrow, Amartya Sen, and Duncan Black. Its influence extends across economics, political science, philosophy, mathematics, and recently computer science and biology. Apart from contributing to our understanding of collective decision procedures, social choice theory has applications in the areas of institutional design, welfare economics, and social epistemology. 1. History of social choice theory 1.1 Condorcet The two scholars most often associated with the development of social choice theory are the Frenchman Nicolas de Condorcet (1743-1794) and the American Kenneth Arrow (born 1921).

The electromagnetic field is un- changed by gauge transformations of the potential. The electromagnestism is a gauge theory with U(1) as gauge group. C. N. Yang and R. Mills extended in 1954 the concept of gauge theory for abelian groups to non-abelian groups to provide an explanation for strong interactions. The idea of Yang-Mills was criticized by Pauli, as the quanta of the Yang-Mills field must be massless in order to maintain gauge invariance. The idea was set aside until 1960, when the concept of particles acquiring mass through symmetry breaking in massless theories was put forward. This prompted a significant restart of Yang-Mills theory studies that proved succesful in the formula- tion of both electroweak unification and quantum electrodynamics (QCD). The Standard Model combines the strong interaction with the unified electroweak interaction through the symmetry group SU(3) ⊗ SU(2) ⊗ U(1). Modern gauge theory includes lattice gauge theory, supersymme- try, magnetic monopoles, supergravity, instantons, etc. Concerning the mathematics, the field of Yang-Mills theories was included in the Clay Mathematics Institute's list of \Millenium Prize Problems". This prize-problem focuses, especially, on a proof of the conjecture that the lowest excitations of a pure four-dimensional Yang-Mills theory (i.e.

We construct a series of generic elements of L. AMS Subject Classification: 17B01, 17B40 Key Words: generic element, almost primitive element 1. Introduction In the articles [1], [2], [4], [5] generic elements of free groups and of free Lie algebras were studied. In particular, series of generic elements of free groups were constructed. In [1] it was shown that for a variety with solvable word problem there is an algorithm to recognize generic elements. Let U be a variety of Lie algebras defined by the set of laws, L the free color Lie superalgebra and D(L) be the verbal ideal. An element f of L is said to be D−generic if f ∈ D(L) but f∈ / D(H) for every proper subalgebra H of L. In general, generic does not imply almost primitive element, see [3]. At the same time in [3] it was proved that if U is a nontrivial variety defined by the set of laws D and w ∈ D(F ) and w is almost primitive element of F then w is D−generic. In this article we consider generic elements in free color Lie superalgebras. Received: February 6, 2006 c 2006, Academic Publications Ltd. 570 D. Kahyalar 2.

Moreover, we classify invariant bilinear forms on a given simple Hom- Lie superalgebra. Then we study the Killing forms on a Hom-Lie algebra which are examples of the invariant bilinear forms. Making use of the Killing forms, we find conditions for a Hom-Lie superalgebra to be classical. Furthermore, we check the conditions in which the Killing form of a Hom-Lie superalgebra is non-degenerate. 1 Introduction The investigations of various quantum deformations or q-deformations of Lie algebras began a period of rapid expansion in 1980’s stimulated by introduction of quantum groups motivated by applications to the quantum Yang-Baxter equation, quantum inverse scattering methods and constructions of the quantum deformations of universal arXiv:2010.01778v2 [math.RA] 6 Oct 2020 enveloping algebras of semi-simple Lie algebras.

We study a particular class of infinite-dimensional representations of osp(1j2n). These representations Ln(p) are characterized by a positive integer p, and are the lowest com- ponent in the p-fold tensor product of the metaplectic representation of osp(1j2n). We con- struct a new polynomial basis for Ln(p) arising from the embedding osp(1j2np) ⊃ osp(1j2n). The basis vectors of Ln(p) are labelled by semi-standard Young tableaux, and are expressed as Clifford algebra valued polynomials with integer coefficients in np variables. Using com- binatorial properties of these tableau vectors it is deduced that they form indeed a basis. The computation of matrix elements of a set of generators of osp(1j2n) on these basis vectors requires further combinatorics, such as the action of a Young subgroup on the horizontal strips of the tableau.
