Triple Product Formula and the Subconvexity Bound of Triple Product L-Function in Level Aspect
TRIPLE PRODUCT FORMULA AND THE SUBCONVEXITY BOUND OF TRIPLE PRODUCT L-FUNCTION IN LEVEL ASPECT YUEKE HU Abstract. In this paper we derived a nice general formula for the local integrals of triple product formula whenever one of the representations has sufficiently higher level than the other two. As an application we generalized Venkatesh and Woodbury’s work on the subconvexity bound of triple product L-function in level aspect, allowing joint ramifications, higher ramifications, general unitary central characters and general special values of local epsilon factors. 1. introduction 1.1.

Vectors, Matrices and Coordinate Transformations
S. Widnall 16.07 Dynamics Fall 2009 Lecture notes based on J. Peraire Version 2.0 Lecture L3 - Vectors, Matrices and Coordinate Transformations By using vectors and defining appropriate operations between them, physical laws can often be written in a simple form. Since we will making extensive use of vectors in Dynamics, we will summarize some of their important properties. Vectors For our purposes we will think of a vector as a mathematical representation of a physical entity which has both magnitude and direction in a 3D space. Examples of physical vectors are forces, moments, and velocities. Geometrically, a vector can be represented as arrows. The length of the arrow represents its magnitude. Unless indicated otherwise, we shall assume that parallel translation does not change a vector, and we shall call the vectors satisfying this property, free vectors. Thus, two vectors are equal if and only if they are parallel, point in the same direction, and have equal length. Vectors are usually typed in boldface and scalar quantities appear in lightface italic type, e.g. the vector quantity A has magnitude, or modulus, A = |A|. In handwritten text, vectors are often expressed using the −→ arrow, or underbar notation, e.g. A , A. Vector Algebra Here, we introduce a few useful operations which are defined for free vectors. Multiplication by a scalar If we multiply a vector A by a scalar α, the result is a vector B = αA, which has magnitude B = |α|A. The vector B, is parallel to A and points in the same direction if α > 0. -
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 ∗. -
Malcev Algebras
MALCEVALGEBRAS BY ARTHUR A. SAGLEO) 1. Introduction. This paper is an investigation of a class of nonassociative algebras which generalizes the class of Lie algebras. These algebras satisfy certain identities that were suggested to Malcev [7] when he used the com- mutator of two elements as a new multiplicative operation for an alternative algebra. As a means of establishing some notation for the present paper, a brief sketch of this development will be given here. If ^4 is any algebra (associative or not) over a field P, the original product of two elements will be denoted by juxtaposition, xy, and the following nota- tion will be adopted for elements x, y, z of A : (1.1) Commutator, xoy = (x, y) = xy — yx; (1.2) Associator, (x, y, z) = (xy)z — x(yz) ; (1.3) Jacobian, J(x, y, z) = (xy)z + (yz)x + (zx)y. An alternative algebra A is a nonassociative algebra such that for any elements xi, x2, x3 oí A, the associator (¡Ci,x2, x3) "alternates" ; that is, (xi, x2, xs) = t(xiv xh, xh) for any permutation i%,i2, i%of 1, 2, 3 where « is 1 in case the permutation is even, — 1 in case the permutation is odd. If we introduce a new product into an alternative algebra A by means of a commutator x o y, we obtain for any x, y, z of A J(x, y, z)o = (x o y) o z + (y o z) o x + (z o y) o x = 6(x, y, z). The new algebra thus obtained will be denoted by A(~K Using the preceding identity with the known identities of an alternative algebra [2] and the fact that the Jacobian is a skew-symmetric function in /l(-), we see that /1(_) satis- fies the identities (1.4) ïoï = 0, (1.5) (x o y) o (x o z) = ((x o y) o z) o x + ((y o z) o x) o x + ((z o x) o x) o y Presented to the Society, August 31, 1960; received by the editors March 14, 1961. -
Gauging the Octonion Algebra
UM-P-92/60_» Gauging the octonion algebra A.K. Waldron and G.C. Joshi Research Centre for High Energy Physics, University of Melbourne, Parkville, Victoria 8052, Australia By considering representation theory for non-associative algebras we construct the fundamental and adjoint representations of the octonion algebra. We then show how these representations by associative matrices allow a consistent octonionic gauge theory to be realized. We find that non-associativity implies the existence of new terms in the transformation laws of fields and the kinetic term of an octonionic Lagrangian. PACS numbers: 11.30.Ly, 12.10.Dm, 12.40.-y. Typeset Using REVTEX 1 L INTRODUCTION The aim of this work is to genuinely gauge the octonion algebra as opposed to relating properties of this algebra back to the well known theory of Lie Groups and fibre bundles. Typically most attempts to utilise the octonion symmetry in physics have revolved around considerations of the automorphism group G2 of the octonions and Jordan matrix representations of the octonions [1]. Our approach is more simple since we provide a spinorial approach to the octonion symmetry. Previous to this work there were already several indications that this should be possible. To begin with the statement of the gauge principle itself uno theory shall depend on the labelling of the internal symmetry space coordinates" seems to be independent of the exact nature of the gauge algebra and so should apply equally to non-associative algebras. The octonion algebra is an alternative algebra (the associator {x-1,y,i} = 0 always) X -1 so that the transformation law for a gauge field TM —• T^, = UY^U~ — ^(c^C/)(/ is well defined for octonionic transformations U. -
Matrices and Tensors
APPENDIX MATRICES AND TENSORS A.1. INTRODUCTION AND RATIONALE The purpose of this appendix is to present the notation and most of the mathematical tech- niques that are used in the body of the text. The audience is assumed to have been through sev- eral years of college-level mathematics, which included the differential and integral calculus, differential equations, functions of several variables, partial derivatives, and an introduction to linear algebra. Matrices are reviewed briefly, and determinants, vectors, and tensors of order two are described. The application of this linear algebra to material that appears in under- graduate engineering courses on mechanics is illustrated by discussions of concepts like the area and mass moments of inertia, Mohr’s circles, and the vector cross and triple scalar prod- ucts. The notation, as far as possible, will be a matrix notation that is easily entered into exist- ing symbolic computational programs like Maple, Mathematica, Matlab, and Mathcad. The desire to represent the components of three-dimensional fourth-order tensors that appear in anisotropic elasticity as the components of six-dimensional second-order tensors and thus rep- resent these components in matrices of tensor components in six dimensions leads to the non- traditional part of this appendix. This is also one of the nontraditional aspects in the text of the book, but a minor one. This is described in §A.11, along with the rationale for this approach. A.2.

O/Zp OCTONION ALGEBRA and ITS MATRIX REPRESENTATIONS

Keywords and phrases: Quaternion algebra, Octonion algebra, Cayley-Dickson process, Matrix representation. Abstract. Since O is a non-associative algebra over R, this real division algebra can not be algebraically isomorphic to any matrix algebras over the real number eld R. In this study using H with Cayley-Dickson process we obtain octonion algebra. Firstly, We investigate octonion algebra over Zp. Then, we use the left and right matrix representations of H to construct repre- sentation for octonion algebra. Furthermore, we get the matrix representations of O Z with the = p help of Cayley-Dickson process. 1 Introduction Let us summarize the notations needed to understand octonionic algebra. There are only four normed division algebras R, C, H and O [2], [6]. The octonion algebra is a non-commutative, non-associative but alternative algebra which discovered in 1843 by John T. Graves. Octonions have many applications in quantum logic, special relativity, supersymmetry, etc. Due to the non-associativity, representing octonions by matrices seems impossible. Nevertheless, one can overcome these problems by introducing left (or right) octonionic operators and xing the direc- tion of action. In this study we investigate matrix representations of octonion division algebra O Z . Now, lets = p start with the quaternion algebra H to construct the octonion algebra O. It is well known that any octonion a can be written by the Cayley-Dickson process as follows [7]. -
Universal Enveloping Algebras for Simple Malcev Algebras
Pr´e-Publica¸c˜oes do Departamento de Matem´atica Universidade de Coimbra Preprint Number 10–32 UNIVERSAL ENVELOPING ALGEBRAS FOR SIMPLE MALCEV ALGEBRAS ELISABETE BARREIRO AND SARA MADARIAGA Abstract: It is our goal to present an universal enveloping algebra for the simple (non-Lie) 7-dimensional Malcev algebra M(α, β, γ) in order to obtain an universal enveloping algebra for simple Malcev algebras and to study its properties. Keywords: Simple Malcev algebra; universal enveloping algebra. Introduction The universal enveloping algebra of an algebra is a basic tool in the study of its representation theory. Given a algebra A, let us denote by A− the algebra obtained from A by replacing the product xy by the commutator [x, y]= xy yx, for elements x, y A. It is known that if A is an associative − ∈ algebra one obtains a Lie algebra A− and, conversely, the Poincar´e-Birkhoff- Witt Theorem establishes that any Lie algebra is isomorphic to a subalgebra of A− for some associative algebra A ([1], [2]). If we start with an alternative algebra A (alternative means that x(xy)= 2 2 x y and (yx)x = yx , for x, y A) then A− is a Malcev algebra. Since any associative algebra is in particular∈ an alternative algebra, then the Mal- cev algebra A− is a natural generalization of the Lie algebra A−. In [4], P´erez-Izquierdo and Shestakov presented an enveloping algebra of Malcev algebras (constructed in a more general way), generalizing the classical no- tion of universal enveloping algebra for Lie algebras. They proved that for every Malcev algebra M there exist an algebra U(M) and an injective Malcev algebra homomorphism ι : M U(M)− such that the image of M lies into the alternative nucleus of U(M−→), being U(M) a universal object with respect to such homomorphism. -
Jordan Triple Systems with Completely Reducible Derivation Or Structure Algebras
Pacific Journal of Mathematics JORDAN TRIPLE SYSTEMS WITH COMPLETELY REDUCIBLE DERIVATION OR STRUCTURE ALGEBRAS E. NEHER Vol. 113, No. 1 March 1984 PACIFIC JOURNAL OF MATHEMATICS Vol. 113, No. 1,1984 JORDAN TRIPLE SYSTEMS WITH COMPLETELY REDUCIBLE DERIVATION OR STRUCTURE ALGEBRAS ERHARD NEHER We prove that a finite-dimensional Jordan triple system over a field k of characteristic zero has a completely reducible structure algebra iff it is a direct sum of a trivial and a semisimple ideal. This theorem depends on a classification of Jordan triple systems with completely reducible derivation algebra in the case where k is algebraically closed. As another application we characterize real Jordan triple systems with compact automorphism group. The main topic of this paper is finite-dimensional Jordan triple systems over a field of characteristic zero which have a completely reducible derivation algebra. The history of the subject begins with [7] where G. Hochschild proved, among other results, that for an associative algebra & the deriva- tion algebra is semisimple iff & itself is semisimple. Later on R. D. Schafer considered in [18] the case of a Jordan algebra £. His result was that Der f is semisimple if and only if $ is semisimple with each simple component of dimension not equal to 3 over its center. This theorem was extended by K.-H. Helwig, who proved in [6]: Let f be a Jordan algebra which is finite-dimensional over a field of characteristic zero. Then the following are equivlent: (1) Der % is completely reducible and every derivation of % has trace zero, (2) £ is semisimple, (3) the bilinear form on Der f> given by (Dl9 D2) -> trace(Z>!Z>2) is non-degenerate and every derivation of % is inner. -
Fundamental Theorems in Mathematics
SOME FUNDAMENTAL THEOREMS IN MATHEMATICS OLIVER KNILL Abstract. An expository hitchhikers guide to some theorems in mathematics. Criteria for the current list of 243 theorems are whether the result can be formulated elegantly, whether it is beautiful or useful and whether it could serve as a guide [6] without leading to panic. The order is not a ranking but ordered along a time-line when things were writ- ten down. Since [556] stated “a mathematical theorem only becomes beautiful if presented as a crown jewel within a context" we try sometimes to give some context. Of course, any such list of theorems is a matter of personal preferences, taste and limitations. The num- ber of theorems is arbitrary, the initial obvious goal was 42 but that number got eventually surpassed as it is hard to stop, once started. As a compensation, there are 42 “tweetable" theorems with included proofs. More comments on the choice of the theorems is included in an epilogue. For literature on general mathematics, see [193, 189, 29, 235, 254, 619, 412, 138], for history [217, 625, 376, 73, 46, 208, 379, 365, 690, 113, 618, 79, 259, 341], for popular, beautiful or elegant things [12, 529, 201, 182, 17, 672, 673, 44, 204, 190, 245, 446, 616, 303, 201, 2, 127, 146, 128, 502, 261, 172].
