Periodic Polynomial Splines

2018

In this chapter, the spaces of periodic polynomial splines and the Spline Harmonic Analysis (SHA) in these spaces are briefly outlined. The stuff of this chapter is used for the design of periodic discrete-time splines and discrete-time-spline-based wavelets and wavelet packets. For a detailed description of the subject we refer to (Averbuch, Neittaanmaki and Zheludev, Spline and Spline Wavelet Methods with Applications to Signal and Image Processing, Springer, Berlin, 2014) [1]. Periodic polynomial splines provide an example of mixed discrete-continuous circular convolution.

Quantum Groups, Star Products and Cyclic Cohomology

1993

After some historical remarks, we start with a rapid overview of the star-product theory (deformation of algebras of functions on phase space) and its applications to deformation-quantization. We then concentrate on Poisson-Lie groups and their “quantization”, give a star-product realization of quantum groups and discuss uniqueness and the rigidity as bialgebra of a universal model for the quantum SL(2) groups. In the last part we develop the notion of closed star-product (for which a trace can be defined on the algebra), show that it is classified by cyclic cohomology, permits to define a character and that there always exists one; finally we show that the pseudodifferential calculus on a …

Algebraic Results on Quantum Automata

2004

We use tools from the algebraic theory of automata to investigate the class of languages recognized by two models of Quantum Finite Automata (QFA): Brodsky and Pippenger’s end-decisive model, and a new QFA model whose definition is motivated by implementations of quantum computers using nucleo-magnetic resonance (NMR). In particular, we are interested in the new model since nucleo-magnetic resonance was used to construct the most powerful physical quantum machine to date. We give a complete characterization of the languages recognized by the new model and by Boolean combinations of the Brodsky-Pippenger model. Our results show a striking similarity in the class of languages recognized by th…

The new results on lattice deformation of current algebra

2008

The topic “Quantum Integrable Models” was reviewed in the literature and presented to the conferences and schools many times. Only the reports of our own have been done on quite a few occasions (see, e.g., [1], [2]). So here we shall try to present a fresh approach to the description of the ingredients of construction of integrable models. It has gradually evolved in the process of our joint work. Whereas our goal was the Sugawara construction for the lattice affine algebra (known now as the St.Petersburg algebra), (see, e.g., [1]), some technical developments happen to be new and useful for the already developed subjects. Here we shall underline this development.

Generalised Deformations, Koszul Resolutions, Moyal Products

1998

We generalise Gerstenhaber's theory of deformations, by dropping the assumption that the deformation parameter should commute with the elements of the original algebra. We give the associated cohomology and construct a Koszul resolution for the polynomial algebra [Formula: see text] in the "homogeneous" case. We then develop examples in the case of [Formula: see text] and find some Moyal-like products of a new type. Finally, we show that, for any field K, matrix algebras with coefficients in K and finite degree extensions of K are rigid, as in the commutative case.

Double point curves for corank 2 map germs from C2 to C3

2012

Abstract We characterize finite determinacy of map germs f : ( C 2 , 0 ) → ( C 3 , 0 ) in terms of the Milnor number μ ( D ( f ) ) of the double point curve D ( f ) in ( C 2 , 0 ) and we provide an explicit description of the double point scheme in terms of elementary symmetric functions. Also we prove that the Whitney equisingularity of 1-parameter families of map germs f t : ( C 2 , 0 ) → ( C 3 , 0 ) is equivalent to the constancy of both μ ( D ( f t ) ) and μ ( f t ( C 2 ) ∩ H ) with respect to t , where H ⊂ C 3 is a generic plane.

Invertibility in tensor products of Q-algebras

Vectors, Tensors, Manifolds and Special Relativity

2015

Assuming that the reader is familiar with the notion of vectors, within a few pages, with a few examples, the reader will get to be familiar with the generic picture of tensors. With the specific notions given in this chapter, the reader will be able to understand more advanced tensor courses with no further effort. The transition between tensor algebra and tensor calculus is done naturally with a very familiar example. The notion of manifold and a few basic key aspects on Special Relativity are also presented.

A Non-antisymmetric Tensor Contraction Engine for the Automated Implementation of Spin-Adapted Coupled Cluster Approaches

2015

We present a symbolic manipulation algorithm for the efficient automated implementation of rigorously spin-free coupled cluster (CC) theories based on a unitary group parametrization. Due to the lack of antisymmetry of the unitary group generators under index permutations, all quantities involved in the equations are expressed in terms of non-antisymmetric tensors. Given two tensors, all possible contractions are first generated by applying Wick's theorem. Each term is then put down in the form of a non-antisymmetric Goldstone diagram by assigning its contraction topology. The subsequent simplification of the equations by summing up equivalent terms and their factorization by identifying co…
