Ternary Hom-Nambu-Lie algebras induced by Hom-Lie algebras

The need to consider n -ary algebraic structures, generalizing Lie and Poisson algebras, has become increasingly important in physics, and it should therefore be of interest to study the mathematical concepts related to n -ary algebras. The purpose of this paper is to investigate ternary multiplications (as deformations of n -Lie structures) constructed from the binary multiplication of a Hom–Lie algebra, a linear twisting map, and a trace function satisfying certain compatibility conditions. We show that the relation between the kernels of the twisting maps and the trace function plays an important role in this context and provide examples of Hom–Nambu–Lie algebras obtained using this construction.

Fuzzy Riemann surfaces

We introduce C-Algebras (quantum analogues of compact Riemann surfaces), defined by polynomial relations in non-commutative variables and containing a real parameter that, when taken to zero, provides a classical non-linear, Poisson-bracket, obtainable from a single polynomial C(onstraint) function. For a continuous class of quartic constraints, we explicitly work out finite dimensional representations of the corresponding C-Algebras.

Structure and Cohomology of 3-Lie Algebras Induced by Lie Algebras

The aim of this paper is to compare the structure and the cohomology spaces of Lie algebras and induced \(3\)-Lie algebras.

Construction of n-Lie algebras and n-ary Hom-Nambu-Lie algebras

As n-ary operations, generalizing Lie and Poisson algebras, arise in many different physical contexts, it is interesting to study general ways of constructing explicit realizations of such multilinear structures. Generically, they describe the dynamics of a physical system, and there is a need of understanding their quantization. Hom-Nambu-Lie algebras provide a framework that might be an appropriate setting in which n-Lie algebras (n-ary Nambu-Lie algebras) can be deformed, and their quantization studied. We present a procedure to construct (n + 1)-ary Hom-Nambu-Lie algebras from n-ary Hom-Nambu-Lie algebras equipped with a generalized trace function. It turns out that the implications of the compatibility conditions, that are necessary for this construction, can be understood in terms of the kernel of the trace function and the range of the twisting maps. Furthermore, we investigate the possibility of defining (n + k)-Lie algebras from n-Lie algebras and a k-form satisfying certain conditions.

The world as quantized minimal surfaces

It is pointed out that the equations less thanbrgreater than less thanbrgreater thanSigma(d)(i=1)[X-i, [X-i, X-j]] = 0 less thanbrgreater than less thanbrgreater than(and its super-symmetrizations, playing a central role in M-theory matrix models) describe non-commutative minimal surfaces - and can be solved as such.

Representation theory of C-algebras for a higher-order class of spheres and tori

We construct C -algebras for a class of surfaces that are inverse images of certain polynomials of arbitrary degree. By using the directed graph associated with a matrix, the representation theory can be understood in terms of “loop” and “string” representations, which are closely related to the dynamics of an iterated map in the plane. As a particular class of algebras, we introduce the “Henon algebras,” for which the dynamical map is a generalized Henon map, and give an example where irreducible representations of all dimensions exist.

Curvature and geometric modules of noncommutative spheres and tori

When considered as submanifolds of Euclidean space, the Riemannian geometry of the round sphere and the Clifford torus may be formulated in terms of Poisson algebraic expressions involving the embedding coordinates, and a central object is the projection operator, projecting tangent vectors in the ambient space onto the tangent space of the submanifold. In this note, we point out that there exist noncommutative analogues of these projection operators, which implies a very natural definition of noncommutative tangent spaces as particular projective modules. These modules carry an induced connection from Euclidean space, and we compute its scalar curvature.

Goldfish Geodesics and Hamiltonian Reduction of Matrix Dynamics

We describe the Hamiltonian reduction of a time-dependent real-symmetric N×N matrix system to free vector dynamics, and also provide a geodesic interpretation of Ruijsenaars–Schneider systems. The simplest of the latter, the goldfish equation, is found to represent a flat-space geodesic in curvilinear coordinates.

Eigenvalue-Dynamics off the Calogero-Moser System

By finding N(N− 1)/2 suitable conserved quantities, free motions of real symmetric N×N matrices X(t), with arbitrary initial conditions, are reduced to nonlinear equations involving only the eigenvalues of X – in contrast to the rational Calogero-Moser system, for which [X(0),Xd(0)] has to be purely imaginary, of rank one.

Noncommutative Minimal Surfaces

We define noncommutative minimal surfaces in the Weyl algebra, and give a method to construct them by generalizing the well-known Weierstrass representation.
