Gradient Einstein-Type Structures immersed into a Riemannian Warped Product

In this paper, we study gradient Einstein-type structure immersed into a Riemannian warped product manifold. We obtain some triviality results for the potential function and smooth map $u$. We investigate conditions for a gradient Einstein-type structure to be minimal, totally umbilical, or totally geodesic immersed into a warped product $I\times_f M^n$. Furthermore, we characterize rotational hypersurface into $\mathbb{R}\times_f\mathbb{R}^n$ has a gradient Einstein-type structure.

Invariant solutions of gradient $k$-Yamabe solitons

The purpose of this paper is to study gradient $k$-Yamabe solitons conformal to pseudo-Euclidean space. We characterize all such solitons invariant under the action of an $(n-1)$-dimensional translation group. For rotational invariant solutions, we provide the classification of solitons with null curvatures. As an application, we construct infinitely many explicit examples of geodesically complete steady gradient $k$-Yamabe solitons conformal to the Lorentzian space.

Immersion of gradient almost Yamabe solitons into warped product manifolds

The purpose of this article is to study the geometry of gradient almost Yamabe solitons immersed into warped product manifolds $I\times_{f}M^{n}$ whose potential is given by the height function from the immersion. First, we present some geometric rigidity on compact solitons due to a curvature condition on the warped product manifold. In the sequel, we investigate conditions for the existence of totally geodesic, totally umbilical and minimal solitons. Furthermore, in the scope of constant angle immersions, a classification of rotational gradient almost Yamabe soliton immersed into $\mathbb{R}\times_{f}\mathbb{R}^{n}$ is also made.

Partial (Co)Actions of Multiplier Hopf Algebras: Morita and Galois Theories

In this work we deal with partial (co)action of multiplier Hopf algebras on not necessarily unital algebras. Our main goal is to construct a Morita context relating the coinvariant algebra $R^{\underline{coA}}$ with a certain subalgebra of the smash product $R\#\widehat{A}$. Besides this we present the notion of partial Galois coaction, which is closely related to this Morita context.

Hopf Categories

We introduce Hopf categories enriched over braided monoidal categories. The notion is linked to several recently developed notions in Hopf algebra theory, such as Hopf group (co)algebras, weak Hopf algebras and duoidal categories. We generalize the fundamental theorem for Hopf modules and some of its applications to Hopf categories.

Noncommutative geometry of angular momentum space U(su(2))

We study the standard angular momentum algebra $[x_i,x_j]=iλε_{ijk}x_k$ as a noncommutative manifold $R^3_λ$. We show that there is a natural 4D differential calculus and obtain its cohomology and Hodge * operator. We solve the spin 0 wave equation and some aspects of the Maxwell or electromagnetic theory including solutions for a uniform electric current density, and we find a natural Dirac operator. We embed $R^3_λ$ inside a 4D noncommutative spacetime which is the limit $q\to 1$ of q-Minkowski space and show that $R^3_λ$ has a natural quantum isometry group given by the quantum double $D(U(su(2)))$ as a singular limit of the $q$-Lorentz group. We view $\R^3_λ$ as a collection of all fuzzy spheres taken together. We also analyse the semiclassical limit via minimum uncertainty states $|j,θ,ϕ>$ approximating classical positions in polar coordinates.

A Novel Spin-Statistics Theorem in (2 + 1)d Chern-Simons Gravity

It has been known for some time that topological geons in quantum gravity may lead to a complete violation of the canonical spin-statistics relation : there may exist no connection between spin and statistics for a pair of geons. We present an algebraic description of quantum gravity in (2 + 1)d based on the first order formalism of general relativity and show that, although the usual spin-statistics theorem is not valid, statistics is completely determined by spin. Hence, a new spin-statistics theorem can be formulated.

Quantum Topology Change in (2 + 1)d

The topology of orientable (2 + 1)d spacetimes can be captured by certain lumps of non-trivial topology called topological geons. They are the topological analogues of conventional solitons. We give a description of topological geons where the degrees of freedom related to topology are separated from the complete theory that contains metric (dynamical) degrees of freedom. The formalism also allows us to investigate processes of quantum topology change. They correspond to creation and annihilation of quantum geons. Selection rules for such processes are derived.

The Spin-Statistics Connection in Quantum Gravity

It is well-known that is spite of sharing some properties with conventional particles, topological geons in general violate the spin-statistics theorem. On the other hand, it is generally believed that in quantum gravity theories allowing for topology change, using pair creation and annihilation of geons, one should be able to recover this theorem. In this paper, we take an alternative route, and use an algebraic formalism developed in previous work. We give a description of topological geons where an algebra of "observables" is identified and quantized. Different irreducible representations of this algebra correspond to different kinds of geons, and are labeled by a non-abelian "charge" and "magnetic flux". We then find that the usual spin-statistics theorem is indeed violated, but a new spin-statistics relation arises, when we assume that the fluxes are superselected. This assumption can be proved if all observables are local, as is generally the case in physical theories. Finally, we also show how our approach fits into conventional formulations of quantum gravity.

Hamiltonian Reduction and the Construction of q-Deformed Extensions of the Virasoro Algebra

In this paper we employ the construction of Dirac bracket for the remaining current of $sl(2)_q$ deformed Kac-Moody algebra when constraints similar to those connecting the $sl(2)$-WZW model and the Liouville theory are imposed and show that it satisfy the q-Virasoro algebra proposed by Frenkel and Reshetikhin. The crucial assumption considered in our calculation is the existence of a classical Poisson bracket algebra induced, in a consistent manner by the correspondence principle, mapping the quantum generators into commuting objects of classical nature preserving their algebra.

Non Abelian Sugawara Construction and the q-deformed N=2 Superconformal Algebra

The construction of a q-deformed N=2 superconformal algebra is proposed in terms of level 1 currents of ${\cal{U}}_{q} ({\widehat{su}}(2))$ quantum affine Lie algebra and a single real Fermi field. In particular, it suggests the expression for the q-deformed Energy-Momentum tensor in the Sugawara form. Its constituents generate two isomorphic quadratic algebraic structures. The generalization to ${\cal{U}}_{q} ({\widehat{su}}(N+1))$ is also proposed.
