We introduce the Lie algebra of super-operators associated with a quantum filter, specifically emerging from the Stratonovich calculus. In classical filtering, the analogue algebra leads to a geometric theory of nonlinear filtering which leads to well-known results by Brockett and by Mitter characterizing potential models where the curse-of-dimensionality may be avoided, and finite dimensional filters obtained. We discuss the quantum analogue to these results. In particular, we see that, in the case where all outputs are subjected to homodyne measurement, the Lie algebra of super-operators is isomorphic to a Lie algebra of system operators from which one may approach the question of the existence of finite-dimensional filters.
We define a supersymmetric quantum mechanics of fermions that take values in a simple Lie algebra. We summarize what is known about the spectrum and eigenspaces of the Laplacian which corresponds to the Koszul differential d. Firstly, we concentrate on the zero eigenvalue eigenspace which coincides with the Lie algebra cohomology. We provide physical insight into useful tools to compute the cohomology, namely Morse theory and the Hochschild-Serre spectral sequence. We list explicit generators for the Lie algebra cohomology ring. Secondly, we concentrate on the eigenspaces of the supersymmetric quantum mechanics with maximal eigenvalue at given fermion number. These eigenspaces have an explicit description in terms of abelian ideals of a Borel subalgebra of the simple Lie algebra. We also introduce a model of Lie algebra valued fermions in two dimensions, where the spaces of maximal eigenvalue acquire a cohomological interpretation. Our work provides physical interpretations of results by mathematicians, and simplifies the proof of a few theorems. Moreover, we recall that these mathematical results play a role in pure supersymmetric gauge theory in four dimensions, and observe that they give rise to a canonical representation of the four-dimensional chiral ring.
We study the homology and cohomology groups of super Lie algebra of supersymmetries and of super Poincare Lie algebra in various dimensions. We give complete answers for (non-extended) supersymmetry in all dimensions $leq 11$. For dimensions $D=10,11$ we describe also the cohomology of reduction of supersymmetry Lie algebra to lower dimensions. Our methods can be applied to extended supersymmetry algebra.
We study the homology and cohomology groups of super Lie algebra of supersymmetries and of super Poincare algebra. We discuss in detail the calculation in dimensions D=10 and D=6. Our methods can be applied to extended supersymmetry algebra and to other dimensions.
From a commutative associative algebra $A$, the infinite dimensional unital 3-Lie Poisson algebra~$mathfrak{L}$~is constructed, which is also a canonical Nambu 3-Lie algebra, and the structure of $mathfrak{L}$ is discussed. It is proved that: (1) there is a minimal set of generators $S$ consisting of six vectors; (2) the quotient algebra $mathfrak{L}/mathbb{F}L_{0, 0}^0$ is a simple 3-Lie Poisson algebra; (3) four important infinite dimensional 3-Lie algebras: 3-Virasoro-Witt algebra $mathcal{W}_3$, $A_omega^delta$, $A_{omega}$ and the 3-$W_{infty}$ algebra can be embedded in $mathfrak{L}$.
We classify the finite-dimensional irreducible representations of the Yangians associated with the orthosymplectic Lie superalgebras ${frak{osp}}_{1|2n}$ in terms of the Drinfeld polynomials. The arguments rely on the description of the representations in the particular case $n=1$ obtained in our previous work.
