A special irreducible matrix representation of the real Clifford algebra C(3,1)
4 × 4 Dirac (gamma) matrices (irreducible matrix representations of the Clifford algebras C(3,1), C(1,3), C(4,0)) are an essential part of many calculations in quantum physics. Although the final physical results do not depend on any particular representation of the Dirac matrices (e.g. due to the invariance of traces of products of Dirac matrices), the appropriate choice of the representation ...
متن کاملIRREDUCIBLE REPRESENTATIONS OF DEFORMED OSCILLATOR ALGEBRA AND q-SPECIAL FUNCTIONS
Different generators of a deformed oscillator algebra give rise to oneparameter families of q-exponential functions and q-Hermite polynomials related by generating functions. Connections of the Stieltjes and Hamburger classical moment problems with the corresponding resolution of unity for the q-coherent states and with ’coordinate’ operators Jacobi matrices, are also pointed out. Permanent add...
متن کاملMatrix Representation of Special Relativity
I compare the matrix representation of the basic statements of Special Relativity with the conventional vector space representation. It is shown, that the matrix form reproduces all equations in a very concise and elegant form, namely: Maxwell equations, Lorentz-force, energy-momentum tensor, Dirac-equation and Lagrangians. The main thesis is, however, that both forms are nevertheless not equiv...
متن کاملTHE DUALITY OF THE L?-REPRESENTATION ALGEBRA ?(S ) OF A FOUNDATION SEMIGROUP S AND FUNCTION ALGEBRAS
In the present paper for a large family of topological semigroups, namely foundation semigroups, for which topological groups and discrete semigroups are elementary examples, it is shown that ?(S) is the dual of a function algebra.
متن کاملRepresentation of SU (∞) Algebra for Matrix Models
We investigate how the matrix representation of SU(N) algebra approaches that of the Poisson algebra in the large N limit. In the adjoint representation, the (N2 − 1)× (N2 − 1) matrices of the SU(N) generators go to those of the Poisson algebra in the large N limit. However, it is not the case for the N × N matrices in the fundamental representation.
