q-EPSILON TENSOR FOR QUANTUM AND BRAIDED SPACES
نویسنده
چکیده
The machinery of braided geometry introduced previously is used now to construct the ǫ ‘totally antisymmetric tensor’ on a general braided vector space determined by R-matrices. This includes natural q-Euclidean and q-Minkowski spaces. The formalism is completely covariant under the corresponding quantum group such as ̃ SOq(4) or ̃ SOq(1, 3). The Hodge ∗ operator and differentials are also constructed in this approach.

متن کاملUnbraiding the braided tensor product
We show that the braided tensor product algebra A1⊗A2 of two module algebras A1,A2 of a quasitriangular Hopf algebraH is equal to the ordinary tensor product algebra of A1 with a subalgebra of A1⊗A2 isomorphic to A2, provided there exists a realization of H within A1. In other words, under this assumption we construct a transformation of generators which ‘decouples’ A1,A2 (i.e. makes them commu...
متن کامل∗–Structures on Braided Spaces
∗-structures on quantum and braided spaces of the type defined via an R-matrix are studied. These include q-Minkowski and q-Euclidean spaces as additive braided groups. The duality between the ∗-braided groups of vectors and covectors is proved and some first applications to braided geometry are made.
متن کاملAlgebraic q-Integration and Fourier Theory on Quantum and Braided Spaces
We introduce an algebraic theory of integration on quantum planes and other braided spaces. In the one dimensional case we obtain a novel picture of the Jackson q-integral as indefinite integration on the braided group of functions in one variable x. Here x is treated with braid statistics q rather than the usual bosonic or Grassmann ones. We show that the definite integral ∫ x∞ −x∞ can also be...

A generalized oscillator algebra is proposed and the braided Hopf algebra structure for this generalized oscillator is investigated. Using the solutions for the braided Hopf algebra structure, two types of braided Fibonacci oscillators are introduced. This leads to two types of braided Biedenharn-Macfarlane oscillators as special cases of the Fibonacci oscillators. We also find the braided Hopf...
