Conformal Mechanics and the Virasoro Algebra
نویسنده
چکیده
We demonstrate that any scale-invariant mechanics of one variable exhibits not only 0+1 conformal symmetry, but also the symmetries of a full Virasoro algebra. We discuss the implications for the adS/CFT correspondence.

متن کاملR – Conformal Symmetries . Ii . Geometric Quantization and Hidden Symmetries of Verma Modules over Virasoro Algebra
This article being a continuation of the first part [1] is addressed to specialists in representation theory, infinite dimensional geometry, quantum algebra, mathematical physics and informatics of interactive systems. The interrelations of the infinite dimensional geometry of the homogeneous Kähler manifold M = Diff+(S )/S (see e.g. [2] and numerous refs wherein), its quotient M1 = Diff+(S )/P...
متن کاملChiral Liouville Gravity
Classical two-dimensional Liouville gravity is often considered in conformal gauge which has a residual left and right Virasoro symmetry algebra. We consider an alternate, chiral, gauge which has a residual right Virasoro Kac-Moody algebra, and no left Virasoro algebra. The Kac-Moody zero mode is the left-moving energy. Dirac brackets of the constrained Hamiltonian theory are derived, and the r...
متن کاملLie triple derivation algebra of Virasoro-like algebra
Let $mathfrak{L}$ be the Virasoro-like algebra and $mathfrak{g}$ itsderived algebra, respectively. We investigate the structure of the Lie triplederivation algebra of $mathfrak{L}$ and $mathfrak{g}$. We provethat they are both isomorphic to $mathfrak{L}$, which provides twoexamples of invariance under triple derivation.
متن کاملThe emergence of the Virasoro and w∞ algebras through the renormalized powers of quantum white noise
We introduce a new renormalization for the powers of the Dirac delta function. We show that this new renormalization leads to a second quantized version of the Virasoro sector w∞ of the extended conformal algebra with infinite symmetries W∞ of Conformal Field Theory ( [4]-[7], [11], [13], [14]). In particular we construct a white noise (boson) representation of the w∞ generators and commutation...
