Infinite Dimensional Algebras in Chern-simons Quantum Mechanics
نویسنده
چکیده
We study a charged particle in an electromagnetic field without kinetic or potential term. Although dynamically trivial, this system is interesting because it has an infinite dimensional symmetry group. We discuss the way in which this group behaves under quantization. Ref. SISSA XX/91/EP (February 1991)

Perturbative Topological Field Theory
We give a review of the application of perturbative techniques to topologi-cal quantum eld theories, in particular three-dimensional Chern-Simons-Witten theory and its various generalizations. To this end we give an introduction to graph homology and homotopy algebras and the work of Vassiliev and Kontsevich on perturbative knot invariants.
متن کاملInconsistency of Naive Dimensional Regularizations and Quantum Correction to Non-Abelian Chern-Simons-Matter Theory Revisited
We find the inconsistency of dimensional reduction and naive dimensional regularization in their applications to Chern-Simons type gauge theories. Further we adopt a consistent dimensional regularization to investigate the quantum correction to non-Abelian Chern-Simons term coupled with fermionic matter. Contrary to previous results, we find that not only the Chern-Simons coefficient receives q...
متن کاملChern - Simons expectation values and quantum horizons from LQG and the Duflo map
We report on a new approach to the calculation of Chern-Simons theory expectation values, using the mathematical underpinnings of loop quantum gravity, as well as the Duflo map, a quantization map for functions on Lie algebras. These new developments can be used in the quantum theory for certain types of black hole horizons, and they may offer new insights for loop quantum gravity, Chern-Simons...
متن کاملOn Superpotentials and Charge Algebras of Gauge Theories
We propose a new “Hamiltonian inspired” covariant formula to define the superpotential of a gauge symmetry, and the physical charges associated to it. This follows from the similarities which exist between the canonical formalism and the cascade equation techniques. Following the Hamiltonian formalism, the idea is to require the variation of the Noether current to be “well defined” in a sens to...
متن کاملNew Modular Representations and Fusion Algebras from Quantized Sl(2,r) Chern-simons Theories
We consider the quantum-mechanical algebra of observables generated by canonical quantization of SL(2, R) Chern-Simons theory with rational charge on a space manifold with torus topology. We produce modular representations generalizing the representations associated to the SU(2) WZW models and we exhibit the explicit polynomial representations of the corresponding fusion algebras. The relation ...
