A $Gamma$-so-ring is a structure possessing a natural partial ordering, an infinitary partial addition and a ternary multiplication, subject to a set of axioms. The partial functions under disjoint-domain sums and functional composition is a $Gamma$-so-ring. In this paper we introduce the notions of subdirect product and $(phi,rho)$-product of $Gamma$-so-rings and study $(phi,rho)$-represen...

Starting from the classical r-matrix of the non-standard (or Jordanian) quantum deformation of the sl(2,R) algebra, new triangular quantum deformations for the real Lie algebras so(2, 2), so(3, 1) and iso(2, 1) are simultaneously constructed by using a graded contraction scheme; these are realized as deformations of conformal algebras of (1 + 1)-dimensional spacetimes. Timetype and space-type q...

We present a 1-parameter family of finite action solutions to the S0(2, 1) Hitchin’s equations and explore some of its basic properties. For a fixed value of the parameter, the solution is smooth. We conclude by showing a multi-particle generalization of our basic solutions.
