Linear Bundle of Lie Algebras Applied to the Classification of Real Lie Algebras

We present a new look at the classification of real low-dimensional Lie algebras based on the notion of a linear bundle of Lie algebras. Belonging to a suitable family of Lie bundles entails the compatibility of the Lie–Poisson structures with the dual spaces of those algebras. This gives compatibility of bi-Hamiltonian structure on the space of upper triangular matrices and with a bundle at the algebra level. We will show that all three-dimensional Lie algebras belong to two of these families and four-dimensional Lie algebras can be divided in three of these families.

GENERAL SOLUTION OF THE QUANTUM DAMPED HARMONIC OSCILLATOR II: SOME EXAMPLES

In the preceding paper (arXiv: 0710.2724 [quant-ph]) we have constructed the general solution for the master equation of quantum damped harmonic oscillator, which is given by the complicated infinite series in the operator algebra level. In this paper we give the explicit and compact forms to solutions (density operators) for some initial values. In particular, the compact one for the initial value based on a coherent state is given, which has not been given as far as we know. Moreover, some related problems are presented.

An algebra-level version of a link-polynomial identity of Lickorish

We establish isomorphisms between certain specializations of BMW algebras and the symmetric squares of Temperley–Lieb algebras. These isomorphisms imply a link-polynomial identity due to W. B. R. Lickorish. As an application, we compute the closed images of the irreducible braid group representations factoring over these specialized BMW algebras.

Some Norms on Universal Enveloping Algebras

The universal enveloping algebra, U(𝔤), of a Lie algebra 𝔤 supports some norms and seminorms that have arisen naturally in the context of heat kernel analysis on Lie groups. These norms and seminorms are investigated here from an algebraic viewpoint. It is shown that the norms corresponding to heat kernels on the associated Lie groups decompose as product norms under the natural isomorphism . The seminorms corresponding to Green's functions are examined at a purely Lie algebra level for sl (2, ℂ). It is also shown that the algebraic dual space U′ is spanned by its finite rank elements if and only if 𝔤 is nilpotent.

Equidimensional immersions of locally compact groups

Dense immersions occur frequently in Lie group theory. Suppose that exp: g → G denotes the exponential function of a Lie group and a is a Lie subalgebra of g. Then there is a unique Lie group ALie with exponential function exp:a → ALie and an immersion f:ALie→G whose induced morphism L(j) on the Lie algebra level is the inclusion a → g and which has as image an analytic subgroup A of G. The group Ā is a connected Lie group in which A is normal and dense and the corestrictionis a dense immersion. Unless A is closed, in which case f' is an isomorphism of Lie groups, dim a = dim ALie is strictly smaller than dim h = dim H.
