Topic: Adjoint action

	Adjoint representation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In mathematics, the adjoint representation (or adjoint action) of a Lie group G is the natural representation of G on its own Lie algebra.
		This representation is the linearized version of the action of G on itself by conjugation.
		The representation is equivalent to that given by the action of G by linear substitution on the space of binary (i.e., 2 variable) quadratic forms.

		We investigate the phase structure of pure SU(2) lattice gauge theory at finite temperature with both the mixed and the pure adjoint action, modified with a Z(2) monopole chemical potential.
		The decoupling of the finite temperature phase transition from the unphysical zero temperature bulk phase transitions is analyzed in connection to the continuum limit.
		The possible relation of the adjoint Polyakov loop behavior with another underlying symmetry breaking and the definition of a related order parameter for the finite temperature phase transition are discussed, with special emphasis on the topological structure of the theory.

		The explicit matrix elements of the adjoint representation are given by the structure constants of the algebra.

	Research Problems
		An action of a group G on a space M is a map from G x M to M that "respects" the multiplication in G. Matrix-vector multiplication and conjugation of a matrix by an invertible matrix are examples of group actions.
		For example, in the case of a so-called co-adjoint action on lower triangular matrices by invertible upper triangular ones, this problem is known to be "wild".
		We suggest a problem of describing minimal orbits in the case of generalization of a triangular co-adjoint action to the case of symplectic and oprthogonal matrices.

		Finally, the adjoint action of Gl(n,\mathbbR) on Gl(n,\mathbbR) defined by (A,B) is not effective, since any multiple of the identity maps any B to itself.
		In particular, if the action is transitive, the space M is homogeneous, and conversely.

	APPENDIX B
		In the adjoint representation of a semisimple Lie algebra, the algebra basis is represented by matrices whose elements are the structure constants.
		The Cartan metric metric provides a map between L and its dual space L^+, the space of linear functionals acting on L. The adjoint action of the group on L is then mapped by the Cartan metric to an action of the group on L^+, the coadjoint representation.
		The adjoint action of a Lie group on its algebra defined in equation (B.10) and in the preceding, exponentiates to the adjoint action of the group on itself.

		A co-adjoint orbit $\O\subset \h^$ is then analogous to an irreducible unitary representation $\plg$, and the Marsden-Weinstein reduced space $J^{-1}(\O)/H\equiv (T^G)^{\O}$, carrying the induced action $\pi^{\O}$ of $\cin(\g^)$, is the symplectic counterpart of the Hilbert space $\hug$ carrying the induced representation $\pug$ of $G$ (or $C^(G)$).
		In operator theory, a (right) action of a $\mbox{}^$-algebra $\B$ on a Hilbert space $\H$ amounts to a $\mbox{}^$-anti-homomorphism $\pi^-:\B\raw {\cal L}(\H)$, which is the `quantum' analogue of $J^*$.
		This action preserves the Lie-Poisson structure, and the corresponding generalized moment map $j$ is simply given by $j(\th)=\th \upharpoonright \h$.

		Drinfeld's construction of quantum doubles is one of sev- eral recent advances in the theory of Hopf algebras (and their actions on rings) which may be attractively presented within the framework of complex cobordism; these developments were pioneered by S P Novikov and the first author.
		We may combine Proposition 4.28 and Corollary 4.29 to ensure that the diagonal action of S* on DU* and G* is identified with the adjoint action on S*.
		The action of the diagonal subalgebra S* restricts to G, and is identified with the adjoint* action on S* by Corollary 4.29.

		There is a proper balance between, and a natural combination of, the algebraic and geometric aspects of Lie theory, not only in technical proofs but also in conceptual viewpoints.

		Cartan and the Weyl reduction of the adjoint action on G to the Weyl group action on a chosen maximal torus are presented as the key results that provide a clear-cut understanding of the orbital geometry.

		An affirmative answer would corroborate the view that the full physical information of a theory is encoded in the particular ``net structure'' of the corresponding observables, {\it i.e.}\ the specific nesting of the algebras of observables corresponding to different spacetime regions \cite{Haag}.
		Note that no assumptions are made about the specific form of this action and the nature of the resulting group.
		This action is precisely that found by Bisognano and Wichmann \cite{BW1,BW2} in their study of the modular objects associated with the Minkowski vacuum and wedge algebras in finite--component quantum field theories satisfying the Wightman axioms.

		The image of I is the subalgebra of U, studied by Joseph and Letzter, consisting of elements finite under the adjoint action.
		Finally, I maps the algebra of "functions" in A which are invariant under the adjoint action onto the center of U: in connection with this fact, we prove a statement, due to Reshetikhin, which provides a set of generators of the center of U starting from the "F.R.T. construction".
		This action factors for some modules through the action of a Hecke algebra.

		The group P acts on the Lie algebra $\mathfrak p_u$ of its unipotent radical $ P_u$ via the adjoint action.
		The modality of this action, mod ($P : \mathfrak p_u)$, is the maximal number of parameters upon which a family of P-orbits on $\mathfrak p_u$ depends.
		More generally, we also consider the modality of the action of P on an invariant subspace $\mathfrak n$ of $\mathfrak p_u$, that is mod ($P :\mathfrak n)$.

		Proof: Consider the adjoint action of U as a group of automorphisms on itself, v -> U! v U, for v in U. If PHI is a Fourier transform, since the spectrum is invariant under U, then so is (u!
		The adjoint action of a Fourier transform PHI on Alg(Hilb(n)) breaks Alg(Hilb(n)) as a vector space into four subspaces which are cyclically permuted under the action of PHI.
		The analogy to the action of Fr(n) on Q(n) and P(n) and the inversion of Fr^2(n) is clear.

	Laplace
		I have sought to establish that the phenomena of nature can be reduced in the last analysis to actions at a distance between molecule and molecule, and that the consideration of these actions must serve as the basis of the mathematical theory of these phenomena.
		This approach to physics, attempting to explain everything from the forces acting locally between molecules, already was used by him in the fourth volume of the Mécanique Céleste which appeared in 1805.
		After the publication of the fourth volume of the Mécanique Céleste, Laplace continued to apply his ideas of physics to other problems such as capillary action (1806-07), double refraction (1809), the velocity of sound (1816), the theory of heat, in particular the shape and rotation of the cooling Earth (1817-1820), and elastic fluids (1821).

	ON QUANTUM THEORETICAL ORIGINS OF NEWTONIAN TIME
		One naturally then wonders about the nature of the points ("events") of any model of physical space and times, and the structures of internal spaces that support the actions of "internal symmetry groups" and their Lie algebras.
		The adjoint representation of CCR as a nilpotent Lie algebra is an immediate and simple counterexample.
		As it turns out, because the RHS of the fundamental CR is "the identity operator", any linear transformation of it, unitary or no, leaves it form invariant; only unitary transformations will preserve the formal Hermiticity of the p and q operators.

		Abstract: In this paper, I prove an analog of the Gauss-Bonnet formula for constructible sheaves on reductive groups.
		This formula holds for all constructible sheaves equivariant under the adjoint action and expresses the Euler characteristic of a sheaf via the Gaussian degrees of the components of its characteristic cycle.
		As a corollary from this formula I get that if a perverse sheaf on a reductive group is equivariant under the adjoint action, then its Euler characteristic is nonnegative.
