  • Matrix Valued Spherical Functions Associated to the Complex Projective Plane
    Journal of Functional Analysis, 2002
    Co-Authors: F. A. Grünbaum, Inés Pacharoni, Juan Tirao
    Abstract:

    Abstract The main purpose of this paper is to compute all irreducible spherical functions on G=SU(3) of arbitrary type δ∈K, where K=S(U(2)×U(1))≃U(2). This is accomplished by associating to a spherical function Φ on G a matrix valued function H on the complex Projective Plane P2( C )=G/K. It is well known that there is a fruitful connection between the hypergeometric function of Euler and Gauss and the spherical functions of trivial type associated to a rank one symmetric pair (G, K). But the relation of spherical functions of types of dimension bigger than one with classical analysis has not been worked out even in the case of an example of a rank one pair. The entries of H can be described by solutions of two systems of ordinary differential equations. There is no ready-made approach to such a pair of systems or even to a single system of this kind. In our case the situation is very favorable and the solution to this pair of systems can be exhibited explicitly in terms of a special class of generalized hypergeometric functions p+1Fp.

  • Matrix Valued Spherical Functions Associated to the Complex Projective Plane
    arXiv: Representation Theory, 2001
    Co-Authors: F. A. Grünbaum, Inés Pacharoni, Juan Tirao
    Abstract:

    The main purpose of this paper is to compute all irreducible spherical functions on $G=\SU(3)$ of arbitrary type $\delta\in \hat K$, where $K={\mathrm{S}}(\mathrm{U}(2)\times\mathrm{U}(1))\simeq\mathrm{U}(2)$. This is accomplished by associating to a spherical function $\Phi$ on $G$ a matrix valued function $H$ on the complex Projective Plane $P_2(\mathbb{C})=G/K$. It is well known that there is a fruitful connection between the hypergeometric function of Euler and Gauss and the spherical functions of trivial type associated to a rank one symmetric pair $(G,K)$. But the relation of spherical functions of types of dimension bigger than one with classical analysis, has not been worked out even in the case of an example of a rank one pair. The entries of $H$ are solutions of two systems of ordinary differential equations. There is no ready made approach to such a pair of systems, or even to a single system of this kind. In our case the situation is very favorable and the solution to this pair of systems can be exhibited explicitely in terms of a special class of generalized hypergeometric functions ${}_{p+1}F_p$.

  • even tiers and resonances on the real Projective Plane
    arXiv: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology, 2012
    Co-Authors: Giacomo Cacciapaglia, B Kubik
    Abstract:

    In this work we focus on various phenomenological aspects of the lightest even tiers, (2,0) and (0,2), in models based on a Real Projective Plane in 6 dimensions. We discuss the spectrum of the levels due to loop corrections, and the limit when the two radii are equal, in which case the two levels mix with each other and a new basis is defined. We also discuss the dependence of the spectrum on the ratio of the two radii. These results are essential to understand the phenomenology of the model at colliders (LHC) and to predict the relic abundance of Dark Matter. Finally, we estimate the bounds on the radius from resonant decays of the even tiers at the LHC, showing that they can be in the 600 GeV range after the complete analysis of the 2011 data.

  • the universal real Projective Plane lhc phenomenology at one loop
    Journal of High Energy Physics, 2011
    Co-Authors: Giacomo Cacciapaglia, A. Deandrea, Jeremie Llodraperez
    Abstract:

    The Real Projective Plane is the lowest dimensional orbifold which, when combined with the usual Minkowski space-time, gives rise to a unique model in six flat dimensions possessing an exact Kaluza Klein (KK) parity as a relic symmetry of the broken six dimensional Lorentz group. As a consequence of this property, any model formulated on this background will include a stable Dark Matter candidate. Loop corrections play a crucial role because they remove mass degeneracy in the tiers of KK modes and induce new couplings which mediate decays. We study the full one loop structure of the corrections by means of counter-terms localised on the two singular points. As an application, the LHC phenomenology of the (2, 0) and (0, 2) tiers is discussed. We identify promising signatures with single and di-lepton, top anti-top and 4 tops: in the di-lepton channel, present data from CMS and ATLAS may already exclude KK masses up to 250 GeV, while by next year they may cover the whole mass range preferred by WMAP data.

  • Four tops on the real Projective Plane at LHC
    Journal of High Energy Physics, 2011
    Co-Authors: G. Cacciapaglia, A. Deandrea, R. Chierici, L. Panizzi, S. Perries, S. Tosi
    Abstract:

    We explore the four top signal ttbar ttbar at the 7 TeV Large Hadron Collider as a probe of physics beyond the standard model. Enhancement of the corresponding cross-section with respect to the Standard Model value can probe the electroweak symmetry breaking sector or test extra dimensional models with heavy Kaluza-Klein gluons and quarks. We perform a detailed analysis including background and detector simulation in the specific case of a universal extra-dimensional model with two extra dimensions compactified using the geometry of the real Projective Plane. For masses around 600 GeV, a discovery is possible for an effective cross section above 210 fb (36 fb) for 1/fb (10/fb) of integrated luminosity. This implies a branching ratio in tops of the (1,1) heavy photon above 13% (5%). Furthermore, the 4-top signal from the (2,0) and (0,2) tiers can be discovered with an integrated luminosity of 3.5/fb. The results of our simulation can be easily adapted to other models since the background processes are identical. Concerning the signal, typical production mechanisms for the ttbar ttbar signal are similar even if cross-section values may vary considerably depending on the model and the spectrum of the new particles.

  • k nets embedded in a Projective Plane over a field
    Combinatorica, 2015
    Co-Authors: Gabor Korchmaros, Gabor P Nagy, Nicola Pace
    Abstract:

    We investigate k-nets with k?4 embedded in the Projective Plane PG(2, $\mathbb{K}$ ) defined over a field $\mathbb{K}$ ; they are line configurations in PG(2, $\mathbb{K}$ ) consisting of k pairwise disjoint line-sets, called components, such that any two lines from distinct families are concurrent with exactly one line from each component. The size of each component of a k-net is the same, the order of the k-net. If $\mathbb{K}$ has zero characteristic, no embedded k-net for k?5 exists; see [11,14]. Here we prove that this holds true in positive characteristic p as long as p is sufficiently large compared with the order of the k-net. Our approach, different from that used in [11,14], also provides a new proof in characteristic zero.

Surprisingly, they are the smallest known complete arcs in the Planes , and . Moreover, computational results are presented for the cases and . New upper bounds on the size of the smallest complete arc are obtained for .

  • 3 nets realizing a group in a Projective Plane
    Journal of Algebraic Combinatorics, 2014
    Co-Authors: Gabor Korchmaros, Gabor P Nagy, Nicola Pace
    Abstract:

    In a Projective Plane $\mathit{PG}(2,\mathbb{K})$ defined over an algebraically closed field $\mathbb{K}$ of characteristic 0, we give a complete classification of 3-nets realizing a finite group. An infinite family, due to Yuzvinsky (Compos. Math. 140:1614---1624, 2004), arises from Plane cubics and comprises 3-nets realizing cyclic and direct products of two cyclic groups. Another known infinite family, due to Pereira and Yuzvinsky (Adv. Math. 219:672---688, 2008), comprises 3-nets realizing dihedral groups. We prove that there is no further infinite family. Urzua's 3-nets (Adv. Geom. 10:287---310, 2010) realizing the quaternion group of order 8 are the unique sporadic examples. If p is larger than the order of the group, the above classification holds in characteristic p>0 apart from three possible exceptions $\rm{Alt}_{4}$ , $\rm{Sym}_{4}$ , and $\rm{Alt}_{5}$ . Motivation for the study of finite 3-nets in the complex Plane comes from the study of complex line arrangements and from resonance theory; see (Falk and Yuzvinsky in Compos. Math. 143:1069---1088, 2007; Miguel and Buzunariz in Graphs Comb. 25:469---488, 2009; Pereira and Yuzvinsky in Adv. Math. 219:672---688, 2008; Yuzvinsky in Compos. Math. 140:1614---1624, 2004; Yuzvinsky in Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 137:1641---1648, 2009).
