  • c © 2005 Heldermann Verlag Quantum Racah coefficients and Subrepresentation semirings
    2014
    Co-Authors: Daniel S. Sage, Communicated K. Schmüdgen
    Abstract:

    Abstract. Let G be a group and A a G-algebra. The Subrepresentation semiring of A is the set of Subrepresentations of A endowed with operations induced by the algebra operations. The introduction of these semirings was motivated by a problem in material science. Typically, physical properties of composite materials are strongly dependent on microstructure. However, in ex-ceptional situations, exact relations exist which are microstructure-independent. Grabovsky has constructed an abstract theory of exact relations, reducing the search for exact relations to a purely algebraic problem involving the product of SU(2)-Subrepresentations in certain endomorphism algebras. We have shown that the structure of the associated semirings can be described explicitly in terms of Racah coefficients. In this paper, we prove an analogous relationship between Racah coefficients for the quantum algebra Ŭq(sl2) and semirings for endomor-phism algebras of representations of Ŭq(sl2). We generalize the construction of Subrepresentation semirings to the Hopf algebra setting. For Ŭq(sl2), we compute these semirings for the endomorphism algebra of an arbitrary complex finite-dimensional representation. When the representation is irreducible, we show that the Subrepresentation semiring can be described explicitly in terms of the vanishing of q-Racah coefficients. We further show that q-Racah coefficients can be defined entirely in terms of the multiplication of Subrepresentations. 1

  • Subrepresentation semirings and an analog of 6j-symbols
    Journal of Mathematical Physics, 2008
    Co-Authors: Namhee Kwon, Daniel S. Sage
    Abstract:

    Let V be a complex representation of the compact group G. The Subrepresentation semiring associated to V is the set of Subrepresentations of the algebra of linear endomorphisms of V with operations induced by the matrix operations. The study of these semirings has been motivated by recent advances in materials science, in which the search for microstructure-independent exact relations for physical properties of composites has been reduced to the study of these semirings for the rotation group SO(3). In this case, the structure constants for Subrepresentation semirings can be described explicitly in terms of the 6j-symbols familiar from the quantum theory of angular momentum. In this paper, we investigate Subrepresentation semirings for the class of quasisimply reducible groups defined by Mackey [“Multiplicity free representations of finite groups,” Pac. J. Math. 8, 503 (1958)]. We introduce a new class of symbols called twisted 6j-symbols for these groups, and we explicitly calculate the structure constan...

  • Racah coefficients, Subrepresentation semirings, and composite materials
    Advances in Applied Mathematics, 2005
    Co-Authors: Daniel S. Sage
    Abstract:

    Typically, physical properties of composite materials are strongly dependent on microstructure. However, in exceptional situations, exact relations exist which are microstructure-independent. Grabovsky has constructed an abstract theory of exact relations, reducing the search for exact relations to a purely algebraic problem involving the multiplication of SO(3)-Subrepresentations in certain endomorphism algebras. This motivates us to introduce Subrepresentation semirings, algebraic structures which formalize Subrepresentation multiplication. We study the ideals and subsemirings of these semirings, relating them to properties of the underlying G-algebra and proving classification theorems in the case of endomorphism algebras of representations. For SU(2), we compute these semirings for general V. When V is irreducible, we describe the semiring structure explicitly in terms of the vanishing of Racah coefficients, coefficients familiar from the quantum theory of angular momentum. In fact, we show that Racah coefficients can be defined entirely in terms of Subrepresentation multiplication.
