The Matrix

The ladder operator formalism of a general quantum state for su(1, 1) Lie algebra is obtained. The state bears the generally deformed oscillator algebraic structure. It is found that the Perelomov's coherent state is a su(1, 1) nonlinear coherent state. The expansion and the exponential form of the nonlinear coherent state are given. We obtain the matrix elements of the su(1, 1) displacement operator in terms of the hypergeometric functions and the expansions of the displaced number states and Laguerre polynomial states are followed. Finally some interesting su(1, 1) optical systems are discussed.

Lowering Operators

We bring to light an electroweak model which has been reappearing in the literature under various guises.[Formula: see text] In this model, weak isospin is shown to act automatically on states of only a single chirality (left). This is achieved by building the model exclusively from the raising and lowering operators of the Clifford algebra [Formula: see text]. That is, states constructed from these ladder operators mimic the behaviour of left- and right-handed electrons and neutrinos under unitary ladder operator symmetry. This ladder operator symmetry is found to be generated uniquely by [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. Crucially, the model demonstrates how parity can be maximally violated, without the usual step of introducing extra gauge and extra Higgs bosons, or ad hoc projectors.

Higher Genus

We consider the Feigin-Fuchs-Felder formalism of the SU (2)k× SU (2)l/ SU (2)k+l coset minimal conformal field theory and extend it to higher genus. We investigate a double BRST complex with respect to two compatible BRST charges, one associated with the parafermion sector and the other associated with the minimal sector in the theory. The usual screened vertex operator is extended to the BRST-invariant screened three-string vertex. We carry out a sewing operation of these vertices and derive the BRST-invariant screened g-loop operator. The latter operator characterizes the higher genus structure of the theory. An analogous operator formalism for the topological minimal model is obtained as the limit l=0 of the coset theory. We give some calculations of correlation functions on higher genus.
