Efficient rules for all conformal blocks

We formulate a set of general rules for computing d-dimensional four-point global conformal blocks of operators in arbitrary Lorentz representations in the context of the embedding space operator product expansion formalism [1]. With these rules, the procedure for determining any conformal block of interest is reduced to (1) identifying the relevant projection operators and tensor structures and (2) applying the conformal rules to obtain the blocks. To facilitate the bookkeeping of contributing terms, we introduce a convenient diagrammatic notation. We present several concrete examples to illustrate the general procedure as well as to demonstrate and test the explicit application of the rules. In particular, we consider four-point functions involving scalars S and some specific irreducible representations R, namely 〈SSSS〉, 〈SSSR〉, 〈SRSR〉 and 〈SSRR〉 (where, when allowed, R is a vector or a fermion), and determine the corresponding blocks for all possible exchanged representations.

Structure of Iso-Symmetric Operators

For a Hilbert space operator T∈B(H), let LT and RT∈B(B(H)) denote, respectively, the operators of left multiplication and right multiplication by T. For positive integers m and n, let ▵T∗,Tm(I)=(LT∗RT−I)m(I) and δT∗,Tn(I)=(LT∗−RT)m(I). The operator T is said to be (m,n)-isosymmetric if ▵T∗,TmδT∗,Tn(I)=0. Power bounded (m,n)-isosymmetric operators T∈B(H) have an upper triangular matrix representation T=T1T30T2∈B(H1⊕H2) such that T1∈B(H1) is a C0.-operator which satisfies δT1∗,T1n(I|H1)=0 and T2∈B(H2) is a C1.-operator which satisfies AT2=(Vu⊕Vb)|H2A, A=limt→∞T2∗tT2t, Vu is a unitary and Vb is a bilateral shift. If, in particular, T is cohyponormal, then T is the direct sum of a unitary with a C00-contraction.

Hyponormality on a Weighted Bergman Space

A bounded Hilbert space operator T is hyponormal if T∗T−TT∗ is a positive operator. We consider the hyponormality of Toeplitz operators on a weighted Bergman space. We find a necessary condition for hyponormality in the case of a symbol of the form f+g¯ where f and g are bounded analytic functions on the unit disk. We then find sufficient conditions when f is a monomial.

On the class of (A,n) - real power positive operators in semi-hilbertian space

In this paper, the concept of the class of n-Real power positive operators on a hilbert space defined by Abdelkader Benali in [1] is generalized when an additional semi-inner product is considered. This new concept is described by means of oblique projections. For a Hilbert space operator T ∈ B(H) is (A,n) - Real power positive operators for some positive operator A and for some positive integer n ifTn + T#n ≥A 0, n = 1,2,...Keywords: Real power, Semi-Hilbertian space, Semi-inner product, Positive operators. 2000Mathematics Subject Classification: Primary 47B20.
