Heisenberg algebra


Let R be a commutative ring. Let M be a http://planetmath.org/node/5420moduleover R http://planetmath.org/node/5420freely generated by two sets {Pi}iI and {Qi}iI, whereI is an index setMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath, and a further element c. Define a productPlanetmathPlanetmath[,]:M×MM by bilinear extension by setting

[c,c]=[c,Pi]=[Pi,c]=[c,Qi]=[Qi,c]=[Pi,Pj]=[Qi,Qj]=0 forall i,jI,
=[Qi,Pj]=0 for all distinct i,jI,
=-[Qi,Pi]=c for all iI.

The module M together with this product is called a Heisenbergalgebra. The element c is called the central element.

It is easy to see that the product [,] also fulfills theJacobi identityMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath, so a Heisenberg algebra is actually a Lie algebra ofrank |I|+1 (opposed to the rank of M as free modulePlanetmathPlanetmath, which is2|I|+1) with one-dimensional center generated by c.

Heisenberg algebras arise in quantum mechanics with R= andtypically I={1,2,3}, but also in the theory of vertex with I=.

In the case where R is a field, the Heisenberg algebra is related toa Weyl algebra: let U be the universal enveloping algebra ofM, then the quotient U/c-1 is isomorphicPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath to the |I|-th Weylalgebra over R.
