Mathematics Asked by theoreticalphysics on February 1, 2021
I am not sure of the meaning of the notation C<<…>> used to define a commutative algebra A and non commutative algebra A^ in the image attached. I do understand the meaning of the ideal. Also if the commutator in the denominator of A in (2.84) is zero what does C[[…]] mean?
This is a picture with the definitions I am referring to.
Also what does it mean for W to be an algebra isomorphism between A and A^?
$mathbb Clanglelangleldotsranglerangle$ denotes the ring of power series in noncommuting variables.
$mathbb C[[ldots]]$ denotes the ring of power series in commuting variables.
Frankly I don't know what else could be meant by "$W$ is an isomorphism between $A$ and $widehat{A}$" other than "$W$ is a bijective ring homomorphism between $A$ and $widehat{A}$".
That's all I can say given the limited context.
I do understand the meaning of the ideal.
"$mathcal I$ is the ideal generated by the commutation relations of the coordinate functions"
I would take that to mean the ideal generated by all the relations necessary to describe the difference between $hat{x}_ihat{x}_j$ and $hat{x}_jhat{x}_i$. I don't know what that is in your particular case (lack of context again). If you include $hat{x}_ihat{x}_j-hat{x}_jhat{x}_i$, that says the two coordinate functions commute. But it could also be something like $hat{x}_ihat{x}_j-hat{x}_jhat{x}_i-ihbar$ depending on their relationship.
