Persistent Dirac for molecular representation

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Molecular representations are of fundamental importance for the modeling and analysing molecular systems. The successes in drug design and materials discovery have been greatly contributed by molecular representation models.

Dirac-Jacobi Bundles

open access: yes, 2018
We show that a suitable notion of Dirac-Jacobi structure on a generic line bundle $L$, is provided by Dirac structures in the omni-Lie algebroid of $L$.

Conformal Dirac Structures

open access: yesLetters in Mathematical Physics, 2000
The Courant bracket defined originally on the sections of the vector bundle TM ⊕ T*M → M is extended to the direct sum of the 1-jet vector bundle and its dual. The extended bracket allows one to interpret many structures encountered in differential geometry in terms of Dirac structures. We give here a new approach to conformal Jacobi structures.

Dirac structures in vakonomic mechanics

open access: yesJournal of Geometry and Physics, 2015
In this paper, we explore dynamics of the nonholonomic system called vakonomic mechanics in the context of Lagrange-Dirac dynamical systems using a Dirac structure and its associated Hamilton-Pontryagin variational principle. We first show the link between vakonomic mechanics and nonholonomic mechanics from the viewpoints of Dirac structures as well as

On the Quantization of AB Phase in Nonlinear Systems

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
Self-intersecting energy band structures in momentum space can be induced by nonlinearity at the mean-field level, with the so-called nonlinear Dirac cones as one intriguing consequence.

Pseudo-Dirac structures

open access: yesIndagationes Mathematicae, 2014
A Dirac structure is a Lagrangian subbundle of a Courant algebroid, $L\subset\mathbb{E}$, which is involutive with respect to the Courant bracket. In particular, $L$ inherits the structure of a Lie algebroid. In this paper, we introduce the more general notion of a pseudo-Dirac structure: an arbitrary subbundle, $W\subset\mathbb{E}$, together with a ...

An inverse seesaw model with A4-modular symmetry

open access: yesNuclear Physics B, 2021
We discuss an inverse seesaw model based on right-handed fermion specific U(1) gauge symmetry and A4-modular symmetry. These symmetries forbid unnecessary terms and restrict structures of Yukawa interactions which are relevant to inverse seesaw mechanism.

Contact manifolds and generalized complex structures

open access: yes, 2004
We give simple characterizations of contact 1-forms in terms of Dirac structures. We also relate normal almost contact structures to the theory of Dirac structures.Comment: 12 pages, typos ...

On the Dirac structure of confinement [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 1997
The Dirac structure of confinement is shown to be of timelike-vector nature in the heavy quark limit of QCD. This stands in contradiction with the phenomenological success of the Dirac scalar confining potential. A resolution is achieved through the demonstration that an effective scalar interaction is dynamically generated by nonperturbative mixing ...
