We show that a class of non-relativistic algebras including non centrally-extended Schrodinger algebra and Galilean Conformal Algebra (GCA) has an affine extension in 2+1 hitherto unknown. This extension arises out of the conformal symmetries of the two dimensional complex plain. We suggest that this affine form may be the symmetry that explains the relaxation of some classical phenomena towards their critical point. This affine algebra admits a central extension and maybe realized in the bulk. The bulk realization suggests that this algebra may be derived by looking at the asymptotic symmetry of an AdS theory. This suggests that AdS/CFT duality may take on a special form in four dimensions.
We show how logarithmic terms may arise in the correlators of fields which belong to the representation of the Schrödinger-Virasoro algebra (SV) or the affine Galilean Conformal Algebra (GCA). We show that in GCA, only scaling operator can have a Jordan form and rapidity cannot. We observe that in both algebras logarithmic dependence appears along the time direction alone.
Balance theory proposed by Heider for the first time modeled triplet interaction in a signed network, stating that relationships between two people, friendship or enmity, is dependent on a third person. The Hamiltonian of this model has an implicit assumption that all triads are independent, meaning that state of each triad, being balanced or imbalanced, is ineffective to others. This independence forces the network to have completely balanced final states. However, there exists evidence indicating that real networks are partially balanced raising the question of what is the mechanism preventing the system to be perfectly balanced. Our suggestion is to consider a quartic interaction which dissolves the triad's independence. We use mean field method to study thermal behavior of such systems where the temperature is a parameter that allows the stochastic behavior of agents. We show that under a certain temperature, the symmetry between balanced and imbalanced triads will spontaneously break and we have a discrete phase transition. As consequence stability arises where either similar balanced or imbalanced triads dominate, hence the system obtains two new imbalanced stable states. In this model, the critical temperature depends on the second power of the number of nodes, which was a linear dependence in thermal balance theory. Our simulations are in good agreement with the results obtained by the mean field method.
It is well known that a network structure plays an important role in addressing a collective behavior. In this paper we study a network of firms and corporations for addressing metastable features in an Ising based model. In our model we observe that if in a recession the government imposes a demand shock to stimulate the network, metastable features shape its response. Actually we find that there exists a minimum bound where any demand shock with a size below it is unable to trigger the market out of recession. We then investigate the impact of network characteristics on this minimum bound. We surprisingly observe that in a Watts-Strogatz network, although the minimum bound depends on the average of the degrees, when translated into the language of economics, such a bound is independent of the average degrees. This bound is about 0.44ΔGDP, where ΔGDP is the gap of GDP between recession and expansion. We examine our suggestions for the cases of the United States and the European Union in the recent recession, and compare them with the imposed stimulations. While the stimulation in the US has been above our threshold, in the EU it has been far below our threshold. Beside providing a minimum bound for a successful stimulation, our study on the metastable features suggests that in the time of crisis there is a “golden time passage” in which the minimum bound for successful stimulation can be much lower. Hence, our study strongly suggests stimulations to arise within this time passage.
