Previously one of us presented a conjecture [APF-4 Proceedings] to model antiferromagnetism and high temperature superconductivity and their 'unification' by quantum group symmetry rather than the corresponding classical symmetry in view of the critique by Baskaran and Anderson of Zhang's classical SO(5) model. This conjecture was further sharpened, experimental evidence and the important role of 1-d systems [stripes] was emphasized and moreover the relationship between quantum groups and strings via WZWN models were given in [Phys. Lett A272, (2000)]. In this brief note we give and discuss mathematical proof of this conjecture, which completes an important part of this idea, since previously an explicit simple mathematical proof was lacking. Moreover an independent calculation [IC/99/2] which constructs the generators forming SO(5) algebra not only supports our previous conjecture but provides a check on our calculations. It is important to note that in terms of physics that the arbitariness [freedom] of the d-wave factor g 2 (k) is tied to quantum group symmetry whereas in order to recover classical SO(5) one must set it to unity in an adhoc manner. We intuitively expect that this freedom may be related to psuedogap behaviour in cuprates.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
