Quantum exotic PDE's (Q1940719)

The goal of the paper is to further develop Prástaro's geometric theory of quantum PDE's, by considering three different subjects in this theory. The first is a way to characterize quantum PDE's by means of suitable Heyting algebras. Nowadays these algebraic structures are considered important in order to characterize quantum logics and quantum topoi (see [\textit{P. T. Johnstone}, Sketches of an elephant. A topos theory compendium. I. Oxford: Clarendon Press (2002; Zbl 1071.18001); II. (2002; Zbl 1071.18002)]). The author proves that to any quantum PDE can be associated a Heyting algebra, naturally arising from the algebraic topologic structure of the PDE's and that encodes its integral bordism group. This is directly related to the structure of its global solutions. This allows us to recognize a new inside in the concept of quantum logic for micro-worlds. Another aspect that the author considers is the extension of the category \(\mathcal{D}\) of quantum manifolds, or \(\mathcal{D}_S\) of quantum supermanifolds, to the ones \(\mathcal{D}_{\text{hyper}}\) of \textit{quantum hypercomplex manifolds}. These generalizations are obtained by extending a quantum algebra \(A\), in the sense of [\textit{A. Prástaro}, Quantized partial differential equations. Singapore: World Scientific (2004; Zbl 1067.58022)], by means of Cayley-Dickson algebras. In this way, one obtains a new category of noncommutative manifolds, that are useful in some geometric and physical applications. In facts, there are some fashioned research lines, concerning classical superstrings and classical super-2-branes, where one handles with algebras belonging to some term in the Cayley-Dickson construction. Thus it is interesting to emphasize that Prástaro's geometric theory of quantum PDE's can be directly applied to PDE's for such quantum hypercomplex manifolds. This allows us to encode quantum micro-worlds, by a general theory that goes beyond the classical simple description of classical extended objects, and solves the problem of their quantization. Theorems of existence for local and global solutions are obtained for (singular) PDE's in this new category of noncommutative manifolds. The extension of the concept of exotic PDE's, recently introduced by the author [Commun. Math. Anal. 10, No. 1, 64--81 (2011; Zbl 1276.55008)], has been extended to quantum PDE's. Then a smooth quantum version of the quantum (generalized) Poincaré conjecture is given. These results extend ones for the quantum (generalized) Poincaré conjecture.
