The "line-in-cubic" property for a linear solution SS

#LineInCubic

For a vector of charges SQ2(n+1)S \in \mathbb{Q}^{2(n+1)} satisfying the linear anomaly cancellation condition xi=0\sum x_i = 0, the property `LineInCubic` holds if for every decomposition of SS into the form P(g)+P(f)P(g) + P'(f) (where P(g)P(g) and P(f)P'(f) are vectors defined by the basis of the linear solution space), any linear combination aP(g)+bP(f)a P(g) + b P'(f) with a,bQa, b \in \mathbb{Q} also satisfies the cubic anomaly cancellation condition: \[ \sum_{i=1}^{2(n+1)} (a P(g) + b P'(f))_i^3 = 0 \] In other words, the entire line spanned by the basis components of SS lies within the cubic hypersurface defined by the gauge anomaly.

theorem

Expansion of the `LineInCubic` property for even charge vectors

#lineInCubic_expand

In a pure U(1)U(1) gauge theory with 2(n+1)2(n+1) Weyl fermions, let SS be a vector of rational charges satisfying the linear anomaly cancellation condition Si=0\sum S_i = 0. Suppose SS satisfies the `LineInCubic` property, which means that for any decomposition of SS into the form P(g)+P(f)P(g) + P^\prime(f) (where g:{0,,n}Qg: \{0, \dots, n\} \to \mathbb{Q} and f:{0,,n1}Qf: \{0, \dots, n-1\} \to \mathbb{Q} are vectors from the basis of linear solutions), any linear combination aP(g)+bP(f)a P(g) + b P^\prime(f) for a,bQa, b \in \mathbb{Q} also satisfies the cubic anomaly cancellation condition. Then, for any such decomposition and any a,bQa, b \in \mathbb{Q}, the following identity holds: \[ 3ab \left( a \mathcal{A}(P(g), P(g), P^\prime(f)) + b \mathcal{A}(P^\prime(f), P^\prime(f), P(g)) \right) = 0 \] where A(x,y,z)=i=12(n+1)xiyizi\mathcal{A}(x, y, z) = \sum_{i=1}^{2(n+1)} x_i y_i z_i is the symmetric trilinear form associated with the cubic anomaly.

#line_in_cubic_P_P_P!

In a pure U(1)U(1) gauge theory with 2(n+1)2(n+1) Weyl fermions, let SS be a vector of rational charges that satisfies the linear anomaly cancellation condition Si=0\sum S_i = 0. Suppose SS satisfies the `LineInCubic` property, which implies that for any decomposition of SS into basis vectors P(g)P(g) and P(f)P'(f) (where g:{0,,n}Qg: \{0, \dots, n\} \to \mathbb{Q} and f:{0,,n1}Qf: \{0, \dots, n-1\} \to \mathbb{Q}), every point on the line spanned by these vectors satisfies the cubic anomaly cancellation condition. Then, for any such decomposition S=P(g)+P(f)S = P(g) + P'(f), the symmetric trilinear form A\mathcal{A} evaluated at (P(g),P(g),P(f))(P(g), P(g), P'(f)) is zero: \[ \mathcal{A}(P(g), P(g), P'(f)) = 0 \] where A(x,y,z)=i=12(n+1)xiyizi\mathcal{A}(x, y, z) = \sum_{i=1}^{2(n+1)} x_i y_i z_i.

definition

Every permutation of SS satisfies the `LineInCubic` property

#LineInCubicPerm

For a vector of rational charges SQ2(n+1)S \in \mathbb{Q}^{2(n+1)} satisfying the linear anomaly cancellation condition Si=0\sum S_i = 0 in a pure U(1)U(1) theory with 2(n+1)2(n+1) fermions, the property `LineInCubicPerm` holds if, for every permutation MS2(n+1)M \in S_{2(n+1)} of the charges, the permuted vector M(S)M(S) satisfies the `LineInCubic` property. The `LineInCubic` property signifies that the entire line spanned by the basis decomposition of the vector (into components P(g)P(g) and P(f)P'(f)) lies within the cubic hypersurface defined by the gauge anomaly cancellation condition xi3=0\sum x_i^3 = 0.

theorem

If SS satisfies the `LineInCubicPerm` property, which means that every permutation of the components of SS satisfies the `LineInCubic` property, then SS itself satisfies the `LineInCubic` property.

theorem

#lineInCubicPerm_permute

Consider a pure U(1)U(1) gauge theory with 2(n+1)2(n+1) fermions, where nNn \in \mathbb{N}.

Suppose SS satisfies the property `LineInCubicPerm`, which means that for every permutation MM in the symmetric group S2(n+1)S_{2(n+1)}, the permuted vector M(S)M(S) satisfies the `LineInCubic` property (where the entire line spanned by the basis decomposition of the vector lies within the cubic hypersurface xi3=0\sum x_i^3 = 0). Then, for any permutation MS2(n+1)M' \in S_{2(n+1)}, the permuted vector M(S)M'(S) also satisfies the `LineInCubicPerm` property.

Suppose SS satisfies the property `LineInCubicPerm`, which means that for every permutation MM in the symmetric group S2(n+1)S_{2(n+1)}, the permuted vector M(S)M(S) satisfies the `LineInCubic` property (where the entire line spanned by the basis decomposition of the vector lies within the cubic hypersurface xi3=0\sum x_i^3 = 0). For any j{0,,n1}j \in \{0, \dots, n-1\} and any decomposition of SS into the basis components S=P(g)+P(f)S = P(g) + P'(f), where g:{0,,n}Qg: \{0, \dots, n\} \to \mathbb{Q} and f:{0,,n1}Qf: \{0, \dots, n-1\} \to \mathbb{Q}, the following identity holds: (Si2j+1Si2j)A(P(g),P(g),Bj)=0(S_{i_{2j+1}} - S_{i_{2j}}) \cdot \mathcal{A}(P(g), P(g), B'_j) = 0 where Si2jS_{i_{2j}} and Si2j+1S_{i_{2j+1}} are the charges at the indices `evenShiftFst j` and `evenShiftSnd j`, BjB'_j is the jj-th basis charge vector `basis!AsCharges j`, and A(x,y,z)=i=12(n+1)xiyizi\mathcal{A}(x, y, z) = \sum_{i=1}^{2(n+1)} x_i y_i z_i is the symmetric trilinear form associated with the cubic anomaly.

For the basis charge vector BnB_n associated with the last index, the following identity holds: A(P(f),P(f),Bn)=(Si1+Si2)(2Si3+Si1+Si2)\mathcal{A}(P(f), P(f), B_n) = -(S_{i_1} + S_{i_2})(2S_{i_3} + S_{i_1} + S_{i_2}) where Si1S_{i_1} and Si2S_{i_2} are the charges at the indices `evenShiftFst` and `evenShiftSnd` for the last basis index, and Si3S_{i_3} is the charge at the index `evenShiftLast`.

#lineInCubicPerm_last_perm

Consider a pure U(1)U(1) gauge theory with 2n+42n+4 fermions (where nNn \in \mathbb{N}). Let S=(S0,S1,,S2n+3)Q2n+4S = (S_0, S_1, \dots, S_{2n+3}) \in \mathbb{Q}^{2n+4} be a vector of rational charges that satisfies the linear anomaly cancellation condition i=02n+3Si=0\sum_{i=0}^{2n+3} S_i = 0. Suppose SS satisfies the `LineInCubicPerm` property, meaning that for every permutation σS2n+4\sigma \in S_{2n+4}, the permuted vector σ(S)\sigma(S) has the property that the line passing through it and the planes formed by the basis of linear solutions lies entirely within the cubic hypersurface xi3=0\sum x_i^3 = 0. Then SS satisfies the `LineInPlaneCond` property: for every triple of pairwise distinct indices i,j,k{0,,2n+3}i, j, k \in \{0, \dots, 2n+3\}, the components of SS satisfy at least one of the following: Si=Sj,Si=Sj,or2Sk+Si+Sj=0.S_i = S_j, \quad S_i = -S_j, \quad \text{or} \quad 2S_k + S_i + S_j = 0.

theorem

#lineInCubicPerm_constAbs

Consider a pure U(1)U(1) gauge theory with N=2n+4N = 2n+4 fermions (where nNn \in \mathbb{N}). Let S=(S0,S1,,SN1)QNS = (S_0, S_1, \dots, S_{N-1}) \in \mathbb{Q}^N be a solution to the anomaly cancellation conditions, such that i=0N1Si=0\sum_{i=0}^{N-1} S_i = 0 and i=0N1Si3=0\sum_{i=0}^{N-1} S_i^3 = 0. If SS satisfies the `LineInCubicPerm` property—meaning that for every permutation σ\sigma of the indices, the permuted vector σ(S)\sigma(S) has the property that the line passing through it and the planes spanned by the basis of linear solutions lies entirely within the cubic hypersurface defined by xi3=0\sum x_i^3 = 0—then the solution SS has constant absolute value, i.e., Si=Sj|S_i| = |S_j| for all i,j{0,,N1}i, j \in \{0, \dots, N-1\}.

theorem

For 2n+42n+4 fermions, `LineInCubicPerm` implies vector-like charges

#lineInCubicPerm_vectorLike

Consider a pure U(1)U(1) gauge theory with N=2n+4N = 2n+4 fermions (where nNn \in \mathbb{N}). Let S=(S0,S1,,SN1)QNS = (S_0, S_1, \dots, S_{N-1}) \in \mathbb{Q}^N be a solution to the anomaly cancellation conditions, satisfying i=0N1Si=0\sum_{i=0}^{N-1} S_i = 0 and i=0N1Si3=0\sum_{i=0}^{N-1} S_i^3 = 0. If SS satisfies the `LineInCubicPerm` property—meaning that for every permutation σ\sigma of the indices, the permuted vector σ(S)\sigma(S) has the property that the line through it and the planes spanned by the basis of linear solutions lies entirely within the cubic hypersurface defined by the gauge anomaly—then the solution SS is vector-like. Specifically, if the charges are sorted in non-decreasing order as x0x1xN1x_0 \le x_1 \le \dots \le x_{N-1}, they satisfy xi=x(N/2)+ix_i = -x_{(N/2)+i} for all i{0,1,,(N/2)1}i \in \{0, 1, \dots, (N/2)-1\}.

theorem

If SS satisfies the `LineInCubicPerm` property—meaning that for every permutation σSN\sigma \in S_N, the line passing through the permuted solution σ(S)\sigma(S) and the planes formed by the basis of linear solutions lies entirely within the cubic hypersurface xi3=0\sum x_i^3 = 0—then there exists a permutation MSNM \in S_N such that the permuted charge vector M(S)M(S) lies in the subspace spanned by the first part of the basis of linear solutions.
