Quanta of representations
i. Overview
In SU(5) × U(1) F-theory theory, each 5-bar and 10d representation carries with it the quantum numbers of their U(1) charges and their fluxes.
In this module we define the data structure for these quanta and properties thereof.
ii. Key results
- `Quanta` : The structure containing the quantum numbers of the 5-bar and 10d representations, as well as the charges of the `Hd` and `Hu` particles. - `Quanta.liftCharge` : Lifting a `ChargeSpectrum` to a multiset of `Quanta` which have no chiral exotics and no zero fluxes. - `Quanta.AnomalyCancellation` : The anomaly cancellation conditions on a `Quanta`.

D. Anomaly cancellation conditions
There are two anomaly cancellation conditions in the SU(5)×U(1) model which involve the `U(1)` charges. These are
- `∑ᵢ qᵢ Nᵢ + ∑ₐ qₐ Nₐ = 0` where the first sum is over all 5-bar representations and the second is over all 10d representations. - `∑ᵢ qᵢ² Nᵢ + 3 * ∑ₐ qₐ² Nₐ = 0` where the first sum is over all 5-bar representations and the second is over all 10d representations.
According to arXiv:1401.5084 it is unclear whether this second condition should necessarily be imposed.

Representation of `Quanta` as
This definition provides an instance of the `Repr` typeclass for the `Quanta 𝓩` structure, which defines how to format an element as a string for display. For a given `Quanta` object , its string representation is given by the tuple , where and are the charges of the and particles, denotes the data for the 5-bar representations, and denotes the data for the 10-dimensional representations.
Equality of components implies equality of `Quanta` objects
Let be a type. For any two `Quanta` objects over , if their Higgs charges and are equal ( and ), and their flux data and for the and representations respectively are equal ( and ), then the two objects are equal ().
Equality for is decidable
For any type with decidable equality, the equality between two objects is decidable. This is established by checking the equality of their four constituent fields: the charges and , and the flux data and .
Charge spectrum of a `Quanta` object
This function maps a `Quanta` object (which contains quantum numbers for representations) to its corresponding `ChargeSpectrum`. It extracts the charges and of the Higgs particles and , and determines the finite sets of charges and by extracting all unique charges present in the flux data and associated with the and representations, respectively.

For any `Quanta` object representing the quantum numbers of representations, the charge of the Higgs particle in the corresponding charge spectrum, denoted , is equal to the charge defined in the original object.

Reduction of a `Quanta` object by summing fluxes per charge
The reduction of a `Quanta` object , denoted as , is a new `Quanta` object that preserves the charges of the Higgs fields and from . For the and representations, the respective flux collections and are replaced by their reduced versions, in which all fluxes corresponding to the same charge (or representation) are summed together.
Lifting a charge spectrum to a multiset of quanta without exotics or zero fluxes
Given a charge spectrum of an model, this function constructs a multiset of all possible `Quanta` objects that correspond to that spectrum. Each `Quanta` object in the resulting multiset preserves the charges of the Higgs fields and from the spectrum . The and representation-specific quanta are obtained by lifting the respective charge components and using `FiveQuanta.liftCharge` and `TenQuanta.liftCharge`. The resulting multiset contains only those configurations that do not have chiral exotics and have no zero fluxes.

For a charge spectrum and a quanta object in an F-theory model, is an element of the multiset of lifted quanta if and only if the following conditions are met: 1. The charges of the Higgs fields and in match those in ( and ). 2. The representation quanta of are in the lifted multiset of the charge component . 3. The representation quanta of are in the lifted multiset of the charge component .

If is an element of the multiset , which consists of all valid quantum configurations (fluxes and charges) compatible with the spectrum that have no chiral exotics or zero fluxes, then the charge spectrum derived from is equal to (i.e., ).
Anomaly cancellation coefficients for the particle
For a commutative ring , given an optional charge associated with the particle, the anomaly cancellation coefficients are defined as the pair . If the charge is not provided (represented as `none`), the coefficients are .
`HdAnomalyCoefficient` Commutes with Ring Homomorphisms
Let and be commutative rings, and let be a ring homomorphism. For any optional charge associated with the particle, applying the anomaly coefficient function to the mapped charge (where maps `none` to `none`) is equivalent to applying component-wise to the resulting pair of anomaly coefficients. That is, where is the pair of coefficients in .

Linear Anomaly Cancellation Condition:
In the F-theory model, for a given set of quanta over a commutative ring , the linear anomaly cancellation condition is the proposition that the sum of the charge contributions from the Higgs particles and the matter representations vanishes. Specifically, the condition is given by: where and are the charges of the and particles respectively, the first sum corresponds to the representations with charges and multiplicities (fluxes) , and the second sum corresponds to the representations with charges and multiplicities .
Quartic Anomaly Cancellation Condition:
In the F-theory model, for a given set of quanta over a commutative ring , the quartic anomaly cancellation condition is the proposition that the sum of the quadratic charge contributions from the Higgs particles and the matter representations vanishes. Specifically, the condition is given by: where and are the charges of the and particles, the first sum corresponds to the representations with charges and multiplicities (fluxes) , and the second sum corresponds to the representations with charges and multiplicities .
The linear anomaly cancellation condition is decidable
In the F-theory model, for a given set of quanta defined over a commutative ring with decidable equality, the linear anomaly cancellation condition is a decidable proposition. Specifically, it is decidable whether the sum of charge contributions from the Higgs particles () and the matter representations () vanishes: where and are the charges of the and particles, and the sums represent the contributions from the and representations respectively.
