SO(3)-Irreducible Geometry in Complex Dimension Five and Ternary Generalization of Pauli Exclusion Principle

Abstract

Motivated by a ternary generalization of the Pauli exclusion principle proposed by R. Kerner, we propose a notion of a Z3-skew-symmetric covariant SO(3)-tensor of the third order, consider it as a 3-dimensional matrix, and study the geometry of the 10-dimensional complex space of these tensors. We split this 10-dimensional space into a direct sum of two 5-dimensional subspaces by means of a primitive third-order root of unity q, and in each subspace, there is an irreducible representation of the rotation group SO(3)↪SU(5). We find two SO(3)-invariants of Z3-skew-symmetric tensors: one is the canonical Hermitian metric in five-dimensional complex vector space and the other is a quadratic form denoted by K(z,z). We study the invariant properties of K(z,z) and find its stabilizer. Making use of these invariant properties, we define an SO(3)-irreducible geometric structure on a five-dimensional complex Hermitian manifold. We study a connection on a five-dimensional complex Hermitian manifold with an SO(3)-irreducible geometric structure and find its curvature and torsion.
