Tokens allow to express a semigroup on one set via a semigroup convolution on another set. Therefore tokens are similar to intertwining operators but are more flexible. Keywords: semigroups, hypergroups, tokens, poset, multiplicative functions, polynomial sequence of binomial type, integral kernel, wavelets, refinement equation, special functions, quantum propagator, path integral, quantum computing.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2002-01-02T13:40:46.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "43A20", "05A40", "81S40" ], "keywords": [ "algebraic construction common", "combinatorics", "brief account", "special functions", "refinement equation" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 10, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2002math......1012K" } } }
