In this Thesis we examine the interplay between the encoding of information in quantum systems and their geometrical and topological properties. We first study photonic qubit probes of space-time curvature, showing how gauge-independent…
These lecture notes cover 13 sessions and are presented as an e-print, intended to evolve over time. Quantum invariants do more than distinguish topological objects; they build bridges between topology, algebra, number theory and quantum…
We study how topological crystalline defects--dislocations--reshape the real-space quantum geometric tensor and act as tunable sources of quantum geometry. We show that dislocations strongly enhance the quantum metric, establishing a direct…
Quantum entanglement is a defining signature and resource of quantum theory, but its standard definition presupposes a globally fixed decomposition into subsystems. We develop a geometric framework that detects when such a decomposition…
We introduce the notion of a higher covering diagram in a base $\infty$-category $\mathcal{C}$. The theory of higher covering diagrams in $\mathcal{C}$ will be shown to recover various descent conditions known from the $\infty$-categorical…
We recast quantum entanglement as a cohomological obstruction to reconstructing a global quantum state from locally compatible information. We address this by considering presheaf cohomologies of states and entanglement witnesses.…
This work introduces topological regularization as a framework for handling ultraviolet divergences in quantum field theory, reinterpreting infinities as topological obstructions at spacetime boundaries. Through geometric compactification…
We study global primary decompositions in the category of sheaves on a scheme which are equivariant under the action of an algebraic group. We show that equivariant primary decompositions exist if the group is connected. As main application…
A brief synopsis of recent conceptions and results, the current status and future outlook of our research program of applying sheaf and topos-theoretic ideas to quantum gravity and quantum logic is presented.
We present an abstract unifying framework for interpreting Stone-type dualities; several known dualities are seen to be instances of just one topos-theoretic phenomenon, and new dualities are introduced. In fact, infinitely many new…
Faure and Tsujii recently proposed a new quantization theory for symplectic Anosov diffeomorphisms. It combines prequantization with the study of the Pollicott--Ruelle resonances of an associated transfer operator. We apply this framework…
The main goal of this paper is to establish close relations among sheaves of modules on atomic sites, representations of categories, and discrete representations of topological groups. We characterize sheaves of modules on atomic sites as…
By virtue of harmonic maps on two-dimensional spheres (S$^{2}$), a topological quantization in spacetime is proposed. The discrete character of all physical quantities follows naturally. A Schwarzschild black hole, non-black hole and…
We propose a quantization of coarse spaces and uniform Roe algebras. The objects are based on the quantum relations introduced by N. Weaver and require the choice of a represented von Neumann algebra. In the case of the diagonal inclusion…
We initiate the study of sheaves on Cech closure spaces, providing a new, unified approach to sheaf theory on many of the major classes of spaces of interest to applications: topological spaces, finite simplicial complexes (seen as $T_0$…
Recent advancements in the discipline of quantum algorithms have displayed the importance of the geometry of quantum operators. Given this thrust, this paper develops a rigorous geometric framework to analyze how the Riemannian structure of…
A generalized approach to the quantization of a large class of maps on a torus, i.e. quantization via the von Neumann Equation, is described and a number of issues related to the quantization of model systems are discussed. The approach…
A classical result of topos theory holds that the category of coalgebras for a Cartesian comonad on a topos is again a topos (Kock and Wraith, 1971). It is natural to refine this result to a topos-theoretic setting that includes universes.…
We discuss some ways in which topos theory (a branch of category theory) can be applied to interpretative problems in quantum theory and quantum gravity. In Section 1, we introduce these problems. In Section 2, we introduce topos theory,…
The quantum Lefschetz formula explains how virtual fundamental classes (or structure sheaves) of moduli stacks of stable maps behave when passing from an ambient target scheme to the zero locus of a section. It is only valid under special…
