Recent work on state sum models of quantum gravity in 3 and 4 dimensions has led to interest in the `quantum tetrahedron'. Starting with a classical phase space whose points correspond to geometries of the tetrahedron in R^3, we use…

We prove that any hyper-K\"{a}hler sixfold $K$ of generalized Kummer type has a naturally associated manifold $Y_K$ of $\mathrm{K}3^{[3]}$-type. It is obtained as crepant resolution of the quotient of $K$ by a group of symplectic…

Currently, generalizations of quantum communication protocols from qubits to systems with higher-dimensional state spaces (qudits) typically use mutually unbiased bases (MUB). The construction with maximal number of MUB is known in any…

In this letter, we present an experimental benchmark of operational control methods in quantum information processors extended up to 12 qubits. We implement universal control of this large Hilbert space using two complementary approaches…

By a K3-surface with nine cusps I mean a surface with nine isolated double points A_2, but otherwise smooth, such that its minimal desingularisation is a K3-surface. It is shown, that such a surface admits a cyclic triple cover branched…

A `register' in quantum information processing -- is composition of k quantum systems, `qudits'. The dimensions of Hilbert spaces for one qudit and whole quantum register are d and d^k respectively, but we should have possibility to prepare…

The Hilbert scheme $X^{[3]}$ of length-$3$ subschemes of a smooth projective variety $X$ is known to be smooth and projective. We investigate whether the property of having a multiplicative Chow-Kuenneth decomposition is stable under taking…

A potential quantum information processor is proposed using a fullerene peapod, i.e., an array of the endohedral fullerenes 15N@C60 or 31P@C60 contained in a single walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT). The qubits are encoded in the nuclear spins…

We discuss two new demonstrations of the Bell-Kochen-Specker theorem: a state-independent proof using 14 four-dimensional propositions, based on a suggestion made by Clifton, and a state-specific proof involving 5 propositions on the…

We investigate the geometry of the four qubit systems by means of algebraic geometry and invariant theory, which allows us to interpret certain entangled states as algebraic varieties. More precisely we describe the nullcone, i.e., the set…

An intriguing correspondence between four-qubit systems and simple singularity of type $D_4$ is established. We first consider an algebraic variety $X$ of separable states within the projective Hilbert space…

The quantum entropy at finite temperatures is analyzed by using models for colored quarks making up the physical states of the hadrons. We explicitly work out some special models for the structure of the states of SU(2) and SU(3) relating…

We show how a qubit can be fault-tolerantly encoded in the infinite-dimensional Hilbert space of an optical mode. The scheme is efficient and realizable with present technologies. In fact, it involves two travelling optical modes coupled by…

We consider the transcendental motive of three K3 surfaces $X$ conjectured to have complex multiplication (CM). Under this assumption, we match these to explicit algebraic Hecke quasi-characters $\psi_X$, and CM abelian threefolds $A$. This…

Let $Q_d$ be the $d$-dimensional hypercube and $N=2^d$. We prove that the number of (proper) 4-colorings of $Q_d$ is asymptotically \[6e2^N,\] as was conjectured by Engbers and Galvin in 2012. The proof uses a combination of information…
