We explain how, in the context of a semi-abelian category, the concept of an internal crossed square may be used to set up an intrinsic approach to the Brown-Loday non-abelian tensor product.

To define a minimal mathematical framework for isolating some of the characteristic properties of quantum entanglement, we introduce a generalization of the tensor product of graphs. Inspired by the notion of a density matrix, the…

We study the quantum theory of a simple general relativistic quantum model of two coupled harmonic oscillators and compute the two-point function following a proposal first introduced in the context of loop quantum gravity.

We generalize the translation invariant tensor-valued Minkowski Functionals which are defined on two-dimensional flat space to the unit sphere. We apply them to level sets of random fields. The contours enclosing boundaries of level sets of…

The aim of this paper is to investigate Ennola duality for decomposition of tensor products of irreducible characters of finite general linear groups and finite unitary groups. We prove that Ennola duality holds generically and give a…

We explore finite-field frameworks for quantum theory and quantum computation. The simplest theory, defined over unrestricted finite fields, is unnaturally strong. A second framework employs only finite fields with no solution to x^2+1=0,…

A pedagogical introduction to the theory of a gaussian scalar field which shows firstly, how the whole theory is encapsulated in the Wightman function $W(x,y)=\langle\phi(x)\phi(y)\rangle$ regarded abstractly as a two-index tensor on the…

Tensor networks and quantum computation are two of the most powerful tools for the simulation of quantum many-body systems. Rather than viewing them as competing approaches, here we consider how these two methods can work in tandem. We…

We review some recent results on properties of tensor product and fusion coefficients under complex conjugation of one of the factors. Some of these results have been proven, some others are conjectures awaiting a proof, one of them…

The ability to control and hence to realize a given number of photons is of major interest from a fundamental point of view, e.g. Bell inequalities, photons bunching. In recent years this interest has grown by the so-called the "Second…

In the framework of quantum mechanics over a quadratic extension of the ultrametric field of p-adic numbers, we introduce a notion of tensor product of p-adic Hilbert spaces. To this end, following a standard approach, we first consider the…

Invariant theory is concerned with functions that do not change under the action of a given group. Here we communicate an approach based on tensor networks to represent polynomial local unitary invariants of quantum states. This graphical…

A recent general model of entanglement, [5], that goes much beyond the usual one based on tensor products of vector spaces is further developed here. It is shown that the usual Cartesian product can be seen as two extreme particular…

It is well known that the cohomology of a tensor product is essentially the tensor product of the cohomologies. We look at twisted tensor products, and investigate to which extend this is still true. We give an explicit description of the…
