We provide a complete classification of Clifford quantum cellular automata (QCAs) on arbitrary metric spaces and any qudits (of prime or composite dimensions) in terms of algebraic L-theory. Building on the delooping formalism of Pedersen…

We give a moduli interpretation to the quotient of (nondegenerate) binary cubic forms with respect to the natural $\text{GL}_2$-action on the variables. In particular, we show that these $\text{GL}_2$ orbits are in bijection with pairs of…

In this manuscript we consider a special complex torus, denoted $S_{\Delta_{2k}}$ (for each $k \in \mathbb{N},\, k \geq 1$) and called the Dirac spinor torus. It is an Abelian variety of complex dimension $2^{k}$ whose covering space is the…

A unitary representation of a, possibly infinite dimensional, Lie group $G$ is called semibounded if the corresponding operators $i\dd\pi(x)$ from the derived representation are uniformly bounded from above on some non-empty open subset of…

Based on a presentation of $\mathcal{C}_n$ and the help of [GAP], we construct the character table of the Clifford group $\mathcal{C}_n$ for $n=1,2,3$. As an application, we can efficiently decompose the (higher power of) tensor product of…

In this article, we define Weyl transform on second countable type - $I$ locally compact group $G,$ and as an operator on $L^2(G),$ we prove that the Weyl transform is compact when the symbol lies in $L^p(G\times \hat{G})$ with $1\leq p\leq…

We introduce the Clifford entropy, a measure of how close an arbitrary unitary is to a Clifford unitary, which generalizes the stabilizer entropy for states. We show that this quantity vanishes if and only if a unitary is Clifford, is…
