Clifford algebras are used for definition of spinors. Because of using spin-1/2 systems as an adequate model of quantum bit, a relation of the algebras with quantum information science has physical reasons. But there are simple mathematical…
Anyons are quasiparticles in two-dimensional systems that show statistical properties very distinct from those of bosons or fermions. While their isolated observation has not yet been achieved, here we perform a quantum simulation of anyons…

We present the teleportation and superdense coding protocols for a family of anyon theories coming from Tambara-Yamagami categories, of which the lowest rank theories describe Ising anyons. In contrast to the usual approach to anyonic…
To the working physicist, anyon theory is meant to describe certain quasi-particle excitations occurring in two dimensional topologically ordered systems. A typical calculation using this theory will involve operations such as $\otimes$ to…
In topological quantum computation, quantum information is stored in states which are intrinsically protected from decoherence, and quantum gates are carried out by dragging particle-like excitations (quasiparticles) around one another in…
The principles of the theory of quantum groups are reviewed from the point of view of the possibility of their use for deformations of symmetries in physical models. The R-matrix approach to the theory of quantum groups is discussed in…
We realize the physical N-anyon Hilbert spaces, introduced previously via unitary representations of the group of diffeomorphisms of the plane, as N-fold braided-symmetric tensor products of the 1-particle Hilbert space. This perspective…
If a large Quantum Computer (QC) existed today, what type of physical problems could we efficiently simulate on it that we could not simulate on a classical Turing machine? In this paper we argue that a QC could solve some relevant physical…
This article surveys the application of the representation theory of loop groups to simple models in quantum field theory and to certain integrable systems. The common thread in the discussion is the construction of quantum fields using…
