We investigate the topological properties of dynamical states evolving on periodic oriented graphs. This evolution, that encodes the scattering processes occurring at the nodes of the graph, is described by a single-step global operator, in…
In this paper, we use a topological quantum field theory (TQFT) to define families of new homology theories of a $2$-dimensional CW complex of a smooth closed surface. The dimensions of these homology groups can be used to count the number…

We outline a theory of symmetry protected topological phases of one-dimensional quantum walks. We assume spectral gaps around the symmetry-distinguished points +1 and -1, in which only discrete eigenvalues are allowed. The phase…

Let $G$ be a graph with $n$ vertices and $\lambda_n(G)$ be the least eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix of $G$. In this paper, we give sharp bounds on the least eigenvalue of graphs without given pathes or cycles and determine the extremal…
Topological phases of matter possess intricate correlation patterns typically probed by entanglement entropies or entanglement spectra. In this work, we propose an alternative approach to assessing topologically induced edge states in free…
We consider a quantum mechanical particle living on a graph and discuss the behaviour of its wavefunction at graph vertices. In addition to the standard (or delta type) boundary conditions with continuous wavefunctions, we investigate two…
We investigate the properties of the zeros of the eigenfunctions on quantum graphs (metric graphs with a Schr\"odinger-type differential operator). Using tools such as scattering approach and eigenvalue interlacing inequalities we derive…
Quantum graphity is a background independent model for emergent locality, spatial geometry and matter. The states of the system correspond to dynamical graphs on N vertices. At high energy, the graph describing the system is highly…
We prove that after an arbitrarily small adjustment of edge lengths, the spectrum of a compact quantum graph with $\delta$-type vertex conditions can be simple. We also show that the eigenfunctions, with the exception of those living…
This review paper summarizes the contents of the talk given by the author at the 8th International Congress of Chinese Mathematicians. Using examples of Schr\"odinger operators on metric graphs, it is shown that a nontrivial topology of the…
Let $\Gamma$ be a simple connect graph on a finite vertex set $V$ and let $A$ be its adjacency matrix. Then $\Gamma$ is said to be \textit{singular} if and only if $0$ is an eigenvalue of $A.$ The \textit{nullity (singularity)} of $\Gamma,$…
This article delves into an analysis of the intrinsic entanglement and separability feature in quantum states as depicted by graph Laplacian. We show that the presence or absence of edges in the graph plays a pivotal role in defining the…
Grid states form a discrete set of mixed quantum states that can be described by graphs. We characterize the entanglement properties of these states and provide methods to evaluate entanglement criteria for grid states in a graphical way.…
Topological quantum states cannot be created from product states with local quantum circuits of constant depth and are in this sense more entangled than topologically trivial states, but how entangled are they? Here we quantify the…
Kauffman and Lomonaco explored the idea of understanding quantum entanglement (the non-local correlation of certain properties of particles) topologically by viewing unitary entangling operators as braiding operators. In the work of G.…
In the dense graph limit theory, the topology of the set of graphs is defined by the distribution of the subgraphs spanned by finite number of random vertices. Vera T. S\'os proposed a question that if we consider only the number of edges…
Chiral symmetry plays an indispensable role in topological classifications as well as in the understanding of the origin of bulk or boundary flat bands. The conventional definition of chiral symmetry refers to the existence of a constant…
