In this paper, we show that the ability to switch globally between two 2-local Hamiltonians on n qubits is sufficient for achieving universal unitary dynamics on those n qubits. Of the two Hamiltonians used in the construction, one is…

We investigate the question of unitarity of evolution between hypersurfaces in quantum field theory in curved spacetime from the perspective of the general boundary formulation. Unitarity thus means unitarity of the quantum operator that…

We study quantum field theories which have quantum groups as global internal symmetries. We show that in such theories operators are generically non-local, and should be thought as living at the ends of topological lines. We describe the…

Non-invertible symmetries of a quantum field theory (QFT) are a natural generalization of unitary symmetries, but in which the product of operators does not satisfy a group multiplication law. We show that such symmetry operations on states…

We consider the problem of deciding if a set of quantum one-qudit gates $\mathcal{S}=\{g_1,\ldots,g_n\}\subset G$ is universal, i.e if the closure $\overline{<\mathcal{S}>}$ is equal to $G$, where $G$ is either the special unitary or the…
