The topological phases of non-interacting fermions have been classified by their symmetries, culminating in a modern electronic band theory where wavefunction topology can be obtained (in part) from momentum space. Recently, Real Space…
Let $D$ be an oriented link diagram with the set of regions $\operatorname{r}_{D}$. We define a symmetric map (or matrix) $\operatorname{\tau}_{D}\colon\operatorname{r}_{D}\times \operatorname{r}_{D} \to \mathbb{Z}[x]$ that gives rise to an…
Consider a symmetric quantum state on an n-fold product space, that is, the state is invariant under permutations of the n subsystems. We show that, conditioned on the outcomes of an informationally complete measurement applied to a number…
Virtual links were introduced by Kauffman in 1999. We characterize the virtual link invariants that are partition functions of vertex models (as considered by de la Harpe and Jones), both in the real and in the complex case. We show that…
We study the SU(2) Witten--Reshetikhin--Turaev invariant for the Seifert fibered homology spheres with M-exceptional fibers. We show that the WRT invariant can be written in terms of (differential of) the Eichler integrals of modular forms…
The category of finite dimensional module over the quantum superalgebra U_q(sl(2|1)) is not semi-simple and the quantum dimension of a generic U_q(sl(2|1))-module vanishes. This vanishing happens for any value of q (even when q is not a…
We prove exact complexity dichotomies for two quantum invariants of closed oriented three-manifolds, with the categorical data fixed. For a modular category $\mathcal{C}$, computing the Reshetikhin--Turaev invariant $Z_{\mathcal{C}}(M)$…
Entangling properties of a mixed 2-qubit system can be described by the local homogeneous unitary invariant polynomials in elements of the density matrix. The structure of the corresponding invariant polynomial ring for the special subclass…
We study the quantum mechanics of a system of topologically interacting particles in 2+1 dimensions, which is described by coupling the particles to a Chern-Simons gauge field of an inhomogeneous group. Analysis of the phase space shows…
In this paper we define a new state sum based on the regions defined by tangles on a surface which is an oriented closed surface with a finite number of open holes drilled. From this state sum we obtain an invariant of regular isotopy for…
Quantum Markov networks are a generalization of quantum Markov chains to arbitrary graphs. They provide a powerful classification of correlations in quantum many-body systems---complementing the area law at finite temperature---and are…
We introduce an Alexander polynomial for MOY graphs. For a framed trivalent MOY graph $\mathbb{G}$, we refine the construction and obtain a framed ambient isotopy invariant $\Delta_{(\mathbb{G},c)}(t)$. The invariant $\Delta_{(\mathbb{G},…
Majorana stars, the $2S$ spin coherent states that are orthogonal to a spin-$S$ state, offer an elegant method to visualize quantum states, disclosing their intrinsic symmetries. These states are naturally described by the corresponding…
We consider a net of *-algebras, locally around any point of observation, equipped with a natural partial order related to the isotony property. Assuming the underlying manifold of the net to be a differentiable, this net shall be…
We give some Korovkin-type theorems on convergence and estimates of rates of approximations of nets of functions, satisfying suitable axioms, whose particular cases are filter/ideal convergence, almost convergence and triangular…
We study webs in quantum type $C$, focusing on the rank three case. We define a linear pivotal category $\mathbf{Web}(\mathfrak{sp}_6)$ diagrammatically by generators and relations, and conjecture that it is equivalent to the category…
We introduce the notion of a relative spherical category. We prove that such a category gives rise to the generalized Kashaev and Turaev-Viro-type 3-manifold invariants defined in arXiv:1008.3103 and arXiv:0910.1624, respectively. In this…
We use the machinery of categorified Jones-Wenzl projectors to construct a categorification of a type A Reshetikhin-Turaev invariant of oriented framed tangles where each strand is labeled by an arbitrary finite-dimensional representation.…
We compute Joyce's (arXiv:2111.04694) enumerative invariants $[\mathcal{M}^{\mathrm{ss}}_{(r,d)}]_{\mathrm{inv}}$ for semistable rank $r$ degree $d$ coherent sheaves on a complex projective curve. These invariants are a generalization of…
Quantization of diffeomorphism invariant theories of connections is studied. A solutions of the diffeomorphism constraints is found. The space of solutions is equipped with an inner product that is shown to satisfy the physical reality…
