We show that quantum cellular automata naturally form the degree-zero part of a coarse homology theory. The recent result of Ji and Yang that the space of QCA forms an Omega-spectrum in the sense of algebraic topology is a direct…

Finite quantum field theories may be constructed from the most general renormalizable quantum field theory by forbidding, order by order in the perturbative loop expansion, all ultraviolet-divergent renormalizations of the physical…

We give variants of lifting construction, which define new classes of modular forms on the Siegel upper half-space of complex dimension 3 with respect to the full paramodular groups (defining moduli of Abelian surfaces with arbitrary…

We study two categories of cellular automata. First, for any group $G$, we consider the category $\mathcal{CA}(G)$ whose objects are configuration spaces of the form $A^G$, where $A$ is a set, and whose morphisms are cellular automata of…

We study Lie conformal algebroids (LCAd) and their representations using the language of lambda-brackets and Lie conformal algebras. We describe several general constructions, such as the LCAd of conformal derivations CDer(A) of a…

The term Clifford group was introduced in 1998 by D. Gottesmann in his investigation of quantum error-correcting codes. The simplest Clifford group in multiqubit quantum computation is generated by a restricted set of unitary Clifford gates…

We present a compositional algebraic framework to describe the evolution of quantum fields in discretised spacetimes. We show how familiar notions from Relativity and quantum causality can be recovered in a purely order-theoretic way from…

We approach Mackenzie's LA-groupoids from a supergeometric point of view by introducing Q-groupoids, which are groupoid objects in the category of Q-manifolds. There is a faithful functor from the category of LA-groupoids to the category of…

We introduce a $p$-adic analytic analogue of Backelin and Kremnizer's construction of the quantum flag variety of a semisimple algebraic group, when $q$ is not a root of unity and $| q-1|<1$. We then define a category of $\lambda$-twisted…

In this paper we prove isomorphisms between 5 Lie groups (of arbitrary dimension and fixed signatures) in Clifford algebra and classical matrix Lie groups - symplectic, orthogonal and linear groups. Also we obtain isomorphisms of…

It is shown that the generators of Clifford algebras behave as creation and annihilation operators for fermions and bosons. They can create extended objects, such as strings and branes, and can induce curved metric of our spacetime. At a…

The Clifford hierarchy is a nested sequence of sets of quantum gates that can be fault-tolerantly performed using gate teleportation within standard quantum error correction schemes. The groups of Pauli and Clifford gates constitute the…

While the Clifford (geometric) algebra Fourier Transform (CFT) is global, we introduce here the local Clifford (geometric) algebra (GA) wavelet concept. We show how for $n=2,3 (\mod 4)$ continuous $Cl_n$-valued admissible wavelets can be…

The geometric calculus based on Clifford algebra is a very useful tool for geometry and physics. It describes a geometric structure which is much richer than the ordinary geometry of spacetime. A Clifford manifold ($C$-space) consists not…
