The aim of this thesis is to present an extension to the string graphs of Dixon, Duncan and Kissinger that allows the finite representation of certain infinite families of graphs and graph rewrite rules, and to demonstrate that a logic can…
We give a procedure to construct (quasi-)trisection diagrams for closed (pseudo-)manifolds generated by colored tensor models without restrictions on the number of simplices in the triangulation, therefore generalizing previous works in the…
We generalize the notion of parallel transport along paths for abelian bundles to parallel transport along surfaces for abelian gerbes using an embedded Topological Quantum Field Theory (TQFT) approach. We show both for bundles and gerbes…
The color code is both an interesting example of an exactly solved topologically ordered phase of matter and also among the most promising candidate models to realize fault-tolerant quantum computation with minimal resource overhead. The…
The Coupling from the Past (CFTP) paradigm is a canonical method for perfect sampling. For uniform sampling of proper $q$-colorings in graphs with maximum degree $\Delta$, the bounding chains of Huber (STOC 1998) provide a systematic…
For $\mathbb Q$-factorial klt algebraically integrable adjoint foliated structures, we prove the cone theorem, the contraction theorem, and the existence of flips. Therefore, we deduce the existence of the minimal model program for such…
One of the most important and challenging problems in coding theory is to determine the optimal values of the parameters of a linear code and to explicitly construct codes with optimal parameters, or as close to the optimal values as…
Recent work explores the candidate phases of the 4d adjoint quantum chromodynamics (QCD$_4$) with an SU(2) gauge group and two massless adjoint Weyl fermions. Both Cordova-Dumitrescu and Bi-Senthil propose possible low energy 4d topological…
We show that a topological quantum computer based on the evaluation of a Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev TQFT invariant of knots can always be arranged so that the knot diagrams with which one computes are diagrams of hyperbolic knots. The…
We investigate a natural subfamily of twisted linearized Reed--Solomon (TLRS) codes in the sum-rank metric, where the twist is applied only to the constant term. We establish a simple necessary and sufficient condition for these codes to be…
A few years ago, by means of first-principles calculations, Enyashin et al.(2011) proposed several novel monolayers of carbon containing rings other than hexagons. One of those monolayers containing tetragons and octagons was investigated…
A detailed study of the charge spectrum of three dimensional Abelian Topological Massive Gauge Theory (TMGT) is given. When this theory is defined on a manifold with two disconnected boundaries there are induced chiral Conformal Field…
We construct a new class of three-dimensional topological quantum field theories (3d TQFTs) by considering generalized Argyres-Douglas theories on $S^1 \times M_3$ with a non-trivial holonomy of a discrete global symmetry along the $S^1$.…
We introduce a class of generalized tube algebras which describe how finite, non-invertible global symmetries of bosonic 1+1d QFTs act on operators which sit at the intersection point of a collection of boundaries and interfaces. We develop…
Tetravalent graphs admitting a half-arc-transitive subgroup of automorphisms, that is a subgroup acting transitively on its vertices and its edges but not on its arcs, are investigated. One of the most fruitful approaches for the study of…
This is an investigation of the role of shuffling and concatenating in the theory of graph drawing. A simple syntactic description of these and related operations is proved complete in the context of finite partial orders, as general as…
We generalize the notion of quasielliptic curves, which have infinitesimal symmetries and exist only in characteristic two and three, to a remarkable hierarchy of regular curves having infinitesimal symmetries, defined in all…
We establish a relation between fully extended $2$-dimensional TQFTs and recognisable weighted formal languages, rational biprefix codes and lattice TFTs. We show the equivalence of $2D$ closed TFTs and rational exchangeable series and we…
We first revisit the construction of Quinn's finite total homotopy TQFT, which depends on the choice of a homotopy finite space, $\boldsymbol{B}$. This constitutes a vast generalisation of the Dijkgraaf-Witten TQFT, with a trivial cocycle,…
In order to study graded Frobenius algebras from a ring theoretical perspective, we introduce graded quasi-Frobenius rings, graded Frobenius rings and a shift-version of the latter ones, and we investigate the structure and representations…
