In this paper we construct twisted Real quasi-elliptic cohomology as the twisted KR-theory of loop groupoids. The theory systematically incorporates loop rotation and reflection. After establishing basic properties of the theory, we…
We introduce a new graph invariant that measures fractional covering of a graph by cuts. Besides being interesting in its own right, it is useful for study of homomorphisms and tension-continuous mappings. We study the relations with…
We construct an action of 3-cobordisms on the finite dimensional Schr\"odinger representations of the Heisenberg group by Lagrangian correspondences. In addition, we review the construction of the abelian Topological Quantum Field Theory…
We specialise the construction of orbifold graph TQFTs introduced in Carqueville et al., arXiv:2101.02482 to Reshetikhin-Turaev defect TQFTs. We explain that the modular fusion category ${\mathcal{C}}_{\mathcal{A}}$ constructed in…
This paper contains three related groupings of results. First, we consider a new notion of an admissible skein module of a surface associated to an ideal in a (non-semisimple) pivotal category. Second, we introduce the notion of a chromatic…
Cliquewidth is a dense analogue of treewidth. It can be deduced from recent results by Hickingbotham [arXiv:2501.10840] and Nguyen, Scott, and Seymour [arXiv:2501.09839] that graphs of bounded cliquewidth are quasi-isometric to graphs of…
We undertake a systematic study of the approximation properties of the topological and measurable versions of the coarse boundary groupoid associated to a sequence of finite graphs of bounded degree. On the topological side, we prove that…
After two papers on weak cubical categories and {\it collarable} cospans, respectively, we put things together and construct a {\it weak} cubical category of cubical {\it collared} cospans of topological spaces. We also build a second…
We construct a family of 3d quantum field theories $\mathcal T_{n,k}^A$ that conjecturally provide a physical realization -- and derived generalization -- of non-semisimple mathematical TQFT's based on the modules for the quantum group…
Two-level quantum systems, qubits, are not the only basis for quantum computation. Advantages exist in using qudits, d-level quantum systems, as the basic carrier of quantum information. We show that color codes, a class of topological…
We prove a number of results on the \'etale cohomology of rigid analytic varieties over $p$-adic non-archimedean local fields. Among other things, we establish bounds for Frobenius eigenvalues, show a strong version of Grothendieck's local…
Various results ensure the existence of large complete bipartite graphs in properly colored graphs when some condition related to a topological lower bound on the chromatic number is satisfied. We generalize three theorems of this kind,…
We show that the half-perimeter generating functions for the number of Wicketed and Gated Ferrers diagrams is algebraic. Furthermore, the generating function of the Wicketed Ferrers diagrams is closely related to the generating function of…
A self-contained account of the theory of structure trees for edge cuts in networks is given. Applications include a generalisation of the Max-Flow Min-Cut Theorem to infinite networks and a short proof of a conjecture of Kropholler. This…
We show that unrolled quantum groups at odd roots of unity give rise to relative modular categories. These are the main building blocks for the construction of 1+1+1-TQFTs extending CGP invariants, which are non-semisimple quantum…
We consider a cobordism category whose morphisms are punctured connect sums of $S^1 \times S^2$'s (wormhole spaces) with embedded admissibly colored banded trivalent graphs. We define a TQFT on this cobordism category over the field of…
We show how the theory of affine geometries over the ring ${\mathbb Z}/\langle q - 1\rangle$ can be used to understand the properties of toric and generalized toric codes over ${\mathbb F}_q$. The minimum distance of these codes is strongly…
Reshetikhin-Turaev (a.k.a. Chern-Simons) TQFT is a functor that associates vector spaces to two-dimensional genus g surfaces and linear operators to automorphisms of surfaces. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate that there exists a…
In this paper, firstly, we study decoding of a general class of twisted generalized Reed-Solomon (TGRS) codes and provide a precise characterization of the key equation for TGRS codes and propose a decoding algorithm. Secondly, we further…
We construct a PROP which encodes 2D-TQFTs with a grading. This defines a graded Frobenius algebra as algebras over this PROP. We also give a description of graded Frobenius algebras in terms of maps and relations. This structure naturally…
