Topological quantum states of matter, both Abelian and non-Abelian, are characterized by excitations whose wavefunctions undergo non-trivial statistical transformations as one excitation is moved (braided) around another. Topological…
We discuss the statistical mechanics of a two-dimensional gas of non-Abelian Chern-Simons particles which obey the non-Abelian braid statistics. The second virial coefficient is evaluated in the framework of the non-Abelian Chern-Simons…
A symmetry in quantum mechanics is described by the projective representations of a Lie symmetry group that transforms between physical quantum states such that the square of the modulus of the states is invariant. The Heisenberg…
We construct a 3-variable enrichment of the Lawrence-Krammer-Bigelow (LKB) representation of the braid groups, which is the limit of a pro-nilpotent tower of representations having the original LKB representation as its bottom layer. We…
A new method for deriving universal \v{R} matrices from braid group representation is discussed. In this case, universal \v{R} operators can be defined and expressed in terms of products of braid group generators. The advantage of this…
We introduce and describe in second quantization a family of particle species with \(p=2,3,\dots\) exclusion and \(\theta=2\pi/p\) exchange statistics. We call these anyons Fock parafermions, because they are the particles naturally…
It is shown how to introduce a geometric description of the algebraic approach to the non-relativistic quantum mechanics. It turns out that the GNS representation provides not only symplectic but also Hermitian realization of a `quantum…
Recently, Majorana fermions (MFs) have attracted intensive attention because of their possible non-Abelian statistics. This paper points out an approach to verify the non-Abelian statistics of MFs in topological superconductors. We…
By explicitly identifying a basis valid for any number of electrons, we demonstrate that simple multi-quasihole wavefunctions for the $\nu=1/2$ Pfaffian paired Hall state exhibit an exponential degeneracy at fixed positions. Indeed, we…
In [1] we have constructed a [n+1/2]+1 parameters family of irreducible representations of the Braid group B_3 in arbitrary dimension using a $q-$deformation of the Pascal triangle. This construction extends in particular results by S.P.…
Henstock and Macbeath asked in 1953 whether the Brunn-Minkowski inequality can be generalized to nonabelian locally compact groups; questions along the same line were also asked by Hrushovski, McCrudden, and Tao. We obtain here such an…
Non-commutative quantum field theories and their global quantum group symmetries provide an intriguing attempt to go beyond the realm of standard local quantum field theory. A common feature of these models is that the quantum group…
Symmetry-protected non-Abelian (SPNA) statistics opens new frontiers in quantum statistics and enriches the schemes for topological quantum computing. In this work, we propose a new paradigm of SPNA statistics in one-dimensional correlated…
We study the problem of determining if the braid group representations obtained from quantum groups of types $E, F$ and $G$ at roots of unity have infinite image or not. In particular we show that when the fusion categories associated with…
A non-abelian generalisation of a birational representation of affine Weyl groups and their application to the discrete dynamical systems is presented. By using this generalisation, non-commutative analogs for the discrete systems of…
It is well known that at distances shorter than Planck length, no length measurements are possible. The Volovich hypothesis asserts that at sub-Planckian distances and times, spacetime itself has a non-Archimedean geometry. We discuss the…
Drinfeld orbifold algebras are a type of deformation of skew group algebras generalizing graded Hecke algebras of interest in representation theory, algebraic combinatorics, and noncommutative geometry. In this article, we classify all…
We study a possibility to define the (braided) comultiplication for the GLq(N)-covariant differential complexes on some quantum spaces. We discover such `differential bialgebras' (and Hopf algebras) on the bosonic and fermionic quantum…
Qubits in topological quantum computation are built from non-Abelian anyons. Adiabatic braiding of anyons is exploited as topologically protected logical gate operations. Thus, the adiabaticity upon which the notion of quantum statistics is…
We consider the irreducible representations each of dimension 2 of the necklace braid group $\mathcal{NB}_n$ ($n=2,3,4$). We then consider the tensor product of the representations of $\mathcal{NB}_n$ ($n=2,3,4$) and determine necessary and…
