We consider sudden quenches across quantum phase transitions in the $S=1$ XXZ model starting from the Haldane phase. We demonstrate that dynamical phase transitions may occur during these quenches that are identified by nonanalyticities in…
Geometric representations of cycles in quandle homology theory are given in terms of colored knot diagrams. Abstract knot diagrams are generalized to diagrams with exceptional points which, when colored, correspond to degenerate cycles.…
We introduce and study knotoids. Knotoids are represented by diagrams in a surface which differ from the usual knot diagrams in that the underlying curve is a segment rather than a circle. Knotoid diagrams are considered up to Reidemeister…
We define invariants of unoriented knots and links by enhancing the integral kei counting invariant Phi_X^Z (K) for a finite kei X using representations of the kei algebra, Z_K[X], a quotient of the quandle algebra Z[X] defined by…
This paper gives a new way of characterizing L-space $3$-manifolds by using orderability of quandles. Hence, this answers a question of Adam Clay et al. [Question 1.1 of Canad. Math. Bull. 59 (2016), no. 3, 472-482]. We also investigate…
We develop a higher genus version of Drinfeld associators by means of operad theory. We start by introducing a framed version of rational associators and Grothendieck-Teichm\"uller groups and show that their definition is independent of the…
A cyclically ordered quiver is a quiver endowed with an additional structure of a cyclic ordering of its vertices. This structure, which naturally arises in many important applications, gives rise to new powerful mutation invariants.
We study the signalling structure of higher order quantum maps from an order-theoretic perspective, building on the combinatorial characterization of higher order types by Bisio and Perinotti. We have shown in a previous work…
This note has an experimental nature and contains no new theorems. We introduce certain moves for classical knot diagrams that for all the very many examples we have tested them on give a monotonic complete simplification. A complete…
Braiding operators corresponding to the third Reidemeister move in the theory of knots and links are realized in terms of parametrized unitary matrices for all dimensions. Two distinct classes are considered. Their (non-local) unitary…
We prove that an Alexander quandle of prime order is generated by any pair of distinct elements. Furthermore, we prove for such a quandle that any ordered pair of distinct elements can be sent to any other such pair by an automorphism of…
It is pointed out that quantum states, in general, contain a new kind of orders that cannot be characterized by symmetry. A concept of quantum order is introduced to describe such orders. As two concrete examples, we discussed quantum…
A quantitative model of concurrent interaction is introduced. The basic objects are linear combinations of partial order relations, acted upon by a group of permutations that represents potential non-determinism in synchronisation. This…
Motivated by (perturbative) quantum observables in Lorentzian signature we define a new operad: the operad of causally disjoint disks. In order to describe this operad we use the orthogonal categories of Benini, Schenkel, and Woike and the…
The paper develops a general theory of orderability of quandles with a focus on link quandles of tame links and gives some general constructions of orderable quandles. We prove that knot quandles of many fibered prime knots are…
We develop a general diagrammatic theory of welded graphs, and provide an extension of Satoh's Tube map from welded graphs to ribbon surface-links. As a topological application, we obtain a complete link-homotopy classification of so-called…
We define new invariants of knots by means of quandle colorings and longitudinal information. These invariants can be applied to a tangle embedding problem and recognizing non-classical virtual knots.
The periodic (ordinal) patterns of a map are the permutations realized by the relative order of the points in its periodic orbits. We give a combinatorial characterization of the periodic patterns of an arbitrary signed shift, in terms of…
A quandle is an algebra with two binary operations satisfying three conditions which are related to Reidemeister moves in knot theory. In this paper we introduce the notion of the (canonical) tensor product of a quandle. The tensor product…
We give a detailed exposition of the "vectorized" notation for dealing with quantum operations. This notation is used to highlight the relationships between representations of completely-positive dynamics. Vectorization considerably…
