Tensor networks provide a powerful tool for studying many-body quantum systems, particularly making quantum simulations more efficient. In this article, we construct a tensor network representation of the spin network states, which…
We define and investigate a quantisation of null hypersurfaces in the context of loop quantum gravity on a fixed graph. The main tool we use is the parametrisation of the theory in terms of twistors, which has already proved useful in…
We briefly review models of relativistic particles with spin. Departing from the oldest attempts to describe the spin within the lagrangian framework we pass through various non supersymmetric models. Then the component and superfield…
We describe classical top-like integrable systems arising from the quantum exchange relations and corresponding Sklyanin algebras. The Lax operator is expressed in terms of the quantum non-dynamical $R$-matrix even at the classical level,…
We study the interplay between double cross sum decompositions of a given Lie algebra and classical r-matrices for its semidual. For a class of Lie algebras which can be obtained by a process of generalised complexification we derive an…
We systematise and develop a graphical approach to the investigations of quantum integrable vertex statistical models and the corresponding quantum spin chains. The graphical forms of the unitarity and various crossing relations are…
Treating the infinite-dimensional Hilbert space of non-abelian gauge theories is an outstanding challenge for classical and quantum simulations. Here, we introduce $q$-deformed Kogut-Susskind lattice gauge theories, obtained by deforming…
I discuss the role played by the spin-network basis and recoupling theory (in its graphical tangle-theoretic formulation) and their use for performing explicit calculations in loop quantum gravity. In particular, I show that recoupling…
In this note, we provide a unifying framework to investigate the computational complexity of classical spin models and give the full classification on spin models in terms of system dimensions, randomness, external magnetic fields and types…
In this article the study of the Prime Graph Question for the integral group ring of almost simple groups which have an order divisible by exactly $4$ different primes is continued. We provide more details on the recently developed "lattice…
In this paper we obtain a 2+2 double null Hamiltonian description of General Relativity using only the (complex) SO(3) connection and the components of the complex densitised self-dual bivectors. We carry out the general canonical analysis…
We present a systematic method to classify the four-level system using $SU(4)$ symmetry as the basis group. It is shown that this symmetry allows three dipole transitions which eventually leads to six possible configurations of the…
Let $K$ be a number field with ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_K$. We describe and classify finite, flat, and linearly reductive subgroup schemes of $\mathrm{SL}_2$ over $\mathrm{Spec}\:\mathcal{O}_K$. We also establish finiteness results for…
There are exactly three finite subgroups of SU(2) that act irreducibly in the spin 1 representation, namely the binary tetrahedral, binary octahedral and binary icosahedral groups. In previous papers I have shown how the binary tetrahedral…
The main goal is to classify 4-dimensional real Lie algebras $\g$ which admit a para-hypercomplex structure. This is a step toward the classification of Lie groups admitting the corresponding left-invariant structure and therefore…
In this work we show that a relativistic spinning particle can be described at the classical and the quantum level as being composed of two physical constituents which are entangled and separated by a fixed distance. This bilocal model for…
Extra dimensions are introduced: 3 in Classical Mechanics and 6 in Relativistic Mechanics, which represent orientations, resulting from rotations, of a particle, described by quaternions, and leading to a 7-dimensional, respectively…
The group gradings on the symmetric composition algebras over arbitrary fields are classified. Applications of this result to gradings on the exceptional simple Lie algebras are considered too.
Recently, Cohen and Glashow pointed out that all known experimental tests of relativistic kinematics are consistent with invariance of physics under the four-parameter subgroup Sim(2) of the Lorentz group. The massive one-particle…
We investigate the quantum area operator in the loop approach based on the Lorentz covariant hamiltonian formulation of general relativity. We show that there exists a two-parameter family of Lorentz connections giving rise to Wilson lines…
