We compute the mapping class group action on cycles on the configuration space of the torus with one puncture, with coefficients in a local system arising in conformal field theory. This action commutes with the topological action of the…
In this series, we investigate quantum ergodicity at small scales for linear hyperbolic maps of the torus ("cat maps'"). In Part II of the series, we construct quasimodes that are quantum ergodic but are not equidistributed at the…
We discuss the classical mechanics on the Grassmannian and the Disc modeled on the ideal L^(2,\infty)(H). We apply methods of geometric quantization to these systems. Their relation to a flat symplectic space is also discussed.
Geometrically, quantum mechanics is defined by a complex line bundle $L_\hbar$ over the classical particle phase space $T^*{R}^3\cong{R}^6$ with coordinates $x^a$ and momenta $p_a$, $a,...=1,2,3$. This quantum bundle $L_\hbar$ is endowed…
Building on prior work, a generally covariant reformulation of free scalar field theory on the flat Lorentzian cylinder is quantized using Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG) type `polymer' representations. This quantization of the {\em continuum}…
Quantum mechanics is essentially a statistical theory. Classical mechanics, however, is usually not viewed as being inherently statistical. Nevertheless, the latter can also be formulated statistically. Furthermore, a statistical…
We study measurement-based quantum computation (MQC) using as quantum resource the planar code state on a two-dimensional square lattice (planar analogue of the toric code). It is shown that MQC with the planar code state can be efficiently…
We define a class of dynamical systems on the sphere analogous to the baker map on the torus. The classical maps are characterized by dynamical entropy equal to ln 2. We construct and investigate a family of the corresponding quantum maps.…
We study the ergodic properties for a class of quantized toral automorphisms, namely the cat and Kronecker maps. The present work uses and extends the results of [KL]. We show that quantized cat maps are strongly mixing, while Kronecker…
A quantization of classical deformation theory, based on the Maurer-Cartan Equation $dS + \frac{1}{2}[S,S] = 0$ in dg-Lie algebras, a theory based on the Quantum Master Equation $dS + \hbar \Delta S + \frac{1}{2} \{S,S\} = 0$ in…
We find group cochains valued in currents giving explicit representatives for the $\text{GL}_2$-equivariant polylogarithm class of a torus. Based on the construction of weight-$2$ Eisenstein series for $\text{GL}_2$ from this polylogarithm…
We compare classical and quantum dynamics of a particle in the de Sitter spacetimes with different topologies to show that the result of quantization strongly depends on global properties of a classical system. We present essentially…
We present a reformulation of quantum mechanics in terms of probability measures and functions on a general classical sample space and in particular in terms of probability densities and functions on phase space. The basis of our proceeding…
We prove a strong version of quantum ergodicity for linear hyperbolic maps of the torus (``cat maps''). We show that there is a density one sequence of integers so that as N tends to infinity along this sequence, all eigenfunctions of the…
Let $G$ be a compact connected Lie group and $K$ a closed connected subgroup. Assume that the order of any torsion element in the integral cohomology of $G$ and $K$ is invertible in a given principal ideal domain $k$. It is known that in…
We investigate the quantum mechanics of the doubled torus system, introduced by Hull [1] to describe T-folds in a more geometric way. Classically, this system consists of a world-sheet Lagrangian together with some constraints, which reduce…
All measurable predictions of classical mechanics can be reproduced from a quantum-like interpretation of a nonlinear Schrodinger equation. The key observation leading to classical physics is the fact that a wave function that satisfies a…
We present here the K-theoretic version of mirror models of toric manifold. First, we recall the construction of cohomological mirrors for toric manifolds, i.e. representations of the toric hypergeometric functions from quantum cohomology…
These notes describe some links between the group $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{R})$, the Heisenberg group and hypercomplex numbers---complex, dual and double numbers. Relations between quantum and classical mechanics are clarified in this…
The additivity of classical probabilities is only the first in a hierarchy of possible sum-rules, each of which implies its successor. The first and most restrictive sum-rule of the hierarchy yields measure-theory in the Kolmogorov sense,…
