To test a possible relation between the topological entropy and the Arnold complexity, and to provide a non trivial example of a rational dynamical zeta function, we introduce a two-parameter family of two-dimensional discrete rational…

We describe an effective method for calculating certain infinite sums, generalizations of the classical Bernoulli polynomials. As shown by Edward Witten in his papers on two-dimensional gauge theories, the correlation functions of…

An entanglement Renyi entropy for a spatial partition of a system is studied in conformal theories which admit a dual description in terms of an anti-de Sitter gravity. The divergent part of the Renyi entropy is computed in 4D conformal N=4…

We study entanglement in two-dimensional Yang-Mills theory, viewed as a quasi-topological model of emergent space. The most familiar class of states in this theory are states defined by Euclidean path integrals over Riemann surfaces.…

We compute a momentum space version of the entanglement spectrum and entanglement entropy of general Young tableau states, and one-point functions on Young tableau states. These physical quantities are used to measure the topology of the…

The Entanglement contour function quantifies the contribution from each degree of freedom in a region $\mathcal{A}$ to the entanglement entropy $S_{\mathcal{A}}$. Recently in \cite{Wen:2018whg} the author gave two proposals for the…

Topological quantum field theories can be used as a powerful tool to probe geometry and topology in low dimensions. Chern-Simons theories, which are examples of such field theories, provide a field theoretic framework for the study of knots…

We present basic constructions and properties in arithmetic Chern-Simons theory with finite gauge group along the line of topological quantum field theory. For a finite set $S$ of finite primes of a number field $k$, we construct arithmetic…

We study the $n=2$ R\' enyi entanglement entropy of the triangular quantum dimer model via Monte Carlo sampling of Rokhsar-Kivelson(RK)-like ground state wavefunctions. Using the construction proposed by Kitaev and Preskill [Phys. Rev.…

Entanglement is one of the most fundamental features of quantum systems. In this work, we obtain the entanglement spectrum and entropy of Floquet noninteracting fermionic lattice models and build their connections with Floquet topological…

The interplay between symmetry and topology in electronic band structures has been one of the central subjects in condensed-matter physics. Recently, it has been getting clear that a wide variety of useful information about the band…

We study translationally-invariant insulators with inversion symmetry that fall outside the established classification of topological insulators. These insulators are not required to have gapless boundary modes in the energy spectrum.…

We consider the mixed topological-holomorphic Chern-Simons theory introduced by Costello, Yamazaki and Witten on a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ orbifold. We use this to construct semi-classical solutions of the boundary Yang-Baxter equation in the…

We develop a nonequilibrium increment method in quantum Monte Carlo simulations to obtain the R\'enyi entanglement entropy of various quantum many-body systems with high efficiency and precision. To demonstrate its power, we show the…

Multi-wavefunction overlaps -- generalizations of the quantum mechanical inner product for more than two quantum many-body states -- are valuable tools for studying many-body physics. In this paper, we investigate the multi-wavefunction…

I review some recent results on four-manifold invariants which have been obtained in the context of topological quantum field theory. I focus on three different aspects: (a) the computation of correlation functions, which give explicit…

We study the behaviour of Wilson and 't Hooft loop operators for the 2+1 dim. Abelian-Higgs model with Chern-Simons term. The phase of topological symmetry breaking where the vortex field condenses, found by Samuel for the model in the…

We find further evidence for the conjecture relating large N Chern-Simons theory on S^3 with topological string on the resolved conifold geometry by showing that the Wilson loop observable of a simple knot on S^3 (for any representation)…

In this paper, we apply ideas of Dijkgraaf and Witten on 2+1 dimensional topological quantum field theory to arithmetic curves, that is, the spectra of rings of integers in algebraic number fields. In the first three sections, we define…

This thesis presents several new insights on the interface between mathematics and theoretical physics, with a central role for fermions on Riemann surfaces. First of all, the duality between Vafa-Witten theory and WZW models is embedded…
