This paper provides an informal sketch of a proof of the Baez-Dolan cobordism hypothesis, which provides a classification for extended topological quantum field theories.

Concept of entangled probability distribution of several random variables is introduced. These probability distributions describe multimode quantum states in probability representation of quantum mechanics. Example of entangled probability…

In this article, we introduce the notion of good map and use it to establish Gromov-Witten theory for orbifolds.

This paper presents a new approach to the dimension theory and Orlov spectra of triangulated categories by considering natural filtrations that arise in the pretriangulated setting.

In the paper we investigate the theory of quantum optical systems. As an application we integrate and describe the quantum optical systems which are generically related to the classical orthogonal polynomials. The family of coherent states…

It is the goal of this article to extend the notion of quantization from the standard interpretation focused on non-commuting observables defined starting from classical analogues, to the topological equivalents defined in terms of…

For an orbifold, there is a notion of an orbifold embedding, which is more general than the one of sub-orbifolds. We develop several properties of orbifold embeddings. In the case of translation groupoids, we show that such a notion is…

The purpose of this paper is to introduce an algebraic cohomology and formal deformation theory of left alternative algebras. Connections to some other algebraic structures are given also.

I present a method of performing geometric quantization using cohomology groups extended via coefficient groups of different types. This is possible according to the Universal Coefficient Theorem (UTC). I also show that by using this method…

In this expository paper written for physicists and geometers we introduce the notions of TQFT and of orbifold. Then we survey the construction of TQFT's originating from orbifolds such as Chen-Ruan theory and Orbifold String Topology.

This is a survey of knot contact homology, with an emphasis on topological, algebraic, and combinatorial aspects.

We introduce a formulation of combined systems in orthodox non-relativistic quantum mechanics, mathematically equivalent to the usual one. For context and larger issues, see http://euclid.unh.edu/~jjohnson/axiomatics.html and…

We explore a connection between quantum logic and quantum computing.

We use topological quantum field theory to derive an invariant of a three-manifold with boundary. We then show how to use this invariant as an obstruction to embedding one three-manifold in another.

After sketching recent advances and subtleties in classical relativistically covariant field theories, we give in this short Note some indications as to how the deformation quantization approach can be used to solve or at least give a…

In this paper, we introduce the concept and representation of modified $\lambda$-differential Lie triple systems. Next, we define the cohomology of modified $\lambda$-differential Lie triple systems with coefficients in a suitable…

A short critical review of the concept of decoherence, its consequences, and its possible implications for the interpretation of quantum theory is given.

Let M be a closed simply connected 2n-dimensional manifold. The present paper is concerned with the cohomology of classifying spaces of connected groups of homeomorphisms of M.

The (small) quantum cohomology ring of a flag manifold F encodes enumerative geometry of rational curves on F. We give a proof of the presentation of the ring and of a quantum Giambelli formula, which is more direct and geometric than the…

Recently it has been shown that D-branes in orientifolds are not always described by equivariant Real K-theory. In this paper we define a previously unstudied twisted version of equivariant Real K-theory which gives the D-brane spectrum for…
