We develop a new algorithm for the quantisation of systems with first-class constraints. Our approach lies within the (History Projection Operator) continuous-time histories quantisation programme. In particular, the Hamiltonian treatment…
The consistent histories formalism is discussed using path-projected states. These are used to analyse various criteria for approximate consistency. The connection between the Dowker-Halliwell criterion and sphere packing problems is shown…
We model problems as presheaves that assign sets of certificates to input instances, and we show how to use presheaf \v{C}ech cohomology to capture the precise ways in which local solutions fail to patch into global ones. Applied to…
Higher-order quantum theory is an extension of quantum theory where one introduces transformations whose input and output are transformations, thus generalizing the notion of channels and quantum operations. The generalization then goes…
We aim to reconstruct a monoid scheme $X$ from the category of quasi-coherent sheaves over it. This is much in the vein of Gabriel's original reconstruction theorem. Under some finiteness condition on a monoid schemes $X$, we show that the…
This paper is the fourth in a series whose goal is to develop a fundamentally new way of building theories of physics. The motivation comes from a desire to address certain deep issues that arise in the quantum theory of gravity. Our basic…
We show that the cohomology table of any coherent sheaf on projective space is a convergent--but possibly infinite--sum of positive real multiples of the cohomology tables of what we call supernatural sheaves.
If a Quillen model category can be specified using a certain logical syntax (intuitively, ``is algebraic/combinatorial enough''), so that it can be defined in any category of sheaves, then the satisfaction of Quillen's axioms over any site…
We present a sheaf-theoretic construction of shape space -- the space of all shapes. We do this by describing a homotopy sheaf on the poset category of constructible sets, where each set is mapped to its Persistent Homology Transform (PHT).…
In this article, we develop an explicit categorical realization of sheafification based on colimits, products, and subobjects, emphasizing its behavior in algebraic and topological-algebraic settings. We prove that if $\mathcal{C}$ is a…
In his article "Unitary Representations and Complex Analysis", David Vogan gives a characterization of the continuous invariant Hermitian forms defined on the compactly supported sheaf cohomology groups of certain homogeneous analytic…
Complex systems of systems (SoS) are characterized by multiple interconnected subsystems. Typically, each subsystem is designed and analyzed using methodologies and formalisms that are specific to the particular subsystem model of…
This is the first of a series of papers on sheaf theory on smooth and topological stacks and its applications. The main result of the present paper is the characterization of the twisted (by a closed integral three-form) de Rham complex on…
We propose that the sheaf condition on a presheaf of design spaces provides a mathematical model for multi-view consistency in the architecture of cyber-physical systems (CPS). In model-based systems engineering, multiple engineering views…
In this work a generalization of the consistent histories approach to quantum mechanics is presented. We first critically review the consistent histories approach to nonrelativistic quantum mechanics in a mathematically rigorous way and…
The sheaf-theoretic structure is useful in classifying no-go theorems related to non-locality and contextuality. It provides a new point of view different from conventional formularization of quantum mechanics. First, we examine a…
Modalities in homotopy type theory are used to create and access subuniverses of a given type universe. These have significant applications throughout mathematics and computer science, and in particular can be used to create universes in…
In this note we derive a formalism for describing equivariant sheaves over toric varieties. This formalism is a generalization of a correspondence due to Klyachko, which states that equivariant vector bundles on toric varieties are…
We introduce an original notion of extra-fine sheaf on a topological space, and a variant (hyper-extra-fine) for which \v{C}ech cohomology in strictly positive degree vanishes. We provide a characterization of such sheaves when the…
Isomorphism is central to the structure of mathematics and has been formalized in various ways within dependent type theory. All previous treatments have done this by replacing quantification over sets with quantification over groupoids of…
