We prove that, except for a few explicit roots of unity, the quantum image of any Johnson subgroup of the mapping class group contains an explicit free non-abelian subgroup.
In this paper we consider a conjecture formulated by the second author in occasion of the 1998 ICM in Berlin (arXiv:math/9807034v2). This conjecture states the equivalence, for a Fano variety X, of the semisimplicity condition for the quantum cohomology QH∙(X) with the existence condition of full exceptional…
For compact and for convex co-compact oriented hyperbolic surfaces, we prove an explicit correspondence between classical Ruelle resonant states and quantum resonant states, except at negative integers where the correspondence involves holomorphic sections of line bundles.
We propose a new algorithm for Dehn surgery problem, finding exceptional Dehn filling slopes for a given hyperbolic 3-manifold with a torus boundary, using a quantum invariant called "3D index". The invariant is defined using an ideal triangulation of the cusped 3-manifold. We test the algorithm for many examples.
The tail of a quantum spin network in the two-sphere is a q-series associated to the network. We study the existence of the head and tail functions of quantum spin networks colored by 2n. We compute the q-series for an infinite family of quantum spin networks and give the relation between the tail of these networ…
We consider the SO(3) Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev quantum invariants of random 3-manifolds. When the level r is prime, we show that the asymptotic distribution of the absolute value of these invariants is given by the standard Rayleigh distribution and independent of the choice of level. Hence the probability that the qu…
We give a computer free proof of the Deligne, Cohen and deMan formulas for the dimensions of the irreducible g-modules appearing in the tensor powers of g, where g ranges over the exceptional complex simple Lie algebras. We give additional dimension formulas for the exceptional series, as well as uniform dimensio…
Lomonaco and Kauffman developed knot mosaics to give a definition of a quantum knot system. This definition is intended to represent an actual physical quantum system. A knot n-mosaic is an n×n matrix of 11 kinds of specific mosaic tiles representing a knot or a link. The mosaic number m(K) of a knot K i…
In quantum computation, series of quantum gates have to be arranged in a predefined sequence that led to a quantum circuit in order to solve a particular problem. What if the sequence of quantum gates is known but both the problem to be solved and the outcome of the so defined quantum circuit remain in the shadow? This…
Our aim is to prove that two formal power series of importance to quantum topology are Gevrey. These series are the Kashaev invariant of a knot (reformulated by Huynh and the second author) and the Gromov norm of the LMO of an integral homology 3-sphere. It follows that the power series associated to a simple Lie algeb…
We discuss relations between quantum BPS invariants defined in terms of a product decomposition of certain series, and difference equations (quantum A-polynomials) that annihilate such series. We construct combinatorial models whose structure is encoded in the form of such difference equations, and whose generating fun…
Quantum models can approximate any function if data encoding allows for a rich enough frequency spectrum.
problem Theoretical properties of quantum machine learning models, particularly their expressive power.
method Investigated how data encoding affects the expressive power of parametrized quantum circuits.
result Quantum models can access increasingly rich frequency spectra by repeating data encoding gates, potentially making them universal function approximators.
New invariants for 3-manifolds derived from supergroup representations.
problem Developing invariants for 3-manifolds using supergroup analogues.
method Introducing supergroup analogues of 3-manifold invariants for superunitary groups, focusing on SU(2|1). Calculating q-series for specific 3-manifolds and studying their properties.
result Explicit calculation and study of q-series for certain 3-manifolds, providing a formula relating new invariants to quantum invariants.
The Quantum Modularity Conjecture of Zagier predicts the existence of a formal power series with arithmetically interesting coefficients that appears in the asymptotics of the Kashaev invariant at each root of unity. Our goal is to construct a power series from a Neumann-Zagier datum (i.e., an ideal triangulation of th…
For the existence of a branched covering Sigma~ --> Sigma between closed surfaces there are easy necessary conditions in terms of chi(Sigma~), chi(Sigma), orientability, the total degree, and the local degrees at the branching points. A classical problem dating back to Hurwitz asks whether these conditions are also suf…
Quantum ELMs use a quantum reservoir to learn from data, with limits on expressivity and scalability.
problem Understanding the limits of quantum ELMs for machine learning tasks.
method Decomposed QELM predictions into Fourier series to analyze expressivity and scalability.
result Expressivity of QELMs is limited by the number of Fourier frequencies and observables, and scalability is hindered by hardware noise and entanglement.
It is well-known to the experts that multi-dimensional state integrals of products of Faddeev's quantum dilogarithm which arise in Quantum Topology can be written as finite sums of products of basic hypergeometric series in q=e^{2πiτ} and \tilde{q}=e^{-2πi/τ}. We illustrate this fact by giving a detailed proof for a fa…
