These notes were inspired by the course ''Quantum Field Theory from a Functional Integral Point of View'' given at the University of Zurich in Spring 2017 by Santosh Kandel. We describe Feynman's path integral approach to quantum mechanics and quantum field theory from a functional integral point of view, where the mai…
We study quantum invariant Z(M) for cusped hyperbolic 3-manifold M. We construct this invariant based on oriented ideal triangulation of M by assigning to each tetrahedron the quantum dilogarithm function, which is introduced by Faddeev in studies of the modular double of the quantum group. Following Thurston and Neuma…
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.
We discuss an approach to quantum gerbes over quantum groups in terms of q-deformation of transition functions for a loop group bundle. The case of the quantum group SUq(2) is treated in some detail.
We introduce two methods for estimating the density matrix for a quantum system: Quantum Maximum Likelihood and Quantum Variational Inference. In these methods, we construct a variational family to model the density matrix of a mixed quantum state. We also introduce quantum flows, the quantum analog of normalizing flow…
In this paper, we study the Yang-Mills functional on quantum Heisenberg manifolds using the appratuses developed by A. Connes and M. Rieffel. It is discovered that a connection on a projective module over a quantum Heisenberg manifold is a minimum of Yang-Mills functional whicih is a critical point that is different wi…
We construct bosonic and fermionic locally covariant quantum field theories on curved backgrounds for large classes of fields. We investigate the quantum field and n-point functions induced by suitable states.
We give an explicit formula, as a formal differential operator, for quantum microformal morphisms of (super)manifolds that we introduced earlier. Such quantum microformal morphisms are essentially oscillatory integral operators or Fourier integral operators of a particular kind. They act on oscillatory wave functions, …
Machine learning and quantum computing are two technologies each with the potential for altering how computation is performed to address previously untenable problems. Kernel methods for machine learning are ubiquitous for pattern recognition, with support vector machines (SVMs) being the most well-known method for cla…
In this article we model a financial derivative price as an observable on the market state function. We apply geometric techniques to integrating the Heisenberg Equation of Motion. We illustrate how the non-commutative nature of the model introduces quantum interference effects that can act as either a drag or a boost …
Beginning with several basic hypotheses of quantum mechanics, we give a new quantum model in econophysics. In this model, we define wave functions and operators of the stock market to establish the Schrödinger equation for the stock price. Based on this theoretical framework, an example of a driven infinite quantum wel…
Neural-Network Quantum States have been recently introduced as an Ansatz for describing the wave function of quantum many-body systems. We show that there are strong connections between Neural-Network Quantum States in the form of Restricted Boltzmann Machines and some classes of Tensor-Network states in arbitrary dime…
The probability distribution function (PDF) for prices on financial markets is derived by extremization of Fisher information. It is shown how on that basis the quantum-like description for financial markets arises and different financial market models are mapped by quantum mechanical ones.
In this paper we construct the quantum group, at roots of unity, of abelian Chern-Simons theory. We then use it to model classical theta functions and the actions of the Heisenberg and modular groups on them.
This paper outlines an approach to the non-abelian theta functions of the SU(2)-Chern-Simons theory with the methods used by A. Weil for studying classical theta functions. First we translate in knot theoretic language classical theta functions, the action of the finite Heisenberg group, and the discrete Fourier tran…
Quantum control is valuable for various quantum technologies such as high-fidelity gates for universal quantum computing, adaptive quantum-enhanced metrology, and ultra-cold atom manipulation. Although supervised machine learning and reinforcement learning are widely used for optimizing control parameters in classical …
