Abstract

The simplices and the complexes arsing form the grading of the fundamental (desymmetrized) domain of arithmetical groups and non-arithmetical groups, as well as their extended (symmetrized) ones are described also for oriented manifolds in dim greater than 2. The conditions for the definition of fibers are summarized after Hamiltonian analysis, the latters can in some cases be reduced to those for sections for graded groups, such as the Picard groups and the Vinberg group.The cases for which modular structures rather than modular-groupstructure measures can be analyzed for non-arithmetic groups, i.e. also in the cases for which Gelfand triples (rigged spaces) have to be substituted by Hecke couples, as, for Hecke groups, the existence of intertwining operators after the calculation of the second commutator within the Haar measures for the operators of the correspondingly-generated C-[star] algebras is straightforward. The results hold also for (also non-abstract) groups with measures on (manifold) boundaries. The Poincaré invariance of the representation of Wigner-Bargmann (spin 1/2) particles is analyzed within the Fock-space interaction representation. The well-posed-ness of initial conditions and boundary ones for the connected (families of) equations is discussed. As an example, Picard-related equations can be classified according to the genus of the modular curve(s) attached to the solutions(s). From the Hamiltonian analysis, further results in the contraction of the congruence (extended sub-)groups for non-arithmetical groups for the construction of tori is provided as an alternative to the free diffeomorphism group. In addition, the presence of Poincaré complexes is found compatible with non-local interactions, i.e. both lattices interactions or spin-like ones.

Holography for bulk-boundary local topological order

In our previous article [arXiv:2307.12552], we introduced local topological order (LTO) axioms for quantum spin systems which allowed us to define a physical boundary (associated to a cut of the lattice) manifested by a net of boundary algebras in one dimension lower. This gives a formal setting for topological holography, where the braided tensor category of DHR bimodules of the physical boundary algebra captures the bulk topological order. In this article, we extend the LTO axioms to quantum spin systems equipped with a topological boundary (domain wall with the trivial phase), again producing a physical boundary algebra for the bulk-boundary system, whose category of (topological) boundary DHR bimodules recovers the topological boundary order. We perform this analysis in explicit detail for Levin-Wen and Walker-Wang bulk-boundary systems. Along the way, we introduce a 2D braided categorical net of algebras built from a unitary braided fusion category (UBFC). Such nets arise as boundary algebras of Walker-Wang models. We consider the canonical state on this braided categorical net corresponding to the standard topological boundary for the Walker-Wang model. Interestingly, in this state, the cone von Neumann algebras are type I with finite dimensional centers, in contrast with the type II and III cone von Neumann algebras from the Levin-Wen models studied in [arXiv:2307.12552]. The superselection sectors recover the underlying unitary category of our UBFC, and it was recently proven in [arXiv:2609.20725] that the superselection category also captures the fusion and braiding.

Semi-local observables, edge modes and quantum reference frames in quantum electromagnetism: an algebraic approach

Boundaries and corners of spacetime play a vital role in understanding physical concepts including entanglement entropy, the infrared problem in QFT and quantum gravity. Standard local quantum field theory struggles to accommodate such boundary-sensitive observables. In this paper we develop an algebraic framework for semi-local quantum electromagnetism on finite Cauchy lenses: a class of compact spacetimes with boundaries and corner. At the classical level, we establish a decomposition of the reduced covariant phase space into bulk closed-loop and surface sectors and demonstrate how the covariant phase space approach relates to the Peierls bracket construction commonly used in perturbative algebraic quantum field theory. Upon quantisation, we obtain a Weyl $C^{*}$-algebra of semi-local observables transforming non-trivially under large gauge transformations (those with non-trivial boundary contribution). To recover gauge invariance, we invoke the notion of quantum reference frames (QRFs) and construct a relativisation map, where we treat auxiliary surface degrees of freedom as QRFs for the large gauge transformations. The relativisation map is constructed directly on the level of $C^{*}$-algebras, making our construction state-independent. The QRF viewpoint on semi-local observables provides new tools for understanding gauge theories on manifolds with boundary, including the problem of gluing theories on Cauchy lenses with common boundaries.

A no-go theorem for irreversibility in arbitrary realizations of the collapse dynamics

We study finite dimensional quantum systems with arbitrary collapse events, establishing a structural no-go for operational irreversibility along arbitrary realizations of the collapse dynamics. More precisely, we prove that, for every choice of a physically admissible trajectory (i.e., collapse outcomes having nonzero Born weight) assigned to each state, there exists a nonempty topologically closed subset of the projective state space within which any two states can be connected with arbitrarily fine Fubini-Study precision and arbitrarily small integrated energetic cost. This shows that the preservation of information along observed realizations of outcomes guarantees islands of quasi-reversibility, while genuine irreversibility requires additional ingredients such as non-compactness or information erasure.
