When does Morita equivalence between two Hopf-von Neumann algebras imply also...

Let $A$ and $B$ be two Hopf-von Neumann (bi)algebras. Furthermore, let us assume that we know that they are Morita equivalent as von Neumann algebras (i.e. their categories of appropriate...

An alternative Cauchy theorem on Hopf algebras

Let $\mathbb{A}$ be a finite dimensional Hopf ${\rm C}^{\star}$-algebra.There already exists a generalization of Cauchy theorem using exponent, see [KSZ06].We are interesting in an alternative...

Estimating ground state energy of $n$-qubit $2$-local Hamiltonian $H$ with...

Suppose we have an $n$-qubit $2$-local Hamiltonian $H$ with known coefficients. The eigenvalues of $H$ lie in $[0,1)$ and can all be written exactly with $[2 \log_2n]$ bits of precision. You would like...

Modularity of the Drinfeld center of the category of G-graded vector spaces

Background: Let $G$ be a finite group, and $\mathrm{Vect}_G$ be the category of finite dimensional $G$-graded vector spaces over some algebraically closed field $k$ of char 0. It is well-known that...

What is quantum algebra?

This might be a very naive question. But what is quantum algebra, really?Wikipedia defines quantum algebra as "one of the top-level mathematics categories used by the arXiv". Surely this cannot be a...

Where does the definition of ($\infty$-)groupoid cardinality come from?

The cardinality of a finite set $X$ is the number of its elements. Once you know that, you would define the groupoid cardinality of a $\infty$-groupoid $X$ as the quantity$$\lvert X\rvert := \sum_{[x]...

Poisson quantization vs quantization in atomic physics

Is it possible to interpret quantization in atomic physics ( e.g. the quantization condition in hydrogen atom stated as exponential decay of wave functions at infinity and analogously for n-electron...

Is anything known about the derivative of the quantum dilogarithm?

Faddeev's noncompact quantum dilogarithm is the function defined by$$ \Phi_{\mathsf b}(z) = \exp \int_{\mathbb{R} + i\varepsilon} \frac{ e^{-2i zw} }{ 4 \sinh(w \mathsf b ) \sinh(w/\mathsf b) }...

Existence of an element in a Hopf algebra that satisfies a 'flip' property

Consider a Hopf algebra $H$ where $S$ is the antipode and $\Delta$ is the coproduct. Given $a \in H$, I want to know if there always exists an element $b \in H$ satisfying the 'flip' property: $$\Delta...

Coloured Jones polynomial at 4th root of unity and Arf invariant

Looking at the link invariants of $\operatorname{SU}(2)$ Chern-Simons theory, if we take the coloured Jones polynomial of a knot K, say $J_N^K$ at fundamental representation $N=2$, then we get the...

Isomorphic objects have the same dimension (pivotal categories)

I want to prove that if two objects $X,Y$ in a pivotal category $\mathcal{C}$ are isomorphic, then $X$ and $Y$ have the same dimension, i.e.,$$\mathrm{dim}(X) = \mathrm{Tr}^{L}(\mathrm{id}_{X}) =...
