Abstract

In this paper we compute and analyze the geometrical and topological changes in quantum physics within the new framework of our recent work [APL Quantum 2, 016104 (2025)] on Classicalization. Thus, the results of our paper here are twofold: Topology, geometry and Classicalization and the relationship between them. With this end ,we consider various types of states on the simplest polygon: states with triangle topology as solution of the Schrodinger equation, eigenstates of a lowering operator and coset coherent states. The results of this paper are: (1) From the point of view of the metaplectic group and the classicalization, the application of the Minimal Group Representation (MGR) on the states on the triangle and the circle can be performed only if the ladder operators [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are related to those of the oscillator [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. (2) For the coherent state case, the application of the MGR can be viewed in the same way as (1) but considering an eigenstate of the operator [Formula: see text], or a more general case, as an eigenstate of [Formula: see text]. (3) These 2D states are edge states geometrically dual to the quantum states within the boundary of the triangle: there is interplay between states at the edge and the states inside the triangular boundary. (4) The coherent states in the triangle are generated by applying the group [Formula: see text] to the coset coherent states of the circle as a fiducial vector (e.g., a polygon with infinity sides). (5) The justification for the proposal in item (4) is easy to see by applying the cyclic subgroup [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] to the fiducial (coset circle coherent states): as the number of sides tends to infinity, the elements of [Formula: see text] tend to the identity. (6) The application of MGR in the case of [Formula: see text] ([Formula: see text] coherent state, reveals to us the quantum structure underlying each of the sides of the triangle (polygon). (7) The norm (probability) found shows a clear interaction/interference between the sides of the triangle and between the even and odd sectors of the Hibert space. (8) The application of MGR allows topological isolation between the projected sectors (even and odd). It can be seen that the topological effect is of a quantum nature and vice versa. (9) These topological isolation effects do not disappear at the macroscopic level (e.g. they are independent of the space-time parameters of the physical system). In general, the results here show too that quantum states in geometries with angles and vertices classicalize more than in geometries without them. (10) Within this context, a generalization of the Bargmann representation, not previously introduced in the literature, is presented. (11) These theoretical results can have impact and applications in : Classical and quantum information processing, Quantum computation, classical-quantum interaction and interpretation measurements, classical-quantum duality, classical or quantum optimization.

q-Opers and Quantum/Classical Duality Beyond Type A

Using the language of q-opers, we propose an algebro-geometric description of the duality between Bethe Ansatz equations for quantum XXZ spin chains and many-body trigonometric Ruijsenaars-Schneider/Macdonald systems for classical groups. Upon this duality, the energy level sets of the classical B/C/D-type Hamiltonians...

Localization and Abelianization of Strings on Group Manifolds: The Simply Connected Case

We study the localization formula for the partition function of the Wess--Zumino--Witten (WZW) model on the torus for compact, connected, and simply connected simple Lie groups. We identify a missing factor in the original localization treatment of Murthy and Witten and show that it agrees with the result obtained from...

The group-theoretic origin of spin: the reality locus andcohomology of the spin spectrum

With the sole physical input that quantum symmetries act projectively on states, this work develops a group-theoretic account of spin as the obstruction to lifting a projective unitary representation to an ordinary one, controlled by two invariants: an infinitesimal class in H2(g, bR) and a topological character in Hom...

Weighted Berry curvature and global geometry of mixed quantum states

We examine the geometric interpretation of the quantum geometric tensor proposed in [Phys. Rev. B {\bf 110}, 035404 (2024)] for mixed quantum states, focusing on its imaginary part, which is proportional to a weighted sum of the Berry curvatures of the eigenstates of the density operator. While the real part naturally...

Of-shell quantum mechanics as factorization algebras on intervals

We present, for the harmonic oscillator and the spin-12 system, an alternative formulation of quantum mechanics that is “off-shell”: it is based on classical off-shell configurations and thus similar to the path integral. The core elements are Batalin–Vilkovisky (BV) algebras and factorization algebras, following a pro...

Peeling off Abelian Anyons and Proliferation Transitions

We study the invertible one-form global symmetry of a (2+1)-dimensional topological quantum field theory (TQFT). A universal description of this symmetry ``peels off''all the Abelian anyons from the rest of the TQFT. This allows us to study this symmetry and some of its consequences, independently of the details of the...

Solving a 31-year-old grand challenge in mathematics – the KLS conjecture

For decades, a fundamental question about the difficulty of computing in high-dimensional spaces has resisted proof. New research resolves this question, removing a major theoretical obstacle to understanding the efficiency of randomized algorithms used across science and computing. The Kannan–Lovász–Simonovits (KLS) conjecture was proposed in 1995. It asks whether, for a broad class of high-dimensional […] The post Solving a 31-year-old grand challenge in mathematics – the KLS conjecture appear…
