Overview

This talk is based on joint work with Ben Musto and Dominic Verdon:A compositional approach to quantum functions

The Morita theory of quantum graph isomorphisms

quantuminformation

compact quantumgroups

category theory &higher algebra

quantum graph isomorphisms and their role in pseudo-telepathy[Atserias, Mancinska, Roberson, Samal, Severini, Varvitsiotis, 2017]

quantum automorphism groups of graphs[Banica, Bichon and others, 1999–2018]

Seems to fit into a much broaded framework of ’finite quantum set theory’.Part 1: Getting startedPart 2: Quantum functionsPart 3: The Morita theory of quantum graph isomorphisms

Definition (Graph isomorphism game [1])

Let G and H be graphs with vertex sets V (G ) and V (H).Alice and Bob play against a verifier.They cannot communicate once the game has started.Step 1: The verifier gives Alice and Bob vertices vA, vB ∈ V (G ) ∪ V (H).Step 2: They reply with vertices v ′A and v ′B in V (G ) ∪ V (H).Rules: Alice and Bob win if:

(i) vA ∈ V (G )⇔ v ′A ∈ V (H) and vB ∈ V (G )⇔ v ′B ∈ V (H)Let vGA = unique vertex of {vA, v ′A} in G and similarly vHA , v

A perfect winning strategy is a graph isomorphisms.There are graphs that are quantum but not classically isomorphic!

Setting the stage

The stage:Hilb — the category of finite-dimensional Hilbert spaces and linear maps.String diagrams: read from bottom to top.

Finite Gelfand duality: [1]

finite set X ! commutative finite-dimensional C ∗-algebra CX

The algebra structure copies and compares the elements of X :

:=∑x∈X

:=∑x∈X

This makes CX into a commutative special †-Frobenius algebra in Hilb.

Setting the stage

The stage:Hilb — the category of finite-dimensional Hilbert spaces and linear maps.String diagrams: read from bottom to top.

Finite Gelfand duality: [1]

finite set X ! commutative finite-dimensional C ∗-algebra CX

The algebra structure copies and compares the elements of X :

:=∑x∈X

x† x†

x

:=∑x∈X

x

This makes CX into a commutative special †-Frobenius algebra in Hilb.

Quantum graph isomorphisms

Let G and H be finite graphs with adjacency matrices G and H.

A graph isomorphism is a bijection P such that:

P

G= P

H

These are exactly the quantum graph isomorphisms from pseudo-telepathy.

Definition

The 2-category QGraph is built from the following structures:

objects are finite graphs G ,H, ...;

1-morphisms G −→ H are quantum graph isomorphisms;

2-morphisms are intertwiners

Quantum graph isomorphisms are dualizable 1-morphisms.

QGraph

QGraph is a semisimple dagger 2-category with dualizable 1-morphisms.

Can take direct sum of quantum functions.

Every quantum function is a direct sum of simple quantum functionsP for which the intertwiners are trivial; QGraph(P,P) ∼= C.

QAut(G ) := QGraph(G ,G ) — the quantum automorphism category of agraph G — is a fusion category.

Every classical isomorphism is simple.

Direct sums of isomorphisms form the classical subcategory Aut(G ).

Aut(G ) = HilbAut(G), the category of Aut(G )-graded Hilbert spaces.

If QAut(G ) = Aut(G ), then G has no quantum symmetries.

Frobenius algebras in classical subcategories

QAut(G ) is too large.

Let’s focus on an easier subcategory:

The classical subcategory Aut(G ) : direct sums of classical automorphisms

Definition:A group of central type is a group H with a 2-cocycle ψ : H × H −→ U(1)such that CHψ is a simple algebra.Example:The Pauli matrices make the group Z2 × Z2 into a group of central type:

C (Z2 × Z2)ψ −→ End(C2) (a, b) 7→ X aZb

An example: binary magic squares (BMS)

BMS: a 3× 3 square with

{entries in {0, 1}

rows and columns add up to 0 mod 2Define a graph ΓBMS :

edge between two vertices if the partial BMS contradict each other

Bit-flip symmetries of this graph form a subgroup (Z2)4 ≤ Aut(ΓBMS).

⇒ (Z2)4 is a group of central type with coisotropic stabilizers

⇒ classification gives graph Γ′ quantum isomorphic to Γ

⇒ Γ′ coincides with a graph in [1] coming from the Mermin-Peres square

⇒ Pseudo-telepathy from the symmetries of classical magic squares

Summary

We have

described a framework for finite quantum set and graph theory

which links compact quantum group theory, fusion category theoryand quantum information

and applied it to classify quantum isomorphic graphs.

Many open questions:

Other physical applications?

Other theories based on finite quantum sets? Quantum orders?

Quantum combinatorics?

...

Thanks for listening!
