abstract

For a net of C*-algebras on a discrete metric space, we introduce a bimodule version of the DHR tensor category and show it is an invariant of quasi-local algebras under isomorphisms with bounded spread. For abstract spin systems on a lattice $L\subseteq \mathbb{R}^{n}$ satisfying a weak version of Haag duality, we construct a braiding on these categories. Applying the general theory to quasi-local algebras $A$ of operators on a lattice invariant under a (categorical) symmetry, we obtain a homomorphism from the group of symmetric quantum cellular automata (QCA) to $\textbf{Aut}_{br}(\textbf{DHR}(A))$, containing symmetric finite depth circuits in the kernel. For a spin chain with fusion categorical symmetry $\mathcal{D}$, we show the DHR category of the quasi-local algebra of symmetric operators is equivalent to the Drinfeld center $\mathcal{Z}(\mathcal{D})$ . We use this to show that for the double spin flip action $\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}\times \mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}\curvearrowright \mathbb{C}^{2}\otimes \mathbb{C}^{2}$, the group of symmetric QCA modulo symmetric finite depth circuits in 1D contains a copy of $S_{3}$, hence is non-abelian, in contrast to the case with no symmetry.

  1. Causal Decompositions of 1D Quantum Cellular Automata

    quant-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    For N > 4r, every 1D quantum cellular automaton of causality radius r is exactly a routed unitary circuit of nearest-neighbour interactions, and translation-invariant automata get translation-invariant circuits.

  2. Quantum Cellular Automata on Symmetric Subalgebras

    quant-ph 2024-11 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    Quantum cellular automata on finite-Abelian-symmetric subalgebras of 1D spin chains are completely classified by an anyon-permutation invariant and a generalized GNVW index.

  3. Disjoint additivity and local quantum physics

    hep-th 2025-09 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Local quantum systems should obey disjoint additivity plus Haag duality, a combination that survives higher-form symmetries and fails for known nonlocal constructions.

  4. Holography for bulk-boundary local topological order

    math-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    For topological boundaries in Levin-Wen and Walker-Wang models, the boundary algebra's DHR bimodule category recovers the boundary topological order, and for Walker-Wang it is the enriched center Z_B(X).

  5. Tube Category, Tensor Renormalization and Topological Holography

    math-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    For any rigid monoidal category C, the representations of the coend-defined tube category XC are equivalent to the relative center of the Yoneda embedding, with the Drinfeld center Z(C) embedded inside.

  6. Orthonormal bases for higher Hilbert spaces

    math.QA 2026-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For finite-dimensional 3-Hilbert spaces, orthonormal bases exist uniquely up to contractible choice, and the Yoneda embedding into the presheaf 3-Hilbert space is an isometric equivalence.
