Decomposition and Gluing for Adiabatic Quantum Optimization
Micah Blake McCurdy, Jeffrey Egger, Jordan Kyriakidis
Farhi and others have introduced the notion of solving NP problems using adiabatic quantum com- puters. We discuss an application of this idea to the problem of integer factorizati…
Graphical Methods for Tannaka Duality of Weak Bialgebras and Weak Hopf Algebras in Arbitrary Braided Monoidal Categories
Micah Blake McCurdy
Tannaka Duality describes the relationship between algebraic objects in a given category and their representations; an important case is that of Hopf algebras and their categories…
On Cyclic Star-Autonomous Categories
Jeff Egger, Micah Blake McCurdy
We discuss cyclic star-autonomous categories; that is, unbraided star- autonomous categories in which the left and right duals of every object p are linked by coherent natural isom…
What Separable Frobenius Monoidal Functors Preserve
Micah Blake McCurdy, Ross Street
Separable Frobenius monoidal functors were defined and studied under that name by Szlachanyi and by Day and Pastro, and in a more general context by Cockett and Seely. Our purpose…
Tannaka Reconstruction of Weak Hopf Algebras in Arbitrary Monoidal Categories
Micah Blake McCurdy
We introduce a variant on the graphical calculus of Cockett and Seely for monoidal functors and illustrate it with a discussion of Tannaka reconstruction, some of which is known an…
Scaling state of dry two-dimensional froths: universal angle deviations and structure
Andrew D. Rutenberg, Micah B. McCurdy
We characterize the late-time scaling state of dry, coarsening, two-dimensional froths using a detailed, force-based vertex model. We find that the slow evolution of bubbles leads…
