Abstract

Abstract We develop a new geometric approach to deal with qubit information systems using colored graph theory. More precisely, we present a one to one correspondence between graph theory, and qubit systems, which may be explored to attack qubit information problems using toric geometry considered as a powerful tool to understand modern physics including string theory. Concretely, we examine in some details the cases of one, two, and three qubits, and we find that they are associated with CP 1 , CP 1 × CP 1 and CP 1 × CP 1 × CP 1 toric varieties respectively. Using a geometric procedure referred to as a colored toric geometry, we show that the qubit physics can be converted into a scenario handling toric data of such manifolds by help of hypercube graph theory. Operations on toric information can produce universal quantum gates.

Qubits from Adinkra Graph Theory via Colored Toric Geometry

Y. Aadel, A. Belhaj, Z. Benslimane +2 more

We develop a new approach to deal with qubit information systems using toric geometry and its relation to Adinkra graph theory. More precisely, we link three different subjects namely toric geometry, Adinkras and quantum information theory. This one to one correspondence may be explored to attack qubit system problems using geometry considered as a powerful tool to understand modern physics including string theory. Concretely, we examine in some details the cases of one, two, and three qubits, and we find that they are associated with \bf CP^1, \bf CP^1\times CP^1 and \bf CP^1\times CP^1\times CP^1 toric varieties respectively. Using a geometric procedure referred to as colored toric geometry, we show that the qubit physics can be converted into a scenario handling toric data of such manifolds by help of Adinkra graph theory. Operations on toric information can produce universal quantum gates.

Toric Realisation of Quantum Systems via Clifford Structures

M. Bensed, Y. El Maadi

We present a geometric approach to describe quantum information systems. Precisely, we elaborate a genuine correspondence between toric geometry and qubit systems using the construction of Clifford graph algebras. This mapping may be explored to investigate qubit information applications using toric geometry considered as a potent tool to understand high energy physics including black holes and string theory. Explicitly, we examine in some details the cases of two and three qubits, and we find that they are associated with certain Clifford graph structures. Mixed states are also discussed.

Toric varieties: Simple combinatorial and geometrical structure of multipartite quantum systems

Hoshang Heydari

We investigate the geometrical structure of multipartite states based on the construction of toric varieties. We show that the toric variety represents the space of general pure states and projective toric variety defines the space of separable set of multi-qubits states. We also discuss in details the construction of single-, two-, three-, and multi- qubits states. This construction gives a very simple and elegant visual representation of the geometrical structure of multipartite quantum systems.

Multipartite quantum systems and symplectic toric manifolds

Hoshang Heydari

In this paper we study the geometrical structures of multi-qubit states based on symplectic toric manifolds. After a short review of symplectic toric manifolds, we discuss the space of a single quantum state in terms of these manifolds. We also investigate entangled multipartite states based on moment map and Delzant's construction of toric manifolds and algebraic toric varieties.

Character Varieties and Algebraic Surfaces in Topological Quantum Information: A Review

Michel R. P. Planat

Geometric and topological methods play an increasingly important role in quantum information science and quantum computation. Beyond the conventional Hilbert space formalism, a variety of mathematical frameworks, including group representations, mapping class groups, modular tensor categories, and character varieties, have been proposed to describe quantum states and quantum gates in a structurally robust manner. This review surveys the development of topological and geometric approaches to quantum information, with particular emphasis on representations of fundamental groups into SL(2,C), their associated character varieties, and the algebraic surfaces arising from trace coordinates, such as Fricke and Cayley cubic surfaces. These structures provide a geometric encoding of quantum degrees of freedom and offer alternative perspectives on topological quantum computing beyond anyon-based models. We also examine connections with integrable systems and isomonodromic deformations, where Painlevé equations and monodromy data supply a dynamical viewpoint on quantum state evolution. A critical comparison is provided with other geometric and topological approaches to quantum information, including geometric quantum mechanics, information geometry, tensor network geometry, and category-theoretic formulations. By synthesising results from topology, algebraic geometry, and mathematical physics, this review aims to clarify the conceptual landscape of topological quantum information geometry and to identify open problems and emerging directions in the field.

Weighted Graph Theory Representation of Quantum Information Inspired by Lie Algebras

Abdelilah Belhaj, A. Belhaj, Larbi Machkouri +2 more

Borrowing ideas from the relation between simply laced Lie algebras and Dynkin diagrams, a weighted graph theory representation of quantum information is addressed. In this way, the density matrix of a quantum state can be interpreted as a signless Laplacian matrix of an associated graph. Using similarities with root systems of simply laced Lie algebras, one-qubit theory is analyzed in some details and is found to be linked to a non-oriented weighted graph having two vertices. Moreover, this one-qubit theory is generalized to n-qubits. In this representation, quantum gates correspond to graph weight operations preserving the probability condition. A speculation from string theory, via D-brane quivers, is also given.
