We present a 3D topological picture-language for quantum information. Our approach combines charged excitations carried by strings, with topological properties that arise from embedding the strings in the interior of a 3D manifold with boundary. A quon is a composite that acts as a particle. Specifically, a quon is a hemisphere containing a neutral pair of open strings with opposite charge. We interpret multiquons and their transformations in a natural way. We obtain a type of relation, a string–genus “joint relation,” involving both a string and the 3D manifold. We use the joint relation to obtain a topological interpretation of the C* Hopf algebra relations, which are widely used in tensor networks. We obtain a 3D representation of the controlled NOT (CNOT) gate that is considerably simpler than earlier work, and a 3D topological protocol for teleportation.

Motivated by Kapranov's discovery of an $L_\infty$ algebra structure on the tangent complex of a K\"{a}hler manifold and Chen-Sti\'{e}non-Xu's construction of a Leibniz$_\infty[1]$ algebra associated with a Lie pair, we find a general method to construct Leibniz$_\infty[1]$ algebras ---from a DG derivation $\mathscr{A} \xrightarrow{\delta} \Omega$ of a commutative differential graded algebra $\mathscr{A}$ valued in a DG $\mathscr{A}$-module $\Omega$. We prove that for any $\delta$-connection $\nabla$ on $\mathcal{B}$, the $\A$-dual of $\Omega$, there associates a Leibniz$_\infty[1]$ $\mathscr{A}$-algebra $(\mathcal{B},\{\mathcal{R}^\nabla_k\}_{k\geq 1})$. Moreover, this construction is canonical, i.e., the isomorphism class of $(\mathcal{B},\{\mathcal{R}^\nabla_k\}_{k\geq 1})$ only depends on the homotopy class of $\delta$.

Based on the work of Ringel and Green, one can define the (Drinfeld) double Ringel--Hall algebra ${\mathscr D}(Q)$ of a quiver $Q$ as well as its highest weight modules. The main purpose of the present paper is to show that the basic representation $L(\Lambda_0)$ of ${\mathscr D}(\Delta_n)$ of the cyclic quiver $\Delta_n$ provides a realization of the $q$-deformed Fock space $\bigwedge^\infty$ defined by Hayashi. This is worked out by extending a construction of Varagnolo and Vasserot. By analysing the structure of nilpotent representations of $\Delta_n$, we obtain a decomposition of the basic representation $L(\Lambda_0)$ which induces the Kashiwara--Miwa--Stern decomposition of $\bigwedge^\infty$ and a construction of the canonical basis of $\bigwedge^\infty$ defined by Leclerc and Thibon in terms of certain monomial basis elements in ${\mathscr D}(\Delta_n)$.

For each simple Lie algebra g, we construct an algebra embedding of the quantum group Uq(g) into certain quantum torus algebra Dg via the positive representations of split real quantum group. The quivers corresponding to Dg is obtained from an amalgamation of two basic quivers, each of which is mutation equivalent to one describing the cluster structure of the moduli space of framed G-local system on a disk with 3 marked points on its boundary when G is of classical type. We derive a factorization of the universal R-matrix into quantum dilogarithms of cluster monomials, and show that conjugation by the R-matrix corresponds to a sequence of quiver mutations which produces the half-Dehn twist rotating one puncture about the other in a twice punctured disk.
