A faithful 2-dimensional TQFT

It has been shown in this paper that the commutative Frobenius algebra $QZ_5\otimes Z(QS_3)$ provides a complete invariant for two-dimensional cobordisms, i.e., that the corresponding two-dimensional quantum field theory is faithful. The essential role in the proof of this result plays Zsigmondy's Theorem.

On the Faithfulness of 1-dimensional Topological Quantum Field Theories

This paper explores 1-dimensional topological quantum field theories. We separately deal with strict and strong 1-dimensional topological quantum field theories. The strict one is regarded as a symmetric monoidal functor between the category of 1-cobordisms and the category of matrices, and the strong one is a symmetric monoidal functor between the category of 1-cobordisms and the category of finite dimensional vector spaces. It has been proved that both strict and strong 1-dimensional topological quantum field theories are faithful.

Spheres as Frobenius objects

Following the pattern of the Frobenius structure usually assigned to the 1-dimensional sphere, we investigate the Frobenius structures of spheres in all other dimensions. Starting from dimension $d=1$, all the spheres are commutative Frobenius objects in categories whose arrows are ${(d+1)}$-dimensional cobordisms. With respect to the language of Frobenius objects, there is no distinction between these spheres---they are all free of additional equations formulated in this language. The corresponding structure makes out of the 0-dimensional sphere not a commutative but a symmetric Frobenius object. This sphere is mapped to a matrix Frobenius algebra by a 1-dimensional topological quantum field theory, which corresponds to the representation of a class of diagrammatic algebras given by Richard Brauer.

Formulae of Partial Reduction for Linear Systems of First Order Operator Equations

This paper deals with reduction of non-homogeneous linear systems of first order operator equations with constant coefficients. An equivalent reduced system, consisting of higher order linear operator equations having only one variable and first order linear operator equations in two variables, is obtained by using the rational canonical form.
