Quantum Entanglement, Stratified Spaces, and Topological Matter: Towards an Entanglement-Sensitive Langlands Correspondence

TL;DR
The paper investigates how quantum entanglement functions as a cohomological obstruction to reconstructing a global quantum state from locally compatible data, using a stratified parameter-space framework and the Haldane model as a concrete testbed. It develops an entanglement witness filtering scheme that yields a curvature-weighted coherence and exact lattice identities linking Chern numbers to sector-resolved responses, while extending the picture to multi-orbital settings with matrix-valued coherence and Levi-type classifications. A key technical advance is the introduction of the $S$-filtered quantum geometric tensor and quantum Fisher information, with rigorous bounds showing how entanglement channels bound metrological resources and how the filtered responses peak near Dirac-like singularities. The results connect a topological Langlands-type duality to physically measurable jumps across stratification walls, offering a practical tomography route for entanglement-encoded topological data and a framework extendable to mixed states, non-Abelian degeneracies, and broader topological phases.
Abstract
Recently, quantum entanglement has been presented as a cohomological obstruction to reconstructing a global quantum state from locally compatible information, where sheafification provides a functor that is forgetful with regards to global-from-local signatures while acting faithfully with respect to within-patch multipartite structures. Nontrivial connections to Hecke modifications and the geometric Langlands program are explored in the process. The aim of this work is to validate and extend a number of the claims made in [arXiv:2511.04326] through both theoretical analysis and numerical simulations, employing concrete perspectives from condensed matter physics.
