Abstract · v1

Given a graph GG, does it have quantum symmetries, or in other words, is the algebra of the quantum automorphism group non-commutative? In the world of ordinary groups, determining whether a finitely presented group is commutative is undecidable. This is an immediate consequence of the Adian-Rabin theorem, which shows that many natural properties of finitely presented groups are undecidable. In this paper, we prove an Adian-Rabin theorem for quantum automorphism groups of graphs, showing that many natural properties of the quantum automorphism group of a graph (including having quantum symmetries) are undecidable. We also show that it's undecidable to determine if the discrete quantum automorphism group is non-trivial. Our methods are based on solution groups of linear system nonlocal games, and we also prove an Adian-Rabin theorem in this context.
