A quantum fundamental groupoid  F is defined as a [[../TrivialGroupoid/|functor]] F:BG, where B is the [[../CategoryOfHilbertSpaces/|category of Hilbert space]] bundles, and G is the [[../QuantumFundamentalGroupoid3/|category of quantum groupoids]] and their [[../TrivialGroupoid/|homomorphisms]].

Fundamental groupoid functors and functor categories

The natural setting for the definition of a quantum fundamental groupoid F is in one of the functor categories-- that of [[../FundamentalGroupoidFunctor/|fundamental groupoid functors]], Failed to parse (unknown function "\grp"): {\displaystyle F_{\grp}} , and their [[../NaturalTransformation/|natural transformations]] defined in the context of [[../QuantumCategories/|quantum categories]] of quantum spaces represented by [[../HilbertBundle/|Hilbert space bundles]] or rigged Hilbert (also called Frech\'et) spaces B.

Other related [[../TrivialGroupoid/|functor categories]] are those specified with the [[../PreciseIdea/|general definition]] of the [[../QuantumFundamentalGroupoid/|fundamental groupoid functor]], Failed to parse (unknown function "\grp"): {\displaystyle F_{\grp}: '''Top''' \to \grp_2} , where Top is the [[../Cod/|category]] of [[../CoIntersections/|topological]] spaces and Failed to parse (unknown function "\grp"): {\displaystyle \grp_2} is the [[../GroupoidCategory/|groupoid category]].

A specific example of a quantum fundamental groupoid can be given for [[../SimplicialCWComplex/|spin foams]] of [[../SimplicialCWComplex/|spin networks]], with a [[../ComplexOfSpinNetworks/|spin foam]] defined as a functor between spin network categories. Thus, because spin networks or [[../Cod/|graphs]] are specialized one-dimensional CW-complexes whose cells are linked quantum [[../QuarkAntiquarkPair/|spin]] states, their quantum fundamental groupoid is defined as a [[../CategoryOfLogicAlgebras/|functor representation]] of CW-complexes on [[../I3/|rigged Hilbert spaces]] (also called Frech\'et nuclear spaces).
