In reading the first of these I run into the usual sense or difficulty with 
Wolfram of understanding how to compute or calculate things.

This does get into HoTT (homotopy type theory) which I see as a sort of 
quantum of homotopy or index that represents the obstruction to 
diffeomorphisms on paths. A hole or "horn you can't pull the reins over" 
that prevents any diffeomorphism that moves a curve past the hole or horn, 
defines a first fundamental form π_1(M) = ℤ. The HoTT is a binary set of 
paths that wrap around the obstruction and those which do not. In a quantum 
mechanical form this can be a form of quantum bit. 

The role of topology with quantum mechanics is not fully understood. An 
elementary particle is really a set of quantum states or numbers, and these 
may have topological definition. The charge, spin, etc are topological 
quantum numbers, and the Cheshire Cat experiments illustrate how these are 
in a form of entanglement. Elementary particles are really not that 
different from quasiparticles in condensed matter physics'
