This paper delves into the history and integration of quantum theory into areas such as opinion dynamics, decision theory, and game theory, offering a novel framework for social simulations. It introduces a quantum perspective for analyzing information transfer and decision-making complexity within social systems, employing a toric code-based method for error discrimination.Central to this research is the use of toric codes, originally for quantum error correction, to detect and correct errors in social simulations, representing uncertainty in opinion formation and decision-making processes. Operator and error syndrome measurement, vital in quantum computation, help identify and analyze errors and uncertainty in social simulations. The paper also discusses fault-tolerant computation employing transversal gates, which protect against errors during quantum computation. In social simulations, transversal gates model protection from external interference and misinformation, enhancing the fidelity of decision-making and strategy formation processes.

We investigate the quench dynamics of interacting bosons on a two-leg ladder in presence of a uniform Abelian gauge field. The model hosts a variety of emergent quantum phases, and we focus on the superfluid biased-ladder phase breaking the $Z_{2}$ symmetry of two legs. We observe an asymmetric spreading of vortex current and particle density, i.e., the current behaves particle-like on the right and wave-like on the left, indicating spontaneous breaking of the spatial inversion symmetry. By decreasing the repulsion strength, it is found the particle-like current is more robust than the wave-like one. The evolution of entanglement entropy manifests logarithmic growth with time suggesting many-body localization matters.
