arXiv:2610.33221v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In this paper, we determine the complete ground-state spaces for a broad class of generalized stabilizer quantum models defined over CW-decompositions of non-compact manifolds of arbitrary dimensions and topological type. We introduce a $C^*$-algebraic framework in which the quantum spin algebra $\A$ is realized as the twisted group $C^*$-algebra of an infinite discrete Pauli module $P$ endowed with a symplectic structure. We establish a correspondence between stabilizer models and isotropic subgroups of $P$: Every Lagrangian extension of such a subgroup determines a $C^*$-diagonal of $\A$, whose Weyl groupoid encodes the dynamics through a continuous 1-cocycle. This realization yields an explicit family of extremal ground-states for every admissible Lagrangian model, together with their decomposition into sectors. When the sector space is $T_0$, this gives a complete characterization of the ground-state spaces. We also prove that every Lagrangian stabilizer model admits a unique frustration-free ground state with a spectral gap. Our framework applies in arbitrary dimension, including higher abelian quantum doubles, homological codes, and a broad class of stabilizer models.
