Gauging Defects in Quantum Spin Systems
Jacob C. Bridgeman, Alexander Hahn, Tobias J. Osborne +1
The goal of this work is to build a dynamical theory of defects for quantum spin systems. A kinematic theory for an indefinite number of defects is first introduced exploiting dist…
Computing data for Levin-Wen with defects
Jacob C. Bridgeman, Daniel Barter
We demonstrate how to do many computations for non-chiral topological phases with defects. These defects may be 1-dimensional domain walls or 0-dimensional point defects. Using $\o…
Computing Defects Associated to Bounded Domain Wall Structures: The Case
Jacob C. Bridgeman, Daniel Barter
A domain wall structure consists of a planar graph with faces labeled by fusion categories/topological phases. Edges are labeled by bimodules/domain walls. When the vertices are la…
