Foliated Field Theory and String-Membrane-Net Condensation Picture of Fracton Order
Kevin Slagle, David Aasen, Dominic Williamson
Foliated fracton order is a qualitatively new kind of phase of matter. It is similar to topological order, but with the fundamental difference that a layered structure, referred to…
Fractonic Matter in Symmetry-Enriched U(1) Gauge Theory
Dominic J. Williamson, Zhen Bi, Meng Cheng
In this work we explore the interplay between global symmetry and the mobility of quasiparticle excitations. We show that fractonic matter naturally appears in a three dimensional…
Classification of subsystem symmetry-protected topological phases
Trithep Devakul, Dominic J. Williamson, Yizhi You
We consider symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases in 2D protected by linear subsystem symmetries, i.e. those that act along rigid lines. There is a distinction between a "str…
Spurious topological entanglement entropy from subsystem symmetries
Dominic J. Williamson, Arpit Dua, Meng Cheng
We demonstrate that linear combinations of subregion entropies with canceling boundary terms, commonly used to calculate the topological entanglement entropy, may suffer from spuri…
Universal quantum computation using fractal symmetry-protected cluster phases
Trithep Devakul, Dominic J. Williamson
We show that 2D fractal subsystem symmetry-protected topological phases may serve as resources for universal measurement-based quantum computation. This is demonstrated explicitly…
Mapping topological to conformal field theories through strange correlators
Matthias Bal, Dominic J. Williamson, Robijn Vanhove +3
We extend the concept of strange correlators, defined for symmetry-protected phases in [You et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 112, 247202 (2014)], to topological phases of matter by taking…
