Statistical Mechanics and Symmetries of Non-Abelian Anyon Proliferation: From Deformation to Decoherence

Avi Vadali, Robijn Vanhove, Ruben Verresen +2

Topological quantum computation relies on braiding non-Abelian anyons, but requires the underlying topological order to survive imperfect state preparation and environmental noise.…

Duality via Sequential Quantum Circuit in the Topological Holography Formalism

Robijn Vanhove, Vibhu Ravindran, David T. Stephen +2

Two quantum theories which look different but are secretly describing the same low-energy physics are said to be dual to each other. When realized in the Topological Holography for…

Sequential Quantum Circuits as Maps between Gapped Phases

Xie Chen, Arpit Dua, Michael Hermele +4

Finite-depth quantum circuits preserve the long-range entanglement structure in quantum states and map between states within a gapped phase. To map between states of different gapp…

A critical lattice model for a Haagerup conformal field theory

Robijn Vanhove, Laurens Lootens, Maarten Van Damme +4

We use the formalism of strange correlators to construct a critical classical lattice model in two dimensions with the \emph{Haagerup fusion category} as input data…

Topological aspects of the critical three-state Potts model

Robijn Vanhove, Laurens Lootens, Hong-Hao Tu +1

We explore the topological defects of the critical three-state Potts spin system on the torus, Klein bottle and cylinder. A complete characterization is obtained by breaking down t…

Efficient MPS methods for extracting spectral information on rings and cylinders

Maarten Van Damme, Robijn Vanhove, Jutho Haegeman +2

Based on the MPS formalism, we introduce an ansatz for capturing excited states in finite systems with open boundary conditions, providing a very efficient method for computing, e.…

Cardy states, defect lines and chiral operators of coset CFTs on the lattice

Laurens Lootens, Robijn Vanhove, Frank Verstraete

We construct Cardy states, defect lines and chiral operators for rational coset conformal field theories on the lattice. The bulk theory is obtained by taking the overlap between t…

Galois conjugated tensor fusion categories and non-unitary CFT

Laurens Lootens, Robijn Vanhove, Jutho Haegeman +1

We provide a generalisation of the matrix product operator (MPO) formalism for string-net projected entangled pair states (PEPS) to include non-unitary solutions of the pentagon eq…

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…

Global anomaly detection in two-dimensional symmetry-protected topological phases

Nick Bultinck, Robijn Vanhove, Jutho Haegeman +1

Edge theories of symmetry-protected topological phases are well-known to possess global symmetry anomalies. In this work we focus on two-dimensional bosonic phases protected by an…
