Foliated fracton order in the checkerboard model
Wilbur Shirley, Kevin Slagle, Xie Chen
In this work, we show that the checkerboard model exhibits the phenomenon of foliated fracton order. We introduce a renormalization group transformation for the model that utilizes…
Fractional excitations in foliated fracton phases
Wilbur Shirley, Kevin Slagle, Xie Chen
Fractional excitations in fracton models exhibit novel features not present in conventional topological phases: their mobility is constrained, there are an infinitude of types, and…
Foliated fracton order from gauging subsystem symmetries
Wilbur Shirley, Kevin Slagle, Xie Chen
Based on several previous examples, we summarize explicitly the general procedure to gauge models with subsystem symmetries, which are symmetries with generators that have support…
Universal entanglement signatures of foliated fracton phases
Wilbur Shirley, Kevin Slagle, Xie Chen
Fracton models exhibit a variety of exotic properties and lie beyond the conventional framework of gapped topological order. In a previous work, we generalized the notion of gapped…
