Emergent generalized symmetry and maximal symmetry-topological-order
Arkya Chatterjee, Wenjie Ji, Xiao-Gang Wen
A characteristic property of a gapless liquid state is its emergent symmetry and dual symmetry, associated with the conservation laws of symmetry charges and symmetry defects respe…
Boundary states of Three Dimensional Topological Order and the Deconfined Quantum Critical Point
Wenjie Ji, Nathanan Tantivasadakarn, Cenke Xu
We study the boundary states of the archetypal three-dimensional topological order, i.e. the three-dimensional toric code. There are three distinct elementary types…
Decoding Measurement-Prepared Quantum Phases and Transitions: from Ising model to gauge theory, and beyond
Jong Yeon Lee, Wenjie Ji, Zhen Bi +1
Measurements allow efficient preparation of interesting quantum many-body states with long-range entanglement, conditioned on additional transformations based on measurement outcom…
Towards Non-Invertible Anomalies from Generalized Ising Models
Shang Liu, Wenjie Ji
We present a general approach to the bulk-boundary correspondence of noninvertible topological phases, including both topological and fracton orders. This is achieved by a novel bu…
Spin chains, defects, and quantum wires for the quantum-double edge
Victor V. Albert, David Aasen, Wenqing Xu +3
Non-Abelian defects that bind Majorana or parafermion zero modes are prominent in several topological quantum computation schemes. Underpinning their established understanding is t…
Pascal's Triangle Fractal Symmetries
Nayan E. Myerson-Jain, Shang Liu, Wenjie Ji +2
We introduce a model of interacting bosons exhibiting an infinite collection of fractal symmetries -- termed "Pascal's triangle symmetries" -- which provides a natural gener…
Non-Abelian Hybrid Fracton Orders
Nathanan Tantivasadakarn, Wenjie Ji, Sagar Vijay
We introduce lattice gauge theories which describe three-dimensional, gapped quantum phases exhibiting the phenomenology of both conventional three-dimensional topological orders a…
A unified view on symmetry, anomalous symmetry and non-invertible gravitational anomaly
Wenjie Ji, Xiao-Gang Wen
In this paper, using 1+1D models as examples, we study symmetries and anomalous symmetries via multi-component partition functions obtained through symmetry twists, and their trans…
Exotic Invertible Phases with Higher-Group Symmetries
Po-Shen Hsin, Wenjie Ji, Chao-Ming Jian
We investigate a family of invertible phases of matter with higher-dimensional exotic excitations in even spacetime dimensions, which includes and generalizes the Kitaev's chain in…
Hybrid Fracton Phases: Parent Orders for Liquid and Non-Liquid Quantum Phases
Nathanan Tantivasadakarn, Wenjie Ji, Sagar Vijay
We introduce hybrid fracton orders: three-dimensional gapped quantum phases that exhibit the phenomenology of both conventional three-dimensional topological orders and fracton ord…
Categorical Symmetries at Criticality
Xiao-Chuan Wu, Wenjie Ji, Cenke Xu
We study the concept of "categorical symmetry" introduced recently, which in the most basic sense refers to a pair of dual symmetries, such as the Ising symmetries of the quan…
Categorical symmetry and non-invertible anomaly in symmetry-breaking and topological phase transitions
Wenjie Ji, Xiao-Gang Wen
For a zero-temperature Landau symmetry breaking transition in -dimensional space that completely breaks a finite symmetry , the critical point at the transition has the symme…
Metallic states beyond Tomonaga-Luttinger liquids in one dimension
Wenjie Ji, Xiao-Gang Wen
In this paper, we propose some new strongly correlated gapless states (or critical states) of spin-1/2 electrons in 1+1-dimensions, such as doped anti-ferromagnetic spin-1/2 Ising…
Topological Transition on the Conformal Manifold
Wenjie Ji, Shu-Heng Shao, Xiao-Gang Wen
Despite great successes in the study of gapped phases, a comprehensive understanding of the gapless phases and their transitions is still under developments. In this paper, we stud…
Non-invertible anomalies and mapping-class-group transformation of anomalous partition functions
Wenjie Ji, Xiao-Gang Wen
Recently, it was realized that anomalies can be completely classified by topological orders, symmetry protected topological (SPT) orders, and symmetry enriched topological orders i…
A continuous topological phase transition between two 1D anti-ferromagnetic spin-1 boson superfluids with the same symmetry
Wenjie Ji, Xiao-Gang Wen
Spin-1 bosons on a 1-dimensional chain, at incommensurate filling with anti-ferromagnetic spin interaction between neighboring bosons, may form a spin-1 boson condensed state that…
Realizing Majorana zero mode with a stripe of \emph{ionized} and \emph{isolated} magnetic atoms on a \emph{layered} superconductor
Wenjie Ji, Xiao-Gang Wen
It has been proposed that a line junction between spiral magnet and superconductor or between ferromagnet and superconductor with Rashba spin-orbital coupling can produce Majorana…
A mechanism of conductance plateau without 1D chiral Majorana fermions
Wenjie Ji, Xiao-Gang Wen
We address the question about the origin of the conductance plateau observed in a recent experiment on an integer quantum Hall (IQH) film covered by a super…
Heavy Solitons in a Fermionic Superfluid
Tarik Yefsah, Ariel T. Sommer, Mark J. H. Ku +4
Topological excitations are found throughout nature, in proteins and DNA, as dislocations in crystals, as vortices and solitons in superfluids and superconductors, and generally in…
