Anyon Condensation In Symmetry-Enriched Topological Phases: -Grading of Multifusion Categories

Nianrui Fu, Siyuan Wang, Yu Zhao +1

Although anyon condensation is a standard mechanism for relating topological orders, anyon condensation in symmetry-enriched topological (SET) phases is more intricate because the…

Non-Abelian Particle-Loop, Fracton, and Planon Condensation in Cage-Net Models

Yifei Wang, Yu Zhao, Yingcheng Li +2

We present a framework for non-Abelian p-loop, fracton, and planon condensation in 3+1 dimensions by constructing extended cage-net fracton models using decoupled layers of the Hu-…

Symmetry-Enriched Topological Phases and Their Gauging: A String-Net Model Realization

Nianrui Fu, Yu Zhao, Yidun Wan

We present a systematic framework for constructing exactly-solvable lattice models of symmetry-enriched topological (SET) phases based on an enlarged version of the string-net mode…

A 2D-CFT Factory: Critical Lattice Models from Competing Anyon Condensation Processes in SymTO/SymTFT

Ling-Yan Hung, Kaixin Ji, Ce Shen +2

In this paper, we introduce a ``CFT factory'' : a novel algorithm of methodically generating 2D lattice models that would flow to 2D conformal fixed points in the infrared. These 2…

Landau-Ginzburg Paradigm of Topological Phases

Yu Zhao, Yidun Wan

Topologically ordered matter phases have been regarded as beyond the Landau-Ginzburg symmetry breaking paradigm of matter phases. Recent studies of anyon condensation in topologica…

Nonlinear Symmetry-Fragmentation of Nonabelian Anyons In Symmetry-Enriched Topological Phases: A String-Net Model Realization

Nianrui Fu, Siyuan Wang, Yu Zhao +1

Symmetry-enriched topological (SET) phases combine intrinsic topological order with global symmetries, giving rise to novel symmetry phenomena. While SET phases with Abelian anyons…

Classification of Gapped Domain Walls of Topological Orders in 2+1 dimensions: A Levin-Wen Model Realization

Yanyan Chen, Siyuan Wang, Yu Zhao +2

This paper introduces a novel systematic construction of gapped domain walls (GDWs) within the Levin-Wen (LW) model. By gluing two LW models along their open sides in a compatible…

Nonabelian Anyon Condensation in 2+1d topological orders: A String-Net Model Realization

Yu Zhao, Yidun Wan

We develop a comprehensive framework for realizing anyon condensation of topological orders within the string-net model by constructing a Hamiltonian that bridges the parent string…

Effective dynamics of quantum fluctuations in field theory: with applications to cosmology

Ding Ding, Zhao Yu, Yidun Wan

We develop a novel framework for describing quantum fluctuations in field theory, with a focus on cosmological applications. Our method uniquely circumvents the use of operator/Hil…
