Emergent Exclusion Statistics of Fibonacci Anyons in 2D Topological Phases
Yuting Hu, Spencer D. Stirling, Yong-Shi Wu
We demonstrate how the generalized Pauli exclusion principle emerges for quasiparticle excitations in 2d topological phases. As an example, we examine the Levin-Wen model with the…

Ground State Degeneracy in the Levin-Wen Model for Topological Phases
Yuting Hu, Spencer D. Stirling, Yong-Shi Wu
We study properties of topological phases by calculating the ground state degeneracy (GSD) of the 2d Levin-Wen (LW) model. Here it is explicitly shown that the GSD depends only on…

Counterexamples in Levin-Wen string-net models, group categories, and Turaev unimodality
Spencer D. Stirling
We remark on the claim that the string-net model of Levin and Wen is a microscopic Hamiltonian formulation of the Turaev-Viro topological quantum field theory. Using simple counter…
