Reflection and time reversal symmetry enriched topological phases of matter: path integrals, non-orientable manifolds, and anomalies

Maissam Barkeshli, Parsa Bonderson, Chao-Ming Jian +2

We study symmetry-enriched topological (SET) phases in 2+1 space-time dimensions with spatial reflection and/or time-reversal symmetries. We provide a systematic construction of a…

Topological Quantum Computation with Gapped Boundaries

Iris Cong, Meng Cheng, Zhenghan Wang

This paper studies fault-tolerant quantum computation with gapped boundaries. We first introduce gapped boundaries of Kitaev's quantum double models for Dijkgraaf-Witten theories u…

A series of (2+1)d Stable Self-Dual Interacting Conformal Field Theories

Meng Cheng, Cenke Xu

Using the duality between seemingly different (2+1)d conformal field theories (CFT) proposed recently, we study a series of (2+1)d stable self-dual interacting CFTs. These CFTs can…

Ising Anyons in Frustration-Free Majorana-Dimer Models

Brayden Ware, Jun Ho Son, Meng Cheng +3

Dimer models have long been a fruitful playground for understanding topological physics. Here we introduce a new class - termed Majorana-dimer models - wherein bosonic dimers are d…

Exactly Solvable Models for Symmetry-Enriched Topological Phases

Meng Cheng, Zheng-Cheng Gu, Shenghan Jiang +1

We construct fixed-point wave functions and exactly solvable commuting-projector Hamiltonians for a large class of bosonic symmetry-enriched topological (SET) phases, based on the…

Classification of symmetry fractionalization in gapped spin liquids

Yang Qi, Meng Cheng

In quantum spin liquids, fractional spinon excitations carry half-integer spins and other fractional quantum numbers of lattice and time-reversal symmetries. Different patterns of…
