Ground State Degeneracy of Infinite-Component Chern-Simons-Maxwell Theories: Foliated vs. Non-foliated Fracton Orders
Xie Chen, Ho Tat Lam, Xiuqi Ma
Infinite-component Chern-Simons-Maxwell theories with a block-Toeplitz K matrix provide a vast landscape of gapped and gapless, foliated and non-foliated fracton orders. In this pa…

Sequential Adiabatic Generation of Chiral Topological States
Xie Chen, Michael Hermele, David T. Stephen
In previous work, it was shown that non-trivial gapped states can be generated from a product state using a sequential quantum circuit. Explicit circuit constructions were given fo…
