Fracton Models on General Three-Dimensional Manifolds
Wilbur Shirley, Kevin Slagle, Zhenghan Wang +1
Fracton models, a collection of exotic gapped lattice Hamiltonians recently discovered in three spatial dimensions, contain some 'topological' features: they support fractional bul…
Pattern of Zeros
Modjtaba Shokrian Zini, Zhenghan Wang, Xiao-Gang Wen
In this paper, we provide a set of definitions upon which one can prove in a rigorous way most of the main results achieved in the pattern of zeros classification of fractional qua…
Topological Quantum Computation with Gapped Boundaries and Boundary Defects
Iris Cong, Zhenghan Wang
We survey some recent work on topological quantum computation with gapped boundaries and boundary defects and list some open problems.
Beyond Anyons
Zhenghan Wang
The theory of anyon systems, as modular functors topologically and unitary modular tensor categories algebraically, is mature. To go beyond anyons, our first step is the interplay…
Braid Group Representations from Braiding Gapped Boundaries of Dijkgraaf-Witten Theories
Nicolás Escobar-Velásquez, César Galindo, Zhenghan Wang
We study representations of the braid groups from braiding gapped boundaries of Dijkgraaf-Witten theories and their twisted generalizations, which are (twisted) quantum doubled top…
Universal Quantum Computation with Gapped Boundaries
Iris Cong, Meng Cheng, Zhenghan Wang
This Letter discusses topological quantum computation with gapped boundaries of two-dimensional topological phases. Systematic methods are presented to encode quantum information t…
