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…

X-Cube Fracton Model on Generic Lattices: Phases and Geometric Order

Kevin Slagle, Yong Baek Kim

Fracton order is a new kind of quantum order characterized by topological excitations that exhibit remarkable mobility restrictions and a robust ground state degeneracy (GSD) which…

Theory of a quantum spin liquid in hydrogen-intercalated honeycomb iridate, H3LiIr2O6

Kevin Slagle, Wonjune Choi, Li Ern Chern +1

We propose a theoretical model for a gapless spin liquid phase that may have been observed in a recent experiment on . Despite the insulating and non-magne…

Quantum Field Theory of X-Cube Fracton Topological Order and Robust Degeneracy from Geometry

Kevin Slagle, Yong Baek Kim

We propose a quantum field theory description of the X-cube model of fracton topological order. The field theory is not (and cannot be) a topological quantum field theory (TQFT), s…

Fracton Topological Order from Nearest-Neighbor Two-Spin Interactions and Dualities

Kevin Slagle, Yong Baek Kim

Fracton topological order describes a remarkable phase of matter which can be characterized by fracton excitations with constrained dynamics and a ground state degeneracy that incr…
