Fault-tolerant quantum computation with long-range correlated noise
Dorit Aharonov, Alexei Kitaev, John Preskill
We prove a new version of the quantum accuracy threshold theorem that applies to non-Markovian noise with algebraically decaying spatial correlations. We consider noise in a quantu…

Topological entanglement entropy
Alexei Kitaev, John Preskill
We formulate a universal characterization of the many-particle quantum entanglement in the ground state of a topologically ordered two-dimensional medium with a mass gap. We consid…

Anyons in an exactly solved model and beyond
Alexei Kitaev
A spin 1/2 system on a honeycomb lattice is studied. The interactions between nearest neighbors are of XX, YY or ZZ type, depending on the direction of the link; different types of…
