Hamiltonian and Algebraic Theories of Gapped Boundaries in Topological Phases of Matter
Iris Cong, Meng Cheng, Zhenghan Wang
We present an exactly solvable lattice Hamiltonian to realize gapped boundaries of Kitaev's quantum double models for Dijkgraaf-Witten theories. We classify the elementary excitati…
