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…

On Defects Between Gapped Boundaries in Two-Dimensional Topological Phases of Matter

Iris Cong, Meng Cheng, Zhenghan Wang

Defects between gapped boundaries provide a possible physical realization of projective non-abelian braid statistics. A notable example is the projective Majorana/parafermion braid…

Topological Quantum Computation with Gapped Boundaries

Iris Cong, Meng Cheng, Zhenghan Wang

This paper studies fault-tolerant quantum computation with gapped boundaries. We first introduce gapped boundaries of Kitaev's quantum double models for Dijkgraaf-Witten theories u…
