Quantum spin liquids may be considered'quantum disordered'ground states of spin systems,
in which zero-point fluctuations are so strong that they prevent conventional magnetic long …

This review focuses on the field of quantum entanglement applied to condensed matter
physics systems with strong correlations, a domain which has rapidly grown over the last …

Topological phases are unique states of matter that incorporate long-range quantum
entanglement and host exotic excitations with fractional quantum statistics. Here we report a …

Physical interactions in quantum many-body systems are typically local: Individual
constituents interact mainly with their few nearest neighbors. This locality of interactions is …

Topologically ordered phases are gapped states, defined by the properties of excitations
when taken around one another. Here we demonstrate a method to extract the statistics and …

Recent interest in aspects common to quantum information and condensed matter has
prompted a flurry of activity at the border of these disciplines that were far distant until a few …

Presenting the physics of the most challenging problems in condensed matter using the
conceptual framework of quantum field theory, this book is of great interest to physicists in …

Combining physics, mathematics and computer science, topological quantum computation
is a rapidly expanding research area focused on the exploration of quantum evolutions that …

The many-body physics at quantum phase transitions shows a subtle interplay between
quantum and thermal fluctuations, emerging in the low-temperature limit. In this review, we …
