Prediction of toric code topological order from Rydberg blockade

R Verresen, MD Lukin, A Vishwanath - Physical Review X, 2021 - APS
The physical realization of Z 2 topological order as encountered in the paradigmatic toric
code has proven to be an elusive goal. We predict that this phase of matter can be realized …

Classification of subsystem symmetry-protected topological phases

T Devakul, DJ Williamson, Y You - Physical Review B, 2018 - APS
We consider symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases in two dimensions protected by
linear subsystem symmetries, ie, those that act along rigid lines. There is a distinction …

[HTML][HTML] Ground state degeneracy on torus in a family of ZN toric code

H Watanabe, M Cheng, Y Fuji - Journal of Mathematical Physics, 2023 - pubs.aip.org
Topologically ordered phases in 2+ 1 dimensions are generally characterized by three
mutually related features: fractionalized (anyonic) excitations, topological entanglement …

Clustering of conditional mutual information for quantum Gibbs states above a threshold temperature

T Kuwahara, K Kato, FGSL Brandão - Physical review letters, 2020 - APS
We prove that the quantum Gibbs states of spin systems above a certain threshold
temperature are approximate quantum Markov networks, meaning that the conditional …

Characterization and classification of interacting ()-dimensional topological crystalline insulators with orientation-preserving wallpaper groups

N Manjunath, V Calvera, M Barkeshli - Physical Review B, 2024 - APS
While free fermion topological crystalline insulators have been largely classified, the
analogous problem in the strongly interacting case has been only partially solved, and the …

Spurious topological entanglement entropy from subsystem symmetries

DJ Williamson, A Dua, M Cheng - Physical review letters, 2019 - APS
We demonstrate that linear combinations of subregion entropies with canceling boundary
terms, commonly used to calculate the topological entanglement entropy, may suffer from …

Universal lower bound on topological entanglement entropy

IH Kim, M Levin, TC Lin, D Ranard, B Shi - Physical Review Letters, 2023 - APS
Entanglement entropies of two-dimensional gapped ground states are expected to satisfy an
area law, with a constant correction term known as the topological entanglement entropy …

Strong planar subsystem symmetry-protected topological phases and their dual fracton orders

T Devakul, W Shirley, J Wang - Physical Review Research, 2020 - APS
We classify subsystem symmetry-protected topological (SSPT) phases in 3+ 1 dimensions
(3+ 1 D) protected by planar subsystem symmetries: short-range entangled phases which …

Entanglement entropy provides a powerful characterization of two-dimensional gapped
topological phases of quantum matter, intimately tied to their description by topological …

Deciphering the nonlocal entanglement entropy of fracton topological orders

B Shi, YM Lu - Physical Review B, 2018 - APS
The ground states of topological orders condense extended objects and support topological
excitations. This nontrivial property leads to nonzero topological entanglement entropy S …
