Introduction to Topological Quantum Matter & Quantum Computation
Abstract
What is "topological" about topological quantum states? How many types of topological quantum phases are there? What is a zero-energy Majorana mode, how can it be realized in a solid state system, and how can it be used as a platform for topological quantum computation? What is quantum computation and what makes it different from classical computation? Addressing these and other related questions, Introduction to Topological Quantum Matter & Quantum Computation provides an introduction to and a synthesis of a fascinating and rapidly expanding research field emerging at the crossroads of condensed matter physics, mathematics, and computer science. Providing the big picture, this book is ideal for graduate students and researchers entering this field as it allows for the fruitful transfer of paradigms and ideas amongst different areas, and includes many specific examples to help the reader understand abstract and sometimes challenging concepts. It explores the topological quantum world beyond the well-known topological insulators and superconductors and emphasizes the deep connections with quantum computation. It addresses key principles behind the classification of topological quantum phases and relevant mathematical concepts and discusses models of interacting and noninteracting topological systems, such as the torric code and the p-wave superconductor. The book also covers the basic properties of anyons, and aspects concerning the realization of topological states in solid s…

“However, the weaklyinteracting integer quantum Hall effect (section 2.2.1) states lack the nontrivial excitations, but do possess LRE according to the above definition [6].”

In the citing paper
“However, it is now known that classification based on symmetry is not complete, since some zero-temperature phases of matter that share the same symmetries are nevertheless separated by a phase transition [6].”

In the citing paper
“A variety of interesting phenomena, like topological degeneracy of the ground state (i.e. a degeneracy robust against local perturbations that do not affect the topology of the state), exotic excitations, and robust, perfectly conducting edge states may arise due to the topological nature of these states [6].”

“The topologically ordered states may have features such as topologically protected gapless boundary modes, topologically degenerate ground states and exotic excitations obeying fractional Abelian or non-Abelian statistics [6] (see section 2.2.3).”

“In contrast to the gauge invariant Abelian Berry holonomy, the non-Abelian holonomy transforms as U n C → U -1 ( R 0 ) U n C U ( R 0 ) [6].”

“Additionally, an explicit time dependence of the Hamiltonian may be thought of as introducing a geometric scalar potential in addition to the time-dependent vector potential A n ( k , t ) [6].”

In the citing paper
“Arectangle with periodic boundary conditions in both directions is topologically equivalent (homeomorphic) to a torus, since there are two distinct possible classes of nontrivial loops that cannot be contracted into a point without breaking them open (see [6] for a more rigorous treatment).”

“On the other hand, they need not be gapless in the interacting case, provided the boundary either spontaneously breaks a symmetry that enables the existence of the SPT phase in question (in 2D or higher dimensions), or that it carries an intrinsic topological order (in 3D or higher dimensions) [6].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
