Haah codes on general three manifolds

Abstract

Haah codes represent a singularly interesting gapped Hamiltonian schema that has resisted a natural generalization, although recent work shows that the closely related type I fracton models are more commonplace. These type I siblings of Haah codes are better understood, and a generalized topological quantum field theory framework has been proposed. Following the same conceptual framework, we outline a program to generalize Haah codes to all 3-manifolds using Hastings' LR stabilizer codes for finite groups.
