Abstract

In this work, we provide an analytical proof of the robustness of topological entanglement under a model of random local perturbations. We define a notion of average topological subsystem purity and show that, in the context of quantum double models, this quantity does detect topological order and is robust under the action of a random quantum circuit of shallow depth.
