We investigate bipartite entanglement in spin-1/2 systems on a generic lattice. For states that are an equal superposition of elements of a group $G$ of spin flips acting on the fully polarized state $\ket{0}^{\otimes n}$, we find that the…
Calculation of topological order parameters, such as the topological entropy and topological mutual information, are used to determine whether states possess topological order. Their calculation is expected to give reliable results when the…
Decoherence is a major obstacle to the preparation of topological order in noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices. Here, we show that decoherence can also give rise to new types of topological order. Specifically, we construct concrete…
High temperature is usually expected to destroy order: as the Gibbs state approaches the infinite-temperature limit, it becomes an equal-weight ensemble over all states and the system is generically disordered. Recent works showed that…
We consider universal statistical properties of systems that are characterized by phase states with macroscopic degeneracy of the ground state. A possible topological order in such systems is described by non-linear discrete equations. We…

Chaotic many-body dynamics typically generates volume-law entanglement from initially low-entangled states. We reveal an intricate, hierarchical entanglement structure in local quantum quenches, both in the canonical purification of locally…
The topological theory of phase transitions was proposed on the basis of different arguments, the most important of which are: a direct evidence of the relation between topology and phase transitions for some exactly solvable models; an…
We construct a tensor network representation of the 3d toric code ground state that is stable to a generating set of uniform local tensor perturbations, including those that do not map to local operators on the physical Hilbert space. The…
We prove the existence of topological rings in (0,2) theories containing non-anomalous left-moving U(1) currents by which they may be twisted. While the twisted models are not topological, their ground operators form a ring under…
We show that the edge states of the four-dimensional class A system can have topological charges, which are characterized by Abelian/non-Abelian monopoles. The edge topological charges are a new feature of relations among theories with…
We revisit the connection between entanglement entropy and quantum metric in topological lattice systems, and provide an elegant and concise proof of this connection. In gapped two-dimensional lattice models with well-defined tight-binding…
In recent years, tensor network states have emerged as a very useful conceptual and simulation framework to study quantum many-body systems at low energies. In this paper, we describe a particular way in which any given tensor network can…

The R\'enyi entanglement entropy in quantum many-body systems can be viewed as the difference in free energy between partition functions with different trace topologies. We introduce an external field $\lambda$ that controls the partition…
There are different preparable quantum states in different network structures. The four nodes as a whole has two situations: one is the four nodes in a plane, the other is the four nodes in the space. In this paper, we obtain some…
We prove the conjectured classification of topological phases in two spatial dimensions with gappable boundary, in a simplified setting. Two gapped ground states of lattice Hamiltonians are in the same quantum phase of matter, or…
