The atomic-scale influence of disorder on the topological order can be quantified by a universal topological marker, although the practical calculation of the marker becomes numerically very costly in higher dimensions. We propose that for…
Boundary theories of static bulk topological phases of matter are obstructed in the sense that they cannot be realized on their own as isolated systems. The obstruction can be quantified/characterized by quantum anomalies, in particular…

A quantum computer can efficiently find the order of an element in a group, factors of composite integers, discrete logarithms, stabilisers in Abelian groups, and `hidden' or `unknown' subgroups of Abelian groups. It is already known how to…
Topological order is now being established as a central criterion for characterizing and classifying ground states of condensed matter systems and complements categorizations based on symmetries. Fractional quantum Hall systems and quantum…
We show that a topological quantum computer based on the evaluation of a Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev TQFT invariant of knots can always be arranged so that the knot diagrams with which one computes are diagrams of hyperbolic knots. The…
We study a broad class of qudit stabilizer codes, termed $\mathbb{Z}_N$ bivariate-bicycle (BB) codes, arising either as two-dimensional realizations of modulated gauge theories or as $\mathbb{Z}_N$ generalizations of binary BB codes. Our…
We demonstrate topological characterization of $S=\frac{1}{2}$ Kitaev quantum spin liquids on a series of one-dimensional honeycomb nanoribbon lattices with zigzag and armchair terminated edges. We draw their Majorana spinon phase diagrams…

We study the holomorphic twist of 3d N = 2 supersymmetric field theories, discuss the perturbative bulk local operators in general, and explicitly construct non perturbative bulk local operators for abelian gauge theories. Our construction…
Here we investigate the connection between topological order and the geometric entanglement, as measured by the logarithm of the overlap between a given state and its closest product state of blocks. We do this for a variety of…
Mechanical systems are often characterized only by their response to certain loads known from experiments or simulations. The obtained data can be used for various purposes: system analysis, design of mathematical models, or construction of…
This paper explores a common class of diagonal-norm summation by parts (SBP) operators found in the literature, which can be parameterized by an integer triple $(s,t,r)$ representing the interior order of accuracy ($2s)$, the boundary order…
We propose an algebraic formulation for two distinct quantum algorithms: a quantum classification algorithm and a quantum search algorithm with a non-uniform initial distribution, both based on Clifford algebras and spinorial…
Topological quantum computation has recently emerged as one of the most exciting approaches to constructing a fault-tolerant quantum computer. The proposal relies on the existence of topological states of matter whose quasiparticle…
Nonabelian topological orders host exotic anyons central to quantum computing, yet established realizations rely on case-by-case constructions that are often conceptually involved. In this work, we present a systematic construction of…
This dissertation discusses some properties of topologically ordered states as they appear in the setting of infinite quantum spin systems. We begin by studying the set of infinite volume ground states for Kitaev's abelian quantum double…
We derive an intuitive and novel method to represent nodes in a graph with special unitary operators, or quantum operators, which does not require parameter training and is competitive with classical methods on scoring similarity between…
Many abelian gauge theories in three dimensions flow to interacting conformal field theories in the infrared. We define a new class of local operators in these conformal field theories which are not polynomial in the fundamental fields and…
We study the Kane-Mele-Hubbard model with an additional inversion-symmetry-breaking term. Using the topological Hamiltonian approach, we calculate the $\mathbb{Z}_2$ invariant of the system as function of spin-orbit coupling, Hubbard…
