The spin network quantum simulator relies on the su(2) representation ring (or its q-deformed counterpart at q= root of unity) and its basic features naturally include (multipartite) entanglement and braiding. In particular, q-deformed spin…
Quantum spin liquids are exotic quantum phases of matter that do not order even at zero temperature. While there are several toy models and simple Hamiltonians that could host a quantum spin liquid as their ground state, it is very rare to…

Z2 spin liquids have topological order. One manifestation of this is that a Z2 spin liquid on a torus exhibits a four-fold degeneracy. Recent numerical evidence has argued for the existence of a spin liquid ground state in the Hubbard model…
