In extended Kitaev models on the honeycomb lattice, off-diagonal interactions (e.g. the $\Gamma, \Gamma^{'}$ terms) give rise to non-Kitaev quantum spin liquid (QSL) and several magnetically ordered phases. In the present work, we dope…
We show that states obtained from deep random Clifford circuits doped with non-Clifford phase gates (including T-gates and $\sqrt{\mathrm{T}}$-gates) can be disentangled completely, provided the number of non-Clifford gates is smaller or…
While many-body systems can host long-ranged entangled quantum spin liquids (QSLs), the ingredients for realizing these as ground states can be prohibitively difficult. In many circumstances, one requires (i) a constrained Hilbert space and…
Quantum spin liquids (QSLs) form an extremely unusual magnetic state in which the spins are highly correlated and fluctuate coherently down to the lowest temperatures, but without symmetry breaking and without the formation of any static…
