Chiral Parafermions in Floquet $\mathbb{Z}_N$ Topological Order

Floquet topological order (FTO) extends topology beyond equilibrium, giving rise to phenomena, such as the dynamical transmutation of anyons. Here, we realize $\mathbb{Z}_N$ FTO in a generalized Kitaev honeycomb model with clock degrees of freedom using a three-step periodic drive. The driven system admits an emergent...

Non-invertible Lattice 1-Form Symmetries for Non-Abelian Topological Order

Higher-form symmetries generalize conventional global symmetries and act on lower-dimensional submanifolds of a quantum system. While Abelian topological phases can be organized by 1-form symmetries that form a group, non-Abelian topological phases based on finite groups require 1-form symmetry operators governed by no...

Non-Abelian Anyon Condensation: a Path-Integral Monte Carlo Approach

Transitions out of non-Abelian topological order are difficult to describe in microscopic quantum models with numerical methods that remain tractable at large scales. We develop a sign-free path-integral framework for Kitaev quantum doubles $\mathcal D(G)$ by organizing single-link perturbations in terms of non-inverti...
