After years of work, we are very happy to see our manuscript out that shows how fault-tolerant logical operations in #quantumcomputing based on #topologically-ordered phases of matter can be usefully interpreted as instances of #anyoncondensation.
We present a constructive theory for anyon condensation and, in tandem, illustrate our theory explicitly with examples of fault-tolerant logical operations for the #colorcode model.
We show that different condensation processes are associated with a general class of #domainwalls, which can exist in both space- and time-like directions. This class includes semi-transparent domain walls that condense certain bosonic subsets of anyons.
We use our theory to classify #topological objects and design novel fault-tolerant #logicgates for the color code.
As a final example, we also argue that dynamical #Floquetcodes can be viewed as a series of condensation operations.
We propose a general construction for realising planar dynamically driven codes based on condensation operations on the color code. We use our construction to introduce a new Calderbank-Shor Steane-type Floquet code that we call the #Floquetcolorcode.
On a higher level, it is yet another example how fruitful the study of the interface between #quantuminformation theory and #condensedmatter physics can be.
After my departmental colloquium, the first author approached me with a compelling idea how the comprehensive picture of anyon condensation can be completed.
