abstract

A large class of topological orders can be understood and classified using the string-net condensation picture. These topological orders can be characterized by a set of data (N, d_i, F^{ijk}_{lmn}, \delta_{ijk}). We describe a way to detect this kind of topological order using only the ground state wave function. The method involves computing a quantity called the ``topological entropy'' which directly measures the quantum dimension D = \sum_i d^2_i.

Probing chiral topological states with permutation defects

quant-ph · 2025-12-04 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

Permutation defects between wavefunction replicas yield multipartite entanglement measures that capture the chiral central charge from bulk states in chiral topological phases.

Quantum Liouville Cosmology

hep-th · 2025-12-17 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Timelike Liouville disk path integrals in fixed K-representation produce Hartle-Hawking-like states, a conjecture for all-loop wavefunctions, and a K-independent inner product for 2D quantum cosmology.

de Sitter Vacua & pUniverses

hep-th · 2026-05-04 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

The p-Schwinger model on de Sitter space supports p distinct de Sitter-invariant vacua that are Hadamard, and coupling a multi-flavor version to gravity yields a semiclassical de Sitter saddle at large N_f.
