For arbitrary S, integer spins show a continuous 3D XY deconfinement transition in the small-anisotropy regime while half-integer spins stay in a U(1) Coulomb liquid; only S=3/2 retains a first-order transition at finite temperature because thermal monopoles round all continuous transitions into a 3

Degeneracies of energy levels in the Kitaev quantum double model for arbitrary discrete group G and genus are expressed via S-matrix elements, giving the exact partition function for finite systems.
Coupling to mesoscopic reservoirs generates temperature-increasing entropic barriers that suppress topological defect creation and transport, yielding three-regime correlation lengths in 1D Ising chains and double error reduction in finite-size 2D toric codes.
