abstract

Non-Abelian topological order (TO) enables topologically protected quantum computation with its anyonic quasiparticles. Recently, TO with $S_3$ gauge symmetry was identified as a sweet spot -- simple enough to emerge from finite-depth adaptive circuits yet powerful enough to support a universal topological gate-set. In these notes, we review how anyon braiding and measurement in $S_3$ TO are primitives for topological quantum computation and we explicitly demonstrate universality. These topological operations are made concrete in the $S_3$ quantum double lattice model, aided by the introduction of a generalized ribbon operator. This provides a roadmap for near-term quantum platforms.

  3. Spectral properties and coding transitions of Haar-random quantum codes

    quant-ph 2025-10 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Haar-random quantum codes lose correctability exactly at the hashing bound, and the spectral band structure predicts a higher detection threshold for postselected error correction.
