1. Braid group statistics and exchange matrices of non-abelian anyons : with representations in Clifford algebra
University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)Abstract : When leaving classical physics and entering the realm of quantum physics, there are many new concepts being introduced. One of the most fundamental ideas in quantum mechanics is that particles no longer have exact known positions, but instead expected values and prob- abilities. READ MORE

2. Kitaev models for topologically ordered phases of matter
University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap och fysikAbstract : Condensed matter physics is the study of the macroscopic and microscopic properties of condensed phases of matter. For quite some time, Landau’s symmetry breaking theory was believed to describe and explain the nature of any phase transition. READ MORE

3. Non-Abelian Anyons: Statistical Repulsion and Topological Quantum Computation
University essay from KTH/Matematik (Avd.)Abstract : As opposed to classical mechanics, quantum mechanical particles can be truly identical and lead to new and interesting phenomena. Identical particles can be of different types, determined by their exchange symmetry, which in turn gives rise to statistical repulsion. READ MORE

4. Non-abelian braiding in abelian lattice models from lattice dislocations
University essay from Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap och fysikAbstract : Topological order is a new field of research involving exotic physics. Among other things it has been suggested as a means for realising fault-tolerant quantum computation. Topological degeneracy, i.e. READ MORE

5. A lattice model for topological phases
University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap och fysikAbstract : Matter exists in many different phases, for example in solid state or in liquid phase. There are also phases in which the ordering of atoms is the same, but which differ in some other respect, for example ferromagnetic and paramagnetic states. READ MORE
