Non-abelian anyons in programmable lattices
Non-abelian anyons are conjectured topological quasi-particles which shatter our understanding of quantum statistics. Exchanging two such quasi-particles can transform the quantum state in a way that cannot be undone without unwinding the exchange. The exotic properties of non-abelian anyons have puzzled researchers for decades, and the robustness associated with their statistics makes them an appealing platform for topological quantum computing. Despite broad research over the past decades, non-abelian anyons defy a conclusive experimental observation. The goal of NON-ABELIAN is the realization and exploration of non-abelian anyonic quasi-particles. We will focus on two paradigmatic…
