ace.
It is constructed using combinatorial data encoded by a graph embedded into a closed oriented surface, ensuring robustness against a wide range of errors.
Beyond applications in quantum computing, the model has remarkable connections with combinatorics, the study of mapping class groups, Hopf algebra representation theory, and topological quantum field theories.
In this talk, based on joint work with U. Krähmer, we present a generalisation of the Kitaev model to arbitrary finite-dimensional Hopf alge
