4 Quantum phase transitions time-reversal invariant systems topological order λ c some other (ordered) state λ How can we describe these phase transitions? no local order parameter no Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson theory complex field theoretical framework doubled (non-abelian) Chern-Simons theories Liquids on surfaces can provide a topological framework.
5 Time-reversal invariant liquids chiral excitations anyonic liquid L flux excitations non-chiral anyonic liquid L
6 Flux excitations anyonic liquid flux through hole flux through tube

8 Abelian liquids loop gas / toric code Semion fusion rules s s =1 loop gas s s
9 Extreme limits no flux through holes close holes two sheets The two sheets ground state exhibits topological order. In the toric code model this is the flux-free, loop gas ground state
10 Extreme limits no flux through tubes pinch off tubes decoupled spheres The decoupled spheres ground state exhibits no topological order. In the toric code model this is the fully polarized, classically ordered state.
11 Connecting the limits: a microscopic model H = J p δ φ(p),1 J e δ l(e),1 plaquettes p edges e Varying the couplings J e /J p we can connect the two extreme limits. Semions (Abelian): Toric code in a magnetic field / loop gas with loop tension. J e /J p

26 Summary A topological framework for the description of topological phases and their phase transitions. Unifying description of loop gases and string nets. Quantum phase transition is driven by fluctuations of topology. Visualization of a more abstract mathematical description, namely doubled non-abelian Chern-Simons theories. The 2D quantum phase transition out of a non-abelian phase is still an open issue: A continuous transition in a novel universality class? C. Gils, ST, A. Kitaev, A. Ludwig, M. Troyer, and Z.
