• Abstract summary: The topological entanglement entropy is used to measure long-range quantum correlations in the ground state of topological phases. Here we obtain closed form expressions for topological entropy of (2+1)- and (3+1)-dimensional loop gas models. We conjecture a general property of these $mathcalS$-matrices, with proofs provided in many special cases.

• Abstract: The topological entanglement entropy is used to measure long-range quantum correlations in the ground state of topological phases. Here we obtain closed form expressions for topological entropy of (2+1)- and (3+1)-dimensional loop gas models, both in the bulk and at their boundaries, in terms of the data of their input fusion categories and algebra objects. Central to the formulation of our results are generalized $\mathcal{S}$-matrices. We conjecture a general property of these $\mathcal{S}$-matrices, with proofs provided in many special cases. This includes constructive proofs for categories up to rank 5.

  Two types of boundary conditions give rise to two different exponential decay regimes of the Casimir energy at large distances. Non-perturbative numerical simulations and analytical arguments show such an exponential decay for Dirichlet boundary conditions of SU(2) gauge theories.

  An entanglement measure based on the Fubini-Study metric has been recently introduced by Cocchiarella and co-workers. We present the Gaussian Entanglement Measure (GEM), a generalization of geometric entanglement measure for multimode Gaussian states. By providing a computable multipartite entanglement measure for systems with a large number of degrees of freedom, we show that our definition can be used to obtain insights into a free bosonic field theory.

  We show the presence of a topological phase transition that is of a different universality class than that observed in stroboscopic projective circuits. We find that this entanglement transition is well identified by a combination of the bipartite entanglement entropy and the topological entanglement entropy.

  topological random fractals exhibit a robust mobility gap, support quantized conductance and represent a well-defined thermodynamic phase of matter. Our results establish topological random fractals as the most complex systems known to support nontrivial band topology with their distinct unique properties.

  We argue that all non-chiral fermionic topological phases in 2+1D are characterized by a set of tensors $(Nij_k,Fij_k,Fijm,alphabeta_kln,chidelta,n_i,d_i)$. Several examples with q-type anyon excitations are discussed, including the Fermionic topological phase from Tambara-gami category for $mathbbZ_2N$.

  We introduce a pseudo entropy extension of topological entanglement entropy called topological pseudo entropy.

  We build a class of frustration-free and gapped Hamiltonians based on discrete abelian gauge groups. The resulting models have a ground state degeneracy that can be either a topological invariant or an extensive quantity. We analyze excitations and identify anyon-like excitations that account for the topological entanglement entropy.

  We study topological properties of bound pairs of photons in spatially-modulated qubit arrays coupled to a waveguide. For open boundary condition, we find exotic topological bound-pair edge states with radiative losses. By joining two structures with different spatial modulations, we find long-lived interface states which may have applications in storage and quantum information processing.
