• Abstract: A braiding operation defines a real-space renormalization group for anyonic chains. The resulting renormalization group flow can be used to define a quantum scaling limit by operator-algebraic renormalization. It is illustrated how this works for the Ising chain, also known as transverse-field Ising model. In this case, the quantum scaling limit results in the vacuum state of the well-known Ising CFT. Distinguishing between the braiding and its inverse is directly related to the chiral sectors of the Ising CFT. This has direct implications for the simulation of CFTs on topological quantum computers.

• Entanglement swapping in critical quantum spin chains [0.0]
  Transfer of quantum information between many-qubit states is a subject of fundamental importance in quantum science and technology. We consider entanglement swapping in critical quantum spin chains, where the entanglement between the two chains is induced solely by the Bell-state measurements. We show that the swapped entanglement exhibits a logarithmic scaling, whose coefficient takes a universal value determined by the scaling dimension of the boundary condition changing operator.

  We present a novel regularization of the infraredally free massive QFT that emerges at the Berezenski-Kosterlitz-Thouless transition through a hard core loop-gas model. We demonstrate that without the need for fine-tuning, it can reproduce the universal step-scaling function of the classical lattice XY model in the massive phase as we approach the phase transition.

  We show that a new class of exact holographic codes, extending the previously proposed hyperinvariant tensor networks into quantum codes, produce the correct boundary correlation functions. This approach yields a dictionary between logical states in the bulk and the critical renormalization group flow of boundary states.

It remains to be determined whether they can be applied to state-of-the-art lattice quantum chromodynamics calculations.

  In one dimension the many-body localization transition is accompanied by a spin freezing mechanism which causes chain breakings in the thermodynamic limit. We show that such chain breakings directly probe the typical localization length, and that their scaling properties at the MBL transition agree with the Kosterlitz-Thouless scenario predicted by renormalization group approaches.
