• Abstract summary: We propose a scheme for detecting the hidden off-diagonal long-range order (HODLRO) characterizing Laughlin states. This is achieved by large-scale numerical density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) simulations based on matrix product states. We confirm the characteristic power-law scaling of HODLRO, with an exponent $frac1nu = 2$, and show that its detection requires only a few thousand snapshots.

• Abstract: Topological phase transitions go beyond Ginzburg and Landau's paradigm of spontaneous symmetry breaking and occur without an associated local order parameter. Instead, such transitions can be characterized by the emergence of non-local order parameters, which require measurements on extensively many particles simultaneously - an impossible venture in real materials. On the other hand, quantum simulators have demonstrated such measurements, making them prime candidates for an experimental confirmation of non-local topological order. Here, building upon the recent advances in preparing few-particle fractional Chern insulators using ultracold atoms and photons, we propose a realistic scheme for detecting the hidden off-diagonal long-range order (HODLRO) characterizing Laughlin states. Furthermore, we demonstrate the existence of this hidden order in fractional Chern insulators, specifically for the $\nu=\frac{1}{2}$-Laughlin state in the isotropic Hofstadter-Bose-Hubbard model. This is achieved by large-scale numerical density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) simulations based on matrix product states, for which we formulate an efficient sampling procedure providing direct access to HODLRO in close analogy to the proposed experimental scheme. We confirm the characteristic power-law scaling of HODLRO, with an exponent $\frac{1}{\nu} = 2$, and show that its detection requires only a few thousand snapshots. This makes our scheme realistically achievable with current technology and paves the way for further analysis of non-local topological orders, e.g. in topological states with non-Abelian anyonic excitations.
