- Abstract summary: We show that duality in the Topological Holography formalism can be realized with a Sequential Quantum Circuit applied to the top boundary.
As a consequence, the Hamiltonians before and after the duality mapping have exactly the same spectrum in the corresponding symmetry sectors.

- Abstract: Two quantum theories which look different but are secretly describing the same low-energy physics are said to be dual to each other. When realized in the Topological Holography formalism, duality corresponds to changing the gapped boundary condition on the top boundary of a topological field theory, which determines the symmetry of the system, while not affecting the bottom boundary where all the dynamics take place. In this paper, we show that duality in the Topological Holography formalism can be realized with a Sequential Quantum Circuit applied to the top boundary. As a consequence, the Hamiltonians before and after the duality mapping have exactly the same spectrum in the corresponding symmetry sectors, and the entanglement in the corresponding low-energy eigenstates differs by at most an area law term.

Two gapped ground states of lattice Hamiltonians are in the same quantum phase of matter, or topological phase, if they can be connected by a constant-depth quantum circuit.
It is conjectured that the Levin-Wen string-net models exhaust all possible gapped phases with gappable boundary, and these phases are labeled by unitary modular tensor categories.

Ground state of the toric code, that of the two-dimensional class D superconductor, and the partition sum of the two-dimensional Ising model are dual to each other.
Connecting fermionic and bosonic systems, the duality construction is intrinsically non-local.
We propose a unified approach to this duality, whose main protagonist is a tensor network (TN) assuming the role of an intermediate translator.

one-dimensional topological superconductors [0.0]
We show the end-to-end, long-distance, bipartite squashed entanglement between the edges of a many-body system.
For the Kitaev chain in the entire topological phase, the edge squashed entanglement is quantized to log(2)/2, half the maximal Bell-state entanglement, and vanishes in the trivial phase.
Such topological squashed entanglement exhibits the correct scaling at the quantum phase transition, is stable in the presence of interactions, and is robust against disorder and local perturbations.

We find that the usual thermodynamic limit is not necessary in order to have the inequivalent representations needed for the existence of physically disjoint phases of the system.
This is a new type of inequivalence, due to the nontrivial topological structure of the phase space, that appears at finite volume.
