Journal ArticleDOI

Non-Abelian Anyons and Topological Quantum Computation

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the mathematical underpinnings of topological quantum computation and the physics of the subject are addressed, using the ''ensuremath{ u}=5∕2$ fractional quantum Hall state as the archetype of a non-Abelian topological state enabling fault-tolerant quantum computation.

Non-Abelian Anyons and Topological Quantum Computation

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the mathematical underpinnings of topological quantum computation and the physics of the subject using the nu=5/2 fractional quantum Hall state as the archetype of a non-Abelian topological state enabling fault-tolerant quantum computation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Observation of half-integer thermal Hall conductance

TL;DR: In this paper, the thermal Hall conductance of several quantum Hall states was measured at the first excited Landau level and was shown to be compatible with a half-integer value of 2.5κ0, demonstrating its non-Abelian nature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anyons and the quantum Hall effect - a pedagogical review

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the concept of anyons, explain why the observation of the fractional quantum Hall effect almost forces the notion of anyon upon us, and review several possible ways for a direct observation of physics of non-abelian anyons.
