Continuum field theory of three-dimensional topological orders with emergent fermions and braiding statistics

Universal topological data of topologically ordered phases can be captured by topological quantum field theory in continuous space time by taking the limit of low energies and long wavelengths. While previous continuum field-theoretical studies of topological orders in three-dimensional (3D) real sp...
