Mutual Chern-Simons Landau-Ginzburg theory for continuous quantum phase transition of Z2 topological order
In this paper, we develop an effective mutual Chern-Simons Landau-Ginzburg (MCSLG) theory to describe the continuous topological quantum phase transition (TQPT). In particular, we consider the TQPT between a spin-polarized phase (a state without topological order) and a Z[subscript 2] topologically...
