Tensor-product representations for string-net condensed states

We show that general string-net condensed states have a natural representation in terms of tensor product states (TPSs). These TPSs are built from local tensors. They can describe both states with short-range entanglement (such as the symmetry-breaking states) and states with long-range entanglement...
