Topological Order: From Long-Range Entangled Quantum Matter to a Unified Origin of Light and Electrons
We review the progress in the last 20–30 years, during which we discovered that there are many new phases of matter that are beyond the traditional Landau symmetry breaking theory. We discuss new “topological” phenomena, such as topological degeneracy that reveals the existence of those new phases—...
