A Wilson line picture of the Levin-Wen partition functions

Lattice Hamiltonians (e.g. Levin and Wen 2005 Phys. Rev. B 71 045110) can be constructed that have a low energy description, that is a doubled Chern–Simons (CS) theory—two independent opposite chirality topological sectors. We show that the partition function of these theories is an expectation of W...
