Levin-Wen string-net models provide a construction of (2+1)D topologically ordered phases of matter with anyonic localized excitations described by the {Drinfeld} center of a unitary fusion category. Anyon condensation is a mechanism for phase transitions between (2+1)D topologically ordered phases. We construct an extension of Levin-Wen models in which tuning a parameter implements anyon condensation. We also describe the classification of anyons in Levin-Wen models via representation theory of the tube algebra, and use a variant of the tube algebra to classify low-energy localized excitations in the condensed phase.

  1. Self-dual $S_3$ gauge theory in 2+1d: lattice model and topological phase transitions

    cond-mat.str-el 2026-08 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    A new sign-problem-free lattice Hamiltonian realizes the S3 quantum double with electric-magnetic duality as translation, yielding a tetracritical Ising boundary and three predicted topological transitions.

    hep-th 2026-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Codimension-2 defects in 2+1D topological order are classified by representations of new comodule tube algebras over the weak Hopf tube algebras of boundary and domain wall excitations.
