* ABSTRACT | |||||||
Fractional quantum Hall states were one of the first settings in which concepts like fractional exchange statistics was introduced, as well as concepts like topological order. A generalization of the abelian fractional exchange statistics to non-abelian exchange statistics has receive a lot of attention in the last decade because of the novel topological properties, in particular interesting for the possibility of performing topologically protected quantum computing. We show how one by looking at fractional quantum Hall states on a thin torus can gain a very intuitive and appealing picture for the origin of some of these topological properties. |
