Applications of graph theory to quantum computation

Systems with topologically ordered ground states are considered to be promising candidates for quantum memories. These systems are characterised by a degenerate ground eigenspace separated by an energy gap from the rest of the spectrum. Consequently, topologically ordered systems are resilient to lo...
