Magic and Majorana Fermions in Quantum Computing, Topological Matter, and Dynamics
… quantum error-correcting codes and fermionic topological quantum matter. We provide a categorisation of anyonic excitations, boundaries and “twist defects” (lattice defects that can store quantum information) in these codes. Finding that twist defects can store logical Majorana fermions, as …

Stability of Topological States and Crystalline Solids
… ice, the transition between different phases of matter underpins our exploitation of materials. Both a quantum and a classical phase can undergo an instability into another state. In this thesis, we study the stability of matter in both contexts: topological states and crystalline solids. We …

The Interplay of Magnetism and Topology in Topological Insulators
The conductive helical edge states in topological insulators (TIs) have been lauded over the last decade as a means towards the development of low-energy electronic and spintronic devices. Unfortunately, development of TI devices have been hampered by issues such as impurities and difficulty in …

Dynamics of frustrated magnetic systems – Emergent fractals and anomalous magnetic noise in spin ice
… minimal energy states, that can exhibit topological order. The dynamical properties of topological systems, in particular those that host fractionalised excitations, is currently a topic of intense research activity. This thesis focuses on one specific instance of a topological frustrated …
