Abstract

Systems supporting non Abelian statistics are promising platforms for future quantum information processing applications Finding physical realizations of such systems is at the forefront of condensed matter physics In this talk I will describe a novel route to achieve this goal I will explain how defects in Abelian topological phases can support protected zero modes with non Abelian properties In the presence of such defects the ground state is multiply degenerate One can define a
