Selected writings

Emphasis that the description of anyons by braided fusion categories had remained folklore, and a list of sufficient conditions that would have to be demonstrated:

• Sachin J. Valera, Fusion Structure from Exchange Symmetry in (2+1)-Dimensions, Annals of Physics 429 (2021) [

  arXiv:2004.06282, doi:10.1016/j.aop.2021.168471]

On braided fusion categories and skein relations:

• Anup Poudel, Sachin J. Valera, Skein-Theoretic Methods for Unitary Fusion Categories [arXiv:2008.07129]

These make up the thesis:

• Sachin J. Valera, Topological Quantum and Skein-Theoretic Aspects of Braided Fusion Categories [hdl:11250/2770245]

Exposition and review:

• Sachin Valera, A Quick Introduction to the Algebraic Theory of Anyons, talk at CQTS Inituial Researcher Meeting (Sep 2022) [pdf]
