Tensor Network Approach to Phase Transitions of a Non-Abelian Topological Phase

The non-Abelian topological phase with Fibonacci anyons minimally supports universal quantum computation. In order to investigate the possible phase transitions out of the Fibonacci topological phase, we propose a generic quantum-net wave function with two tuning parameters dual with each other, and the norm of the wave function can be exactly mapped into a partition function of the two-coupled phi(2)-state Potts models, where phi = (root 5 + 1)/2 is the golden ratio. By developing the tensor network representation of this wave function on a square lattice, we can accurately calculate the full phase diagram with the numerical methods of tensor networks. More importantly, it is found that the non-Abelian Fibonacci topological phase is enclosed by three distinct nontopological phases and their dual phases of a single phi(2)-state Potts model: the gapped dilute net phase, critical dense net phase, and spontaneous translation symmetry breaking gapped phase. We also determine the critical properties of the phase transitions among the Fibonacci topological phase and those nontopological phases.
