Hypergraph States in SU(N)1, N odd prime, Chern-Simons Theory

Abstract

Graph states and hypergraph states can be constructed from products of basic operations that appear in SU(N)1. The level-rank dual of a theorem of Salton, Swingle, and Walter implies that these operations can be prepared topologically in the n-torus Hilbert space of Chern-Simons theory for N neq 5 mod 4. For SU(N)1, N = 5 mod 4, only stabilizer states can be prepared on the n-torus Hilbert space, which restricts the construction to graph states.
