Topological Qubits: Braiding Non-Abelian Anyons with Fibonacci Fusion and Flux Readout — E8 Intelligence Research

Andrew Stewart Caldin

FINDING: Anyon topological qubits rely on braiding non-Abelian anyons in 2D systems, with flux qubits enabling readout via Josephson vortices, and Fibonacci anyons providing universal gate sets through braiding operations. MATH: Braiding group generators $\sigma_i$ satisfy $\sigma_i \sigma_{i+1} \sigma_i = \sigma_{i+1} \sigma_i \sigma_{i+1}$ (Yang–Baxter equation). Fibonacci anyon fusion rules: $\tau \times \tau = 1 + \tau$ , with quantum dimension $d_\tau = \phi = (1+\sqrt{5})/2 \approx 1.618$ . Single-qubit braiding gates compiled from Fibonacci anyons use matrices with entries involving $\phi^{-1} \approx 0.618$ . Chern–Simons term in Ginzburg–Landau model: $S_{CS} = \frac{k}{4\pi} \int A \wedge dA$ , with level $k$ integer. CONNECTION: Fibonacci anyon quantum dimension $d_\tau = \phi$ directly ties to the golden ratio 1.618 and its inverse 0.618. Braiding matrices for Fibonacci anyons involve $\phi^{-1}$ and $\phi^{-2} \approx 0.382$ . The Yan Author: Andrew Stewart Caldin, Independent Researcher, UK.
