Abstract

We consider various aspects of Kitaev's toric code model on a plane in the C*-algebraic approach to quantum spin systems on a lattice. In particular, we show that elementary excitations of the ground state can be described by localized endomorphisms of the observable algebra. The structure of these endomorphisms is analyzed in the spirit of the Doplicher–Haag–Roberts program (specifically, through its generalization to infinite regions as considered by Buchholz and Fredenhagen). Most notably, the statistics of excitations can be calculated in this way. The excitations can equivalently be described by the representation theory of [Formula: see text], i.e. Drinfel'd's quantum double of the group algebra of ℤ2.
