Abstract

I will give an introduction to the Kitaev quantum double models for Hopf C*-algebras. To this end I will introduce a graphical tensor-network notation to represent the algebraic objects and axioms. Using this notation I will then present the vertex- and plaquette symmetries of the model and discuss their interaction and the excitation structure they give rise to.
