Abstract
In this talk, I will explain how to implement fault-tolerant non-Clifford gates in copies of toric code in two dimensions achieved by transiently switching to a non-Abelian topologically ordered phase by expanding earlier results by Bombin [arXiv.1810.09571] and Brown [SciAdv.aay4929]. This addresses the challenge of performing universal fault-tolerant quantum computation in purely two spatial dimensions and shows a new approach to quantum computation using non-Abelian phases. This talk is based on upcoming work in collaboration with A. Bauer, B.Brown, J. Magdalena de la Fuente, M. Webster and D. Williamson.
