Article Abstract
Anyons are quasiparticles that keep a robust memory of particle exchanges via a braiding phase factor. When an anyon excitation is emitted toward a quantum point contact (QPC) in a fractional quantum Hall (FQH) fluid, this memory translates into tunneling events that may occur long after the anyon excitation has exited the QPC. In this work, we used triggered anyon pulses incident on a QPC in a filling factor ν = 1/3 FQH fluid to investigate anyon tunneling in the time domain. We observed that braiding increases the tunneling timescale, which is set by the temperature and the anyon scaling dimension that characterizes the edge-state dynamics. Our experiment introduces time-domain measurements for characterizing the braiding phase and scaling dimension of anyons.

Chiral symmetry is broken by typical interactions in lattice models, but the statistical interactions embodied in the anyon-Hubbard model are an exception. This is an example for a correlated hopping model where chiral symmetry protects a degenerate zero-energy subspace. Complementary to the traditional approach of anyon braiding in real space, we adiabatically evolve the statistical parameter and find nontrivial Berry phases and holonomies in this chiral subspace.

Efficient mixing of fluids is essential in many practical applications to achieve homogeneity. For microscopic systems, however, both diffusion and turbulence are ineffective methods to achieve chaotic mixing due to the low Reynolds number, hence either active stirring or inducing turbulence through geometric boundary effects are generally implemented. Here, we study a modified chiral Vicsek model, where active microswimmers act as moving rods, stirring the surrounding substrate.

Current integrated photonics typically utilizes the dynamical phase associated resonant on-chip components, leading to bandwidth-limited devices with perturbation-sensitive performance. Multi-mode geometric phase matrix, arising from the non-Abelian holonomy which is a non-resonant and global effect, has been recently introduced to integrated photonics for the design of broadband and robust on-chip photonic devices. Achieving reconfigurable on-chip non-Abelian photonic devices is a crucial step towards practical applications, which however remains elusive.

Addressing the urgent need for lightweight and reusable energy-absorbing materials in aviation impact resistance, this study introduces an innovative multi-directional braided metamaterial design enabled by 4D printing technology. This approach overcomes the dual challenges of intricate manufacturing processes and the limited functionality inherent to traditional textile preforms. Six distinct braided structural units (types 1-6) were devised based on periodic trigonometric functions (Y = A sin(12πX)), and integrated with shape memory polylactic acid (SMP-PLA), thereby achieving a synergistic combination of topological architecture and adaptive response characteristics.

Venous sinus stenting is a promising treatment for intracranial venous disorders, such as idiopathic intracranial hypertension and pulsatile tinnitus, associated with transverse sinus stenosis. The VIVA Stent System (VSS) is a novel self-expanding braided venous stent designed to navigate tortuous cerebral venous anatomy. This preclinical study assessed the safety, thrombogenicity, and performance of the VSS in a swine model.
