On Freedman's lattice models for topological phases
Freedman proposes a family of Hamiltonians $H_{0,l}$ which define quantum loop gas models on any celluated compact surface. We study the simplest nontrivial cases: celluations of the torus. Our numerical data support Freedman's conjecture, but the conjectured space of ground states does not come out in full.
