stub for braid group statistics (again, for the moment mainly in order to record a reference)

In the process, I have added this reference:

• Ville Lahtinen, Jiannis K. Pachos, A Short Introduction to Topological Quantum Computation, SciPost Phys. 3, 021 (2017) (arXiv:1705.04103)

Have been expanding the list of references a little: more of the original articles, and more reviews.

On the actual experimental confirmation of anyons, it seems the first robust result is from last year(!):

am now adding references on the other kind of anyon excitations, not in quantum Hall liquids but in topological superconductors. (Will move this into a separate page, to be !include-ed here.)

So far I have:

Original proposal:

• N. Read, Dmitry Green, Paired states of fermions in two dimensions with breaking of parity and time-reversal symmetries, and the fractional quantum Hall effect, Phys. Rev. B61:10267, 2000 (arXiv:cond-mat/9906453)

Review:

via Majorana zero modes restricted to edges of topological insulators:

• Biao Lian, Xiao-Qi Sun, Abolhassan Vaezi, Xiao-Liang Qi, and Shou-Cheng Zhang, Topological quantum computation based on chiral Majorana fermions, PNAS October 23, 2018 115 (43) 10938-10942; first published October 8, 2018 (doi:10.1073/pnas.1810003115)
