Recorded summary
The authors construct Fibonacci string-net states with a dynamical preparation method, measure and braid anyons, and estimate chromatic polynomials for several graphs using quantum samples.
Recorded limitations
The experiments are proof of principle with error mitigation. The authors identify noise and comparison with classical approximation algorithms as unresolved barriers to a demonstrated quantum advantage.
