Why should anyone care about computing with anyons?

In this talk Jiannis Pachos discusses a variety of different topics starting from characterizing knot invariants, their quantum simulation with exotic particles called anyons and finally the possible realization of anyons in the laboratory.
Combining physics, mathematics and computer science, topological quantum computation is a rapidly expanding field of research focused on the exploration of quantum evolutions that are resilient to errors.
