What is topological order ?
Simply speaking, an order beyond Landau-Ginzburg paradigm Degenerate ground states below a gap
No local order parameter can distinguish them.

Our study: Numerical demonstration of the proposal
Why is numerical check necessary? In the original papers, an idealized situation was considered. solvable models, correlation length = 0, no finite-size effect
Numerical check is a step toward more general cases.
