Topological Quantum Computing: Anyons, Braids, and Inherently Fault-Tolerant Qubits

Understand how 2D anyons with non-Abelian statistics enable quantum gates through braiding, why topological qubits are inherently protected from local errors, and where Microsoft's topological qubit program stands after the 2025 demonstration.
