Abstract
We present a constructive proof that anyonic magnetic charges with fluxes in a nonsolvable finite group can perform universal quantum computations. The gates are built out of the elementary operations of braiding, fusion, and vacuum pair creation, supplemented by a reservoir of ancillas of known flux. Procedures for building the ancilla reservoir and for correcting leakage are also described. Finally, a universal qudit gate set, which is ideally suited for anyons, is presented. The gate set consists of classical computation supplemented by measurements of the X operator.

©2003 The American Physical Society (Received 1 October 2002; published 28 February 2003) The idea for universal classical computation with simple and perfect groups was initially suggested by Alexei Kitaev, to whom I am highly grateful. The author would also like to thank John Preskill, Jim Harrington, Meg Wessling, and James Chakan.
