| contents | There are indications from the large-N analysis that multi-channel Kondo lattices have topological order. We use the coupled-wire construction to study the channel paramagnetic regime of a two-channel Kondo lattice model of spin-1/2 SU(2) spins. Using abelian bosonization we show that in presence of particle-hole symmetry, each wire is described by a [SO(5)$\times$Ising]/Z$_2\times$ SU(2) symmetric theory. When the wires are coupled together and the time-reversal symmetry is broken, the system exhibits topological order with fractional edge states and anyonic excitations. By an explicit construction of the Heisenberg algebra acting on the ground state manifold, we demonstrate that in presence of particle-hole symmetry, the ground state on a torus is eight-fold degenerate. This is also discussed using a heuristic approach which is applicable to other topologically ordered states. |
