Abstract

In this paper, we study a family of fusion and modular systems realizing fusion categories Grothendieck equivalent to the representation category for \(so(2p+1)_2\). These categories describe non-abelian anyons dubbed `metaplectic anyons'. We obtain explicit expressions for all the \(F\)- and \(R\)-symbols. Based on these, we conjecture a classification for their monoidal equivalence classes from an analysis of their gauge invariants and define a function which gives us the number of classes.
