Abstract
We construct a constant depth quantum circuit that maps between Morita-equivalent string-net models. Due to its constant depth and unitarity, the circuit cannot alter the topological order, which demonstrates that Morita-equivalent string nets are in the same phase. The circuit is constructed from an invertible bimodule category connecting the two input fusion categories of the relevant string-net models, acting as a generalized Fourier transform for fusion categories. The circuit not only acts on the ground state subspace but also acts unitarily on the full Hilbert space when supplemented with ancillas.
