Homotopy posets assemble into an oriented long exact sequence analogue and form layers of a categorical Postnikov tower, with Postnikov-complete (∞,∞)-categories identified as the limit of (∞,n)-categories along truncation functors.
New dualities in 3d TQFTs are derived via non-invertible anyon condensation, generalizing level-rank dualities and providing new presentations for parafermion theories, c=1 orbifolds, and SU(2)_N.
Constructs non-invertible duality defects for one-form symmetries in 3+1D by partial gauging, derives fusion rules, proves incompatibility with trivial gapped phases, and realizes explicitly in Maxwell theory and lattice models.
Constructs non-invertible duality defects in (2+1)d QFTs from half-spacetime gauging of 2-group symmetries and derives explicit fusion rules with examples in U(1)^3 gauge theories.
Parameterized families of toric code Hamiltonians realize em-duality pumping and higher-order anyon pumping, diagnosed by topological pumping into tensor-network bond spaces and corner modes.
Pauli stabilizer codes are classified via algebraic L-theory, yielding a bulk-boundary map to Clifford QCAs and a structural comparison with continuum framed TQFTs.
Non-invertible symmetries define quantum gates with generalized complexity distances, and simple objects in symmetry categories turn out to be computationally complex in concrete 4D and 2D QFT examples.
Higher gauging of 1-form symmetries on surfaces in 2+1d QFT yields condensation defects whose fusion rules involve 1+1d TQFTs and realizes every 0-form symmetry in TQFTs.
A coherent dual of an object lifts to a coherent dual of a bimodule over Frobenius algebras; zigzag 2-isos need special Frobenius sections, and special Frobenius algebras in 2Vect are rigid.
Unitary QFTs are determined up to unitary isomorphism by closed-manifold partition functions; every reflection-positive partition function comes from a unitary QFT, so spatial wormholes do not break Hilbert-space factorization once the full charged spectrum is included.
(-2)-form symmetries are realized as non-genuine defects in the Symmetry TFT and relate theories with different anomaly or associator data.
The XY-plaquette model is claimed to possess a continuous SO(2) non-invertible duality symmetry at arbitrary coupling, realized by open condensation defects in its symmetry TFT.
A survey of non-invertible symmetries with constructions in the Ising model and applications to neutral pion decay and other systems.
Lecture notes explain non-invertible generalized symmetries in QFTs as topological defects arising from stacking with TQFTs and gauging diagonal symmetries, plus their action on charges and the SymTFT framework.
This review summarizes transformative examples of generalized symmetries in QFT and their applications to anomalies and dynamics.
