Chiral simple current extensions on the worldsheet reproduce and generalize obstructions to gauging center one-form symmetries in 6d and 8d string compactifications while clarifying BPS particle requirements upon circle reduction.
Superconductors are bosonic at low energy yet carry a gravito-magnetic anomaly from fermion parity gauging that forbids trivial massive phases in 3D and 4D.
Upper bounds are placed on the order of enhanced discrete gauge symmetries in supersymmetric supergravity theories with 8 or more supercharges, with some bounds saturated by string theory examples.
This review summarizes transformative examples of generalized symmetries in QFT and their applications to anomalies and dynamics.
Lecture notes that systematically introduce higher-form symmetries, SymTFTs, higher-group symmetries, and related concepts in QFT using gauge theory examples.
