abstract

Recent numerical results point to the existence of a conformally invariant twist defect in the critical 3d Ising model. In this note we show that this fact is supported by both epsilon expansion and conformal bootstrap calculations. We find that our results are in good agreement with the numerical data. We also make new predictions for operator dimensions and OPE coefficients from the bootstrap approach. In the process we derive universal bounds on one-dimensional conformal field theories and conformal line defects.

Non-Invertible Duality Defects in 3+1 Dimensions

hep-th · 2021-11-01 · unverdicted · novelty 8.0

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.

Crosscap Defects

hep-th · 2026-04-21 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0 · 2 refs

Crosscap defects are introduced in CFTs via Z2 quotients, with crossing equations derived and CFT data computed in the O(N) model at Gaussian and Wilson-Fisher points showing absent displacement and tilt operators for generic p.

Fortuitous Universality of Bose-Kondo Impurities

cond-mat.str-el · 2026-04-08 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

Bose-Kondo impurities with spins S=1/2, 1, and 3/2 each flow to distinct stable interacting conformal defects despite sharing the same symmetry and anomaly.

When Symmetries Twist: Anomaly Inflow on Monodromy Defects

hep-th · 2026-05-15 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0 · 2 refs

Anomaly inflow on monodromy defects in anomalous symmetry theories defines them as domain walls inducing topological order, yielding protected chiral edge modes and adiabatic pumping of gapless degrees of freedom, verified in chiral symmetry examples on continuum and lattice.
