Family unification models from E7 cosets have no global sigma model anomalies because the torsion parts of their bordism groups vanish, as computed via the Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence, including when isotropy subgroups are gauged.
A survey of non-invertible symmetries with constructions in the Ising model and applications to neutral pion decay and other systems.

What makes spacetime spin in string theory?
GSO projection consistency in Type II string theory requires the target space X to admit a spin structure (or G-equivariant spin structure for orbifolds), identified by computing the mixed bordism group Ω₃^spin(Bℤ₂ × X) and classifying corresponding theta angles.
