Lattice CPT symmetry upgrades the Onsager chiral symmetry anomaly from order two to infinite order, better matching the continuum chiral anomaly, with discussion of associated 2+1d SPT phases.
Introduces the twisted Villain model to realize exact T-duality on the lattice for fibred manifolds, recovering bundle-flux exchange and defining topological defects via half-gauging.
Exotic theta terms in 2+1d fractonic φ-theory induce generalized Witten effects, with vortex operators gaining momentum subsystem charge (quadrupolar for the foliated case).
A bosonic lattice model realizes exact chiral symmetry and its anomaly in 3+1d, with the continuum limit a compact boson theory with axion-like coupling.
Ultra-local lattice Maxwell theory with a theta term has exact SL(2,Z) duality after a non-local redefinition of the S-transformation, with Wilson and 't Hooft loops transforming up to a self-linking phase.
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.
