Sequential circuit invariants detect non-invertible symmetry anomalies and characterize non-Abelian fermionic loops plus a new mixed topological order in (3+1)D.
An SU(12)-based model unifies quark color-flavor and lepton flavor, generates Yukawas via instantons, solves strong CP with massless quarks, implements a flavored seesaw, and stabilizes the proton via a discrete gauge symmetry X = B - 3(L_i + L_j - L_k).
Positivity of gravitational path integral inner products requires non-perturbative instabilities in axion wormholes that break shift symmetry, implying a sharp axion weak gravity conjecture with precise constants.
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.
A method is given to construct UV anyonic chain lattice models from SymTFT data realizing IR phases and transitions with non-invertible symmetries, illustrated with Rep(S3).
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.
Constructs Symmetry TFTs for M-theory compactifications by reducing the topological sector of 11d supergravity on the boundary of X using differential cohomology, with applications to 7d SYM and 5d SCFTs confirmed via IIB 5-brane webs.
BF Lagrangians for non-abelian DW theories (e.g. dihedral groups) are obtained by gauging H^(0) symmetries of abelian DW theories, with twisted cohomologies and condensation-defect operators verified by character-table linking.
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.
Imaginary wormholes and the IDB imply that towers of BPS EFT instantons generate infinitely many superpotential terms that break non-invertible axion shift symmetries in N=1 axiverse models.
Using weight polytopes of irreducible representations, a finite list of symmetric moduli spaces satisfies the SDC decay rates; most embed from an E8(8) EFT but three cannot be obtained from string or M-theory compactifications.
An 't Hooft anomaly at general imaginary baryon chemical potential constrains the QCD chiral transition to three minimal CFT scenarios, with the favored one for N_f >= 3 featuring a conformal manifold of theta_B-dependent universality classes with an exactly marginal operator tied to baryon density.
Symmetry plus perturbative gravitational scattering consistency requires the abelian charge lattice to be completely populated by single-particle states for SU(N) with N≥3 and SO(N) with N≥5.
A modified semiclassical holographic dictionary is used to construct an extended gravitational path integral that factorizes, reproduces the Page curve for entropy, and includes operators for baby universe states.
A survey of non-invertible symmetries with constructions in the Ising model and applications to neutral pion decay and other systems.
A thermodynamic treatment of charged black holes is proposed to connect swampland conjectures to the dark dimension and dark matter using dynamical cosmological constant and quasi-static scalar fields.
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.
Lecture notes that systematically introduce higher-form symmetries, SymTFTs, higher-group symmetries, and related concepts in QFT using gauge theory examples.
