Framework for hypergroup symmetries in relative QFTs establishes one-to-one correspondence between finite symmetries and finite-index conformal embeddings in rational chiral algebras, with implications for gluing left-right symmetries and boundary conditions in 2D CFTs.
The Ising fusion category lattice model features a symmetric critical phase equivalent to the Ising model, a categorical ferromagnetic phase with threefold degeneracy, and a critical categorical antiferromagnetic phase with fourfold degeneracy described by an Ising CFT.
The symmetry category of a 2D QFT with G-symmetry and anomaly k equals the twisted Hilbert space category Hilb^k(G), whose Drinfeld center is the twisted representation category of the conjugation groupoid C*-algebra, enabling braiding computations in the 3D SymTFT.
Candidate modular invariants and gaugings for continuous G-symmetries with anomaly k are obtained from +1 eigenspaces of semiclassical modular kernels in a BF+kCS SymTFT model.
A quantum mechanical framework is given for Hilbert and defect spaces of line operators in BF+kCS TQFT, with line operator action realized by convolution kernels and matches to Verlinde and semiclassical Hopf-link data.

Symmetry breaking phases and transitions in an Ising fusion category lattice model
The Ising fusion category lattice model features a symmetric critical phase equivalent to the Ising model, a categorical ferromagnetic phase with threefold degeneracy, and a critical categorical antiferromagnetic phase with fourfold degeneracy described by an Ising CFT.
