Turaev-Viro invariants as an extended TQFT
read the original abstract
In this paper we show how one can extend Turaev-Viro invariants, defined for an arbitrary spherical fusion category $C$, to 3-manifolds with corners. We demonstrate that this gives an extended TQFT which conjecturally coincides with the Reshetikhin-Turaev TQFT corresponding to the Drinfeld center $Z(C)$. In the present paper we give a partial proof of this statement.

Algebraic locality and non-invertible Gauss laws
For non-invertible on-site symmetries on 2+1D lattices, Haag duality is preserved exactly only for cuspless regions (weak form with collar for cusped regions); disjoint additivity holds for group-based double models a...

Generalized Complexity Distances and Non-Invertible Symmetries
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.

Universal fusion category symmetries on tensor products of infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces
Any unitary fusion category can be realized as symmetries on tensor products of infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces via stabilized anyon chains, with equivalence between different chains of the same category.
