In boundary conformal field theories, global symmetries can be broken by boundary conditions, generating a homogeneous conformal manifold. We investigate these geometries, showing they have a coset structure, and give fully worked out examples in the case of free fields of spin zero and one-half. These results give a simple illustration of the salient features of conformal manifolds while generalising to interacting and more intricate setups. Our work was inspired by [2203.17157]

  1. Non-Local Conserved Currents and Continuous Non-Invertible Symmetries

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Non-local conserved currents attached to topological lines generate continuous non-invertible symmetries in 1+1d CFTs, with new examples in SU(2)_k WZW and minimal model products.

  2. Higher Structures on Boundary Conformal Manifolds: Higher Berry Phase and Boundary Conformal Field Theory

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A 2-form higher Berry connection on boundary conformal manifolds is defined from boundary-condition-changing operator OPE phases; it reproduces the B-field and WZ term in string theory examples.

  3. Tilts from 2-Groups

    hep-th 2026-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Line operators charged under the 1-form part of a 2-group symmetry must generically break the 0-form part, enforced by a family anomaly derived from Wess-Zumino consistency.
