We continue our exploration of exotic, gapless lattice and continuum field theories with subsystem global symmetries. In an earlier paper, we presented free lattice models enjoying all the global symmetries (except continuous translations), dualities, and anomalies of the continuum theories. Here, we study in detail the relation between the lattice models and the corresponding continuum theories. We do that by analyzing the spectrum of the theories and several correlation functions. These lead us to uncover interesting subtleties in the way the continuum limit can be taken. In particular, in some cases, the infinite volume limit and the continuum limit do not commute. This signals a surprising UV/IR mixing, i.e., long distance sensitivity to short distance details.

  1. String-Membrane-Nets from Higher-Form Gauging: An Alternate Route to $p$-String Condensation

    cond-mat.str-el 2025-05 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Gauging a diagonal 1-form symmetry of stacked 2+1D topological orders implements p-string condensation, yielding 3+1D fracton phases such as the X-Cube and string-membrane-net models.
