abstract
We show that the path-integral of conformal field theories in $D$ dimensions (CFT$_D$) can be constructed by solving for eigenstates of an RG operator following from the Turaev-Viro formulation of a topological field theory in $D+1$ dimensions (TQFT$_{D+1}$), explicitly realising the holographic sandwich relation between a symmetric theory and a TQFT. Generically, exact eigenstates corresponding to symmetric-TQFT$_D$ follow from Frobenius algebra in the TQFT$_{D+1}$. For $D=2$, we constructed eigenstates that produce 2D rational CFT path-integral exactly, which, curiously connects a continuous field theoretic path-integral with the Turaev-Viro state sum. We also devise and illustrate numerical methods for $D=2,3$ to search for CFT$_D$ as phase transition points between symmetric TQFT$_D$. Finally since the RG operator is in fact an exact analytic holographic tensor network, we compute ``bulk-boundary'' correlator and compare with the AdS/CFT dictionary at $D=2$. Promisingly, they are numerically compatible given our accuracy, although further works will be needed to explore the precise connection to the AdS/CFT correspondence.

Characterizing gapped phases by smeared boundary conformal field theories: Duality in unusual ordering with spontaneously broken generalized symmetries
Gapped phases dual to massless RG flows in 2D CFTs exhibit unusual ordering via spontaneous breaking of non-group-like symmetries and are characterized using smeared boundary CFTs applied to smeared Ishibashi states.

QG from SymQRG: AdS$_3$/CFT$_2$ Correspondence as Topological Symmetry-Preserving Quantum RG Flow
A framework called SymQRG identifies 3D quantum gravity as the symmetry-preserving RG flow of 2D CFTs, realized discretely by U_q(SL(2,R)) 6j symbols.

It from ETH: Multi-interval Entanglement and Replica Wormholes from Large-$c$ BCFT Ensemble
The RT formula for entanglement in AdS3/CFT2, including phase transitions and multi-interval vacuum entropies, is derived from an assumed large-c ensemble of (B)CFT data, under the 'It from ETH' paradigm.

Non-invertible SPTs: an on-site realization of (1+1)d anomaly-free fusion category symmetry
Anomaly-free fusion category symmetries have a canonical trivial phase, and the three Rep†(D8) symmetry-protected topological phases are explicitly realized by Q-system lattice models connected by an S3 duality.
