Genus-One data and Anomaly Detection

Abstract

We introduce the notion of genus-one data for theories in (1+1)-dimensions with an anomalous finite group global symmetry. We outline the groups for which genus-one data is effective in detecting the anomaly, and also show that genus-one data is insufficient to detect the anomaly for dicyclic groups.
