Fermionic Finite-Group Gauge Theories and Interacting Symmetric/Crystalline Orders via Cobordisms
Meng Guo, Kantaro Ohmori, Pavel Putrov +2
We formulate a family of spin Topological Quantum Filed Theories (spin-TQFTs) as fermionic generalization of bosonic Dijkgraaf-Witten TQFTs. They are obtained by gauging -equiva…
New Higher Anomalies, SU(N) Yang-Mills Gauge Theory and Sigma Model
Zheyan Wan, Juven Wang, Yunqin Zheng
We hypothesize a new and more complete set of anomalies of certain quantum field theories (QFTs) and then give an eclectic verification. First, we propose a set of 't Hooft higher…
Higher Anomalies, Higher Symmetries, and Cobordisms I: Classification of Higher-Symmetry-Protected Topological States and Their Boundary Fermionic/Bosonic Anomalies via a Generalized Cobordism Theory
Zheyan Wan, Juven Wang
By developing a generalized cobordism theory, we explore the higher global symmetries and higher anomalies of quantum field theories and interacting fermionic/bosonic systems in co…
Adjoint QCD, Deconfined Critical Phenomena, Symmetry-Enriched Topological Quantum Field Theory, and Higher Symmetry-Extension
Zheyan Wan, Juven Wang
Recent work explores the candidate phases of the 4d adjoint quantum chromodynamics (QCD) with an SU(2) gauge group and two massless adjoint Weyl fermions. Both Cordova-Dumitres…
Classification of spherical fusion categories of Frobenius-Schur exponent 2
Zheyan Wan, Yilong Wang
In this paper, we propose a new approach towards the classification of spherical fusion categories by their Frobenius-Schur exponents. We classify spherical fusion categories of Fr…
Tunneling Topological Vacua via Extended Operators: (Spin-)TQFT Spectra and Boundary Deconfinement in Various Dimensions
Juven Wang, Kantaro Ohmori, Pavel Putrov +6
Distinct quantum vacua of topologically ordered states can be tunneled into each other via extended operators. The possible applications include condensed matter and quantum cosmol…
