Proliferation Transitions for Non-Abelian Anyons
Sakura Schafer-Nameki, Yunqin Zheng, Andrea Antinucci
We construct phase transitions that proliferate condensable anyons in general 2+1d topological orders, including non-abelian ones. The central tool that provides a systematic appro…
A Twist on Scattering from Defect Anomalies
Andrea Antinucci, Christian Copetti, Giovanni Galati +1
In the presence of extended defects, familiar incoming particles can scatter into exotic outgoing states created by twist operators. We show that one possible mechanism driving the…
Categorical Anomaly Matching
Andrea Antinucci, Christian Copetti, Yuhan Gai +1
Matching 't Hooft anomalies is a powerful tool for constraining the low-energy dynamics of quantum systems and their allowed renormalization group (RG) flows. For non-invertible (o…
Defect Conformal Manifolds from Phantom (Non-Invertible) Symmetries
Andrea Antinucci, Christian Copetti, Giovanni Galati +1
We explore a general mechanism that allows (1+1)d CFTs to have interesting interface conformal manifolds even in the absence of any continuous internal symmetry or supersymmetry. T…
Topological Constraints on Defect Dynamics
Andrea Antinucci, Christian Copetti, Giovanni Galati +1
Extended objects (defects) in Quantum Field Theory exhibit rich, nontrivial dynamics describing a variety of physical phenomena. These systems often involve strong coupling at long…
SymTFT for (3+1)d Gapless SPTs and Obstructions to Confinement
Andrea Antinucci, Christian Copetti, Sakura Schafer-Nameki
We study gapless phases in (3+1)d in the presence of 1-form and non-invertible duality symmetries. Using the Symmetry Topological Field Theory (SymTFT) approach, we classify the ga…
Holographic duals of symmetry broken phases
Andrea Antinucci, Francesco Benini, Giovanni Rizi
We explore a novel interpretation of Symmetry Topological Field Theories (SymTFTs) as theories of gravity, proposing a holographic duality where the bulk SymTFT (with the gauging o…
Anomalies and gauging of U(1) symmetries
Andrea Antinucci, Francesco Benini
We propose the Symmetry TFT for theories with a symmetry in arbitrary dimension. The Symmetry TFT describes the structure of the symmetry, its anomalies, and the possible to…
Anomalies of non-invertible self-duality symmetries: fractionalization and gauging
Andrea Antinucci, Francesco Benini, Christian Copetti +2
We study anomalies of non-invertible duality symmetries in both 2d and 4d, employing the tool of the Symmetry TFT. In the 2d case we rephrase the known obstruction theory for the T…
Symmetries and topological operators, on average
Andrea Antinucci, Giovanni Galati, Giovanni Rizi +1
We study Ward identities and selection rules for local correlators in disordered theories where a 0-form global symmetry of a QFT is explicitly broken by a random coupling but…
"Zoology" of non-invertible duality defects: the view from class
Andrea Antinucci, Christian Copetti, Giovanni Galati +1
We study generalizations of the non-invertible duality defects present in SU(N) SYM by studying theories with larger duality groups. We focus on 4d $\mathcal{N} =…
The holography of non-invertible self-duality symmetries
Andrea Antinucci, Francesco Benini, Christian Copetti +2
We study how non-invertible self-duality defects arise in theories with a holographic dual. We focus on the paradigmatic example of SYM. The th…
On Continuous 2-Category Symmetries and Yang-Mills Theory
Andrea Antinucci, Giovanni Galati, Giovanni Rizi
We study a 4d gauge theory obtained from a theory by gauging a 0-form symmetry . We show that this theory has a global continuous 2-catego…
Suspended Fixed Points
Andrea Antinucci, Massimo Bianchi, Salvo Mancani +1
We study the orientifold of the superconformal field theories describing D3-branes probing the Suspended Pinch Point singularity, as well as the orientifolds of…
Infrared Duality in Unoriented Pseudo del Pezzo
Andrea Antinucci, Salvo Mancani, Fabio Riccioni
We study the orientifold projections of the superconformal field theories describing D3-branes probing the Pseudo del Pezzo singularities PdP and PdP.…
