Discrete Approximations to Principal Bundles in Abelian Gauge Theory

Leron Borsten, Hyungrok Kim

A -dimensional field theory with a periodic spatial dimension may be approximated by a -dimensional theory with a truncated Kaluza-Klein tower of fields; as ${k\to\in…

Sandwich Construction of Symmetry TFTs for the Centre Symmetries of Chern-Simons, Yang-Mills, and Einstein Gravity

Leron Borsten, Dimitri Kanakaris, Hyungrok Kim

We construct symmetry topological field theories (SymTFTs) using the sandwich construction of Pulmann-Å evera-Valach that manifest the centre symmetries of Chern-Simons theory and…

Non-relativistic limits of supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory and S-duality

Hyungrok Kim, Joseph Smith

We investigate non-relativistic limits of four-dimensional maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory (4d MSYM) and their relation to the nonperturbative $\operatorname{SL}(2;\math…

Ersatz gravity and black-hole thermodynamics from Manin gauge theory with noncompact gauge group

Leron Borsten, Dimitri Kanakaris, Hyungrok Kim

We show that a three-dimensional Manin gauge theory with gauge group (i.e. Yang-Mills theory, the third-way theory, or the imaginary third-way theo…

Non-Geometric T-Duality as Higher Groupoid Bundles with Connections

Hyungrok Kim, Christian Saemann

We propose a description of T-duality between general geometric and non-geometric backgrounds as higher groupoid bundles with connections. Our description extends the previous obse…

Symmetries Beget Symmetries: Ghostly Higher-Form Symmetries and the Descent Equation

Leron Borsten, Dimitri Kanakaris, Hyungrok Kim

Viewed through the lens of the Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism, we demonstrate that higher-form currents with nonzero ghost number also define higher-form symmetries, directly analogo…
