Algebraic locality and non-invertible Gauss laws
Nicholas Holfester, Jonathan Sorce
We study algebraic locality principles on a 2+1D closed lattice in the presence of a Gauss law for a non-invertible symmetry. Prior work in arXiv:2509.03589 showed that when enforc…
Particle-Soliton Degeneracy in 2D Quantum Chromodynamics
Clay Cordova, Diego García-Sepúlveda, Nicholas Holfester
Quantum chromodynamics in two spacetime dimensions admits a finite non-invertible symmetry described mathematically by a fusion category. This symmetry is spontaneously broken at l…
Representation Theory of Solitons
Clay Cordova, Nicholas Holfester, Kantaro Ohmori
Solitons in two-dimensional quantum field theory exhibit patterns of degeneracies and associated selection rules on scattering amplitudes. We develop a representation theory that c…
Particle-Soliton Degeneracies from Spontaneously Broken Non-Invertible Symmetry
Clay Cordova, Diego García-Sepúlveda, Nicholas Holfester
We study non-invertible topological symmetry operators in massive quantum field theories in (1+1) dimensions. In phases where this symmetry is spontaneously broken we show that the…
