Non-Invertible Surface Defects in 2+1d QFTs from Half Spacetime Gauging
Wei Cui, Babak Haghighat, Lorenzo Ruggeri
We study duality defects in 2+1d theories with $\bZ^{(0)}_N\times\bZ^{(1)}_N$ global symmetry and trivial mixed 't Hooft anomaly. By gauging these symmetries simultaneously in half…

Modularity of Vafa-Witten Partition Functions from SymTFT
Jin Chen, Wei Cui, Babak Haghighat +1
The 6d (2,0) theory of M5 branes compactified on the product geometry , where is a Kähler 4-manifold, can be studied in two different limits. In one limit, th…

Lecture Notes on Generalized Symmetries and Applications
Ran Luo, Qing-Rui Wang, Yi-Nan Wang
In this lecture note, we give a basic introduction to the rapidly developing concepts of generalized symmetries, from the perspectives of both high energy physics and condensed mat…
