DualityCert: Verifier-Gated Language-Model Repair of Broken Duality Claims in Quantum Field Theory

Xingyang Yu

We present DualityCert, a symbolic verifier for candidate Seiberg-duality claims in four-dimensional N=1 quiver gauge theories. The verifier evaluates 't Hooft anomaly matching, su…

Grading the Unspoken: Evaluating Tacit Reasoning in Quantum Field Theory and String Theory with LLMs

Xingyang Yu, Yinghuan Zhang, Yufei Zhang +1

Large language models have demonstrated impressive performance across many domains of mathematics and physics. One natural question is whether such models can support research in h…

SymTFT Entanglement and Holographic (Non)-Factorization

Ethan Torres, Xingyang Yu

Given two otherwise decoupled -dimensional CFTs which possess a common (finite) symmetry subcategory, one can consider entangled boundary states of their -dimensional Sym…

On mixed 't Hooft anomalies of emergent symmetries

Wei Gu, Du Pei, Xingyang Yu

In this paper, we investigate the dynamical constraints imposed on the UV theory when it develops an emergent symmetry in the infrared with mixed 't Hooft anomalies. We demonstrate…

Gauging in Parameter Space: A Top-Down Perspective

Xingyang Yu

In this paper, we discuss a novel top-down perspective on gauging parameters in quantum field theories (QFTs) by promoting them to partially dynamical fields. Through a generalized…

Generalized Symmetries in 2D from String Theory: SymTFTs, Intrinsic Relativeness, and Anomalies of Non-invertible Symmetries

Sebastian Franco, Xingyang Yu

Generalized global symmetries, in particular non-invertible and categorical symmetries, have become a focal point in the recent study of quantum field theory (QFT). In this paper,…

Non-invertible Symmetries in 2D from Type IIB String Theory

Xingyang Yu

We propose a top-down approach to non-invertible symmetries in 2D QFTs and their associated symmetry topological field theories. We focus on the gauge theory engineered on D1-brane…

SymTrees and Multi-Sector QFTs

Florent Baume, Jonathan J. Heckman, Max Hübner +3

The global symmetries of a -dimensional QFT can, in many cases, be captured in terms of a -dimensional symmetry topological field theory (SymTFT). In this work we constru…
