Spacetime symmetry-enriched SymTFT: from LSM anomalies to modulated symmetries and beyond

Salvatore D. Pace, Ömer M. Aksoy, Ho Tat Lam

We extend the Symmetry Topological Field Theory (SymTFT) framework beyond internal symmetries by including geometric data that encode spacetime symmetries. Concretely, we enrich th…

(SPT-)LSM theorems from projective non-invertible symmetries

Salvatore D. Pace, Ho Tat Lam, Ömer M. Aksoy

Projective symmetries are ubiquitous in quantum lattice models and can be leveraged to constrain their phase diagram and entanglement structure. In this paper, we investigate the c…

Gauging modulated symmetries: Kramers-Wannier dualities and non-invertible reflections

Salvatore D. Pace, Guilherme Delfino, Ho Tat Lam +1

Modulated symmetries are internal symmetries that act in a non-uniform, spatially modulated way and are generalizations of, for example, dipole symmetries. In this paper, we system…

Topological Dipole Insulator

Ho Tat Lam, Jung Hoon Han, Yizhi You

We expand the concept of two-dimensional topological insulators to encompass a novel category known as topological dipole insulators (TDIs), characterized by conserved dipole momen…

Symmetries and anomalies of Kitaev spin- models: Identifying symmetry-enforced exotic quantum matter

Ruizhi Liu, Ho Tat Lam, Han Ma +1

We analyze the internal symmetries and their anomalies in the Kitaev spin- models. Importantly, these models have a lattice version of a 1-form symmetry, denoted…

Obstructions to Gapped Phases from Non-Invertible Symmetries

Anuj Apte, Clay Cordova, Ho Tat Lam

Quantum systems in 3+1-dimensions that are invariant under gauging a one-form symmetry enjoy novel non-invertible duality symmetries encoded by topological defects. These symmetrie…

Symmetry Protected Topological Phases and Majorana Mode in One-dimensional Quantum Walk with Boundary

Ho Tat Lam, Yue Yu, Kwok Yip Szeto

The topological phases in one-dimensional quantum walk can be classified by the coin parameters. By solving for the general exact solutions of bound states in one-dimensional quant…
