Notes on (-2)-form symmetries

Pinak Banerjee, Alonso Perez-Lona, Daniel Robbins +3

We study -form symmetries of a -dimensional quantum field theory, via a -form symmetry of its -dimensional Symmetry Topological Field Theory (SymTFT), realize…

Total instanton restriction via multiverse interference: Noncompact gauge theories and (-1)-form symmetries

Alonso Perez-Lona, Eric Sharpe, Xingyang Yu +1

In this note we consider examples of decomposition (in which a local QFT is equivalent to a disjoint union of multiple independent theories, known as universes) where there is a co…

Noninvertible symmetries in the B model TFT

A. Caldararu, T. Pantev, E. Sharpe +2

In this paper we explore noninvertible symmetries in general (not necessarily rational) SCFTs and their topological B-twists for Calabi-Yau manifolds. We begin with a detailed over…

Notes on gauging noninvertible symmetries, part 2: higher multiplicity cases

Alonso Perez-Lona, Daniel Robbins, Eric Sharpe +2

In this paper we discuss gauging noninvertible zero-form symmetries in two dimensions, extending our previous work. Specifically, in this work we discuss more general gauged noninv…

Chern-Simons theory, decomposition, and the A model

Tony Pantev, Eric Sharpe, Xingyang Yu

In this paper, we discuss how gauging one-form symmetries in Chern-Simons theories is implemented in an A-twisted topological open string theory. For example, the contribution from…

Notes on gauging noninvertible symmetries, part 1: Multiplicity-free cases

A. Perez-Lona, D. Robbins, E. Sharpe +2

In this paper we discuss gauging noninvertible zero-form symmetries in two dimensions. We specialize to certain gaugeable cases, specifically, fusion categories of the form Rep(H)…

Decomposition and the Gross-Taylor string theory

T. Pantev, E. Sharpe

It was recently argued by Nguyen-Tanizaki-Unsal that two-dimensional pure Yang-Mills theory is equivalent to (decomposes into) a disjoint union of (invertible) quantum field theori…

Decomposition in Chern-Simons theories in three dimensions

T. Pantev, E. Sharpe

In this paper we discuss decomposition in the context of three-dimensional Chern-Simons theories. Specifically, we argue that a Chern-Simons theory with a gauged noneffectively-act…
