Lecture notes on 2-dimensional defect TQFT
Nils Carqueville
These notes offer an introduction to the functorial and algebraic description of 2-dimensional topological quantum field theories `with defects', assuming only superficial familiar…

3-dimensional defect TQFTs and their tricategories
Nils Carqueville, Catherine Meusburger, Gregor Schaumann
We initiate a systematic study of 3-dimensional `defect' topological quantum field theories, that we introduce as symmetric monoidal functors on stratified and decorated bordisms.…
