Neutrino Masses from Generalized Symmetry Breaking
Clay Cordova, Sungwoo Hong, Seth Koren +1
We explore generalized global symmetries in theories of physics beyond the Standard Model. Theories of bosons generically contain 'non-invertible' chiral symmetries, whose pre…
Matching higher symmetries across Intriligator-Seiberg duality
Yasunori Lee, Kantaro Ohmori, Yuji Tachikawa
We study higher symmetries and anomalies of 4d gauge theory with flavors. We find that they depend on the parity of and , the global form of…
6d/5d exceptional gauge theories from web diagrams
Hirotaka Hayashi, Hee-Cheol Kim, Kantaro Ohmori
We construct novel web diagrams with a trivalent or quadrivalent gluing for various 6d/5d theories from certain Higgsings of 6d conformal matter theories on a circle. The theories…
Replica Instantons from Axion-like Coupling
Kantaro Ohmori
We find a phenomenon in a non-gravitational gauge theory analogous to the replica wormhole in a quantum gravity theory. We consider a reservoir of a scalar field coupled with a gau…
Revisiting Wess-Zumino-Witten terms
Yasunori Lee, Kantaro Ohmori, Yuji Tachikawa
We revisit various topological issues concerning four-dimensional ungauged and gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) terms for and quantum chromodynamics (QCD), from the modern…
Anomaly Constraints on Gapped Phases with Discrete Chiral Symmetry
Clay Cordova, Kantaro Ohmori
We prove that in quantum field theories with symmetry, certain anomalies forbid a symmetry-preserving vacuum state with a gapped spectrum. In particular, th…
