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…
Foliated-Exotic Duality in Fractonic BF Theories
Kantaro Ohmori, Shutaro Shimamura
There has been proposed two continuum descriptions of fracton systems: foliated quantum field theories (FQFTs) and exotic quantum field theories. Certain fracton systems are believ…
Symmetry TFTs for Non-Invertible Defects
Justin Kaidi, Kantaro Ohmori, Yunqin Zheng
Given any symmetry acting on a -dimensional quantum field theory, there is an associated -dimensional topological field theory known as the Symmetry TFT (SymTFT). The Sym…
Non-Invertible Chiral Symmetry and Exponential Hierarchies
Clay Cordova, Kantaro Ohmori
We elucidate the fate of classical symmetries which suffer from abelian Adler-Bell-Jackiw anomalies. Instead of being completely destroyed, these symmetries survive as non-invertib…
Higher Berry Phase of Fermions and Index Theorem
Yichul Choi, Kantaro Ohmori
When a quantum field theory is trivially gapped, its infrared fixed point is an invertible field theory. The partition function of the invertible field theory records the response…
Generalized Symmetry Breaking Scales and Weak Gravity Conjectures
Clay Cordova, Kantaro Ohmori, Tom Rudelius
We explore the notion of approximate global symmetries in quantum field theory and quantum gravity. We show that a variety of conjectures about quantum gravity, including the weak…
