SymTFT, Protected Gaplessness, and Spontaneous Breaking of Non-invertible Symmetries

Michele Del Zotto, Azeem Hasan, Elias Riedel Gårding

In recent years we have learned that several four-dimensional field theories can manifest non-invertible zero-form symmetries generalizing the Kramers-Wannier duality defect of the…

Emergent Non-Invertible Symmetries Bridging UV and IR Phases -- The Adjoint QCD Example

Michele Del Zotto, Shani Nadir Meynet, Daniele Migliorati +1

In this letter, we demonstrate how an emergent non-invertible symmetry along a renormalization group (RG) flow reveals connections between microscopic and macroscopic physics. We i…

Higher Structure of Chiral Symmetry

Christian Copetti, Michele Del Zotto, Kantaro Ohmori +1

A recent development in our understanding of the theory of quantum fields is the fact that familiar gauge theories in spacetime dimensions greater than two can have non-invertible…

Higher Form Symmetries of Argyres-Douglas Theories

Michele Del Zotto, Iñaki García Etxebarria, Saghar S. Hosseini

We determine the structure of 1-form symmetries for all 4d theories that have a geometric engineering in terms of type IIB string theory on isolated hypersurface…

Higher Form Symmetries and M-theory

Federica Albertini, Michele Del Zotto, Iñaki García Etxebarria +1

We discuss the geometric origin of discrete higher form symmetries of quantum field theories in terms of defect groups from geometric engineering in M-theory. The flux non-commutat…

Five-dimensional SCFTs and gauge theory phases: an M-theory/type IIA perspective

Cyril Closset, Michele Del Zotto, Vivek Saxena

We revisit the correspondence between Calabi-Yau (CY) threefold isolated singularities and five-dimensional superconformal field theories (SCFTs), which arise at low e…

Infinitely Many M2-instanton Corrections to M-theory on -manifolds

Andreas P. Braun, Michele Del Zotto, James Halverson +3

We consider the non-perturbative superpotential for a class of four-dimensional vacua obtained from M-theory on seven-manifolds with holonomy . The class of $G_…

Galois covers of N=2 BPS spectra and quantum monodromy

Sergio Cecotti, Michele Del Zotto

The BPS spectrum of many 4d N=2 theories may be seen as the (categorical) Galois cover of the BPS spectrum of a different 4d N=2 model. The Galois group G acts as a physical symmet…
