A bstract We consider exactly solvable models in (3+ 1) d whose ground states are
described by topological lattice gauge theories. Using simplicial arguments, we emphasize …

Symmetry fractionalization, mixed-anomalies and dualities in quantum spin models with generalized symmetries

H Moradi, ÖM Aksoy, JH Bardarson, A Tiwari - arxiv preprint arxiv …, 2023 - arxiv.org
We investigate the gauging of higher-form finite Abelian symmetries and their sub-groups in
quantum spin models in spatial dimensions $ d= 2$ and 3. Doing so, we naturally uncover …
