invertible symmetry, in diverse spacetime dimensions. We start with several different but …

Non-invertible symmetries and LSM-type constraints on a tensor product Hilbert space

N Seiberg, S Seifnashri, SH Shao - SciPost Physics, 2024 - scipost.org
We discuss the exact non-invertible Kramers-Wannier symmetry of 1+ 1d lattice models on a
tensor product Hilbert space of qubits. This symmetry is associated with a topological defect …

Gauging non-invertible symmetries: topological interfaces and generalized orbifold groupoid in 2d QFT

O Diatlyk, C Luo, Y Wang, Q Weller - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2024 - Springer
A bstract Gauging is a powerful operation on symmetries in quantum field theory (QFT), as it
connects distinct theories and also reveals hidden structures in a given theory. We initiate a …

Non-invertible duality defect and non-commutative fusion algebra

Y Nagoya, S Shimamori - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 - Springer
A bstract We study non-invertible duality symmetries by gauging a diagonal subgroup of a
non-anomalous U (1)× U (1) global symmetry. In particular, we employ the half-space …

On triality defects in 2d CFT

DC Lu, Z Sun - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 - Springer
A bstract We consider the triality fusion category discovered in the c= 1 Kosterlitz-Thouless
theory [1]. We analyze this fusion category using the tools from the group theoretical fusion …
