Abstract
We describe a duality between multipole gauge theories and spatially ordered phases. Our main example is a duality between the multipole gauge theory description of the U(1) Haah code and smectic A phase in three spatial dimensions. We show how multipole symmetries restrict the mobility of dislocations and disclinations in smectic A phase. Finally, we exhibit a 2D version of the duality.
