Abstract
Higher form symmetry, one of the generalized symmetries, primarily involves the action of abelian groups. This is, due to the topological nature of symmetry defect operators. In this study, we extend the vector space (or vector bundle) in which the charged operators take values, in order to describe the action of non-abelian groups while preserving this topological property.
