Abstract
It is argued that SYM has an accumulation line of zero-temperature topologically ordered phases. Each of these phases corresponds to bound states charged under electromagnetic one-form symmetries. Each of the bound states is made of two Dyonic flux components each of them extended over a two dimensional surface. They are localized at the fixed loci of a rotational action, and are argued to correspond to conformal blocks (or primaries) of an WZNW model on a two-torus.
