Abstract
We generalize the idea of symmetry topological field theory (SymTFT) for subsystem symmetry. We propose the 2-foliated BF theory with level in d as subsystem SymTFT for subsystem symmetry in d. Focusing on , we investigate various topological boundaries. The subsystem Kramers-Wannier and Jordan-Wigner dualities can be viewed as boundary transformations of the subsystem SymTFT and are included in a larger duality web from the subsystem symmetry of the bulk foliated BF theory. Finally, we construct the condensation defects and twist defects of -transformation in the subsystem , from which the fusion rule of subsystem non-invertible operators can be recovered.
