Abstract

We discuss a string-net construction on 2-framed surfaces, taking as algebraic input a finite, rigid tensor category, which is neither assumed to be pivotal nor semi-simple. It is shown that circle categories of our framed string-net construction essentially compute Drinfeld centers twisted by powers of the double dual functor.
