Abstract

We establish a relation between fully extended 22-dimensional TQFTs and recognisable weighted formal languages, rational biprefix codes and lattice TFTs. We show the equivalence of 2D2D closed TFTs and rational exchangeable series and we discuss the important special case of finite groups. Finally, we outline a reformulation in terms of a restricted version of second order monadic logic.
