We define a lattice statistical model on a triangulated manifold in four dimensions associated to a group $G$. When $G=SU(2)$, the statistical weight is constructed from the $15j$-symbol as well as the $6j$-symbol for recombination of…

We study anomalies of non-Abelian discrete symmetries; which part of non-Abelian group is anomaly free and which part can be anomalous. It is found that the anomaly-free elements of the group $G$ generate a normal subgroup $G_0$ of $G$ and…

Let $G$ be a reductive algebraic group over a $p$-adic field or number field $K$, and let $V$ be a $K$-linear faithful representation of $G$. A lattice $\Lambda$ in the vector space $V$ defines a model $\hat{G}_{\Lambda}$ of $G$ over…

Gapped phases of noninteracting fermions, with and without charge conservation and time-reversal symmetry, are classified using Bott periodicity. The symmetry and spatial dimension determines a general universality class, which corresponds…

In the present paper we study abelian extensions of connected Lie groups $G$ modeled on locally convex spaces by smooth $G$-modules $A$. We parametrize the extension classes by a suitable cohomology group $H^2_s(G,A)$ defined by locally…

Crystalline topological insulators and superconductors have been a prominent topic in the field of condensed matter physics. These systems obey certain crystalline (spatial) symmetries that depend on the geometry of the lattice. The…

We examine simulations of the formation of domain walls, cosmic strings, and monopoles on a cubic lattice, in which the topological defects are assumed to lie at the zeros of a piecewise constant 1, 2, or 3 component Gaussian random field,…

In this work we study the topological properties of the $G_2$ lattice gauge theory by means of Monte Carlo simulations. We focus on the behaviour of topological quantities across the deconfinement transition and investigate observables…

In the present paper we introduce and study a canonical ${\cal E}$-lattice structure on the set of element orders of some finite groups. We show that a finite abelian group is uniquely determined by this canonical ${\cal E}$-lattice.

Multi-Higgs models equipped with global symmetry groups, either exact or softly broken, offer a rich framework for constructions beyond the Standard Model and lead to remarkable phenomenological consequences. Knowing all the symmetry…

The Abelian Sandpile Model (ASM) is a paradigm of self-organized criticality (SOC) which is related to $c=-2$ conformal field theory. The conformal fields corresponding to some height clusters have been suggested before. Here we derive the…

We present a generic and systematic approach for constructing D-dimensional lattice models with exactly solvable d-dimensional boundary states localized to corners, edges, hinges and surfaces. These solvable models represent a class of…

We study time-independent radially symmetric first-order solitons in a CP(2) model interacting with an Abelian gauge field whose dynamics is controlled by the usual Maxwell term. In this sense, we develop a consistent first-order framework…

Recently a new class of quantum phases of matter: symmetry protected topological states, such as topological insulators, attracted much attention. In presence of interactions, group cohomology provides a classification of these [X. Chen et…

We construct a two-dimensional (2D) lattice model that is argued to realize a gapped chiral spin liquid with (Ising) non-Abelian topological order. The building blocks are spin-1/2 two-leg ladders with $SU(2)$-symmetric spin-spin…

There is a lattice of torsion theories in simplicial groups such that the torsion/torsion-free categories are given by simplicial groups with truncated Moore complex below/above a certain degree. We study the restriction of these torsion…

Let $G$ be a linear semisimple Lie group without compact factors. We show that uniform approximate lattices $\Lambda$ arising as regular model sets in $G$ determine the ambient group $G$ in a strong sense. Specifically, for every…

We introduce partially defined dynamical systems defined on a topological space. To each such system we associate a functor $s$ from a category $G$ to $\Top^{\op}$ and show that it defines what we call a skew category algebra $A…
