(2+1) dimensional topological quantum field theories with defect excitations are by now quite well understood, while many questions are still open for (3+1) dimensional TQFTs. Here we propose a strategy to lift states and operators of a…

Symmetries and anomalies of a $d$-dimensional quantum field theory are often encoded in a $(d+1)$-dimensional topological action, called symmetry topological field theory (TFT). We derive the symmetry TFT for the 2-form and 1-form…

Mostly self-contained script on functorial topological quantum field theories. These notes give a slow introduction to the basic notions of category theory which serve a closer investigation of cobordisms and (commutative) Frobenius…

Let p be a prime number. We classify all smooth irreducible mod-p representations of the unramified unitary group U(1,1)(Q_p^2/Q_p) in two variables. We then investigate Langlands parameters in characteristic p associated to…

We construct higher categories of iterated spans, possibly equipped with extra structure in the form of "local systems", and classify their fully dualizable objects. By the Cobordism Hypothesis, these give rise to framed topological quantum…

In this paper, we provide a construction of a Topological Quantum Field Theory from a Non-Hermitian Ribbon Fusion Category. This is a simple method that does not involve enriching over Fusion Categories, or using other complicated…

We study representations of the mapping class group of the punctured torus on the double of a finite dimensional possibly non-semisimple Hopf algebra that arise in the construction of universal, extended topological field theories. We…

In this paper we study highest weight and standardly stratified structures on modular analogs of categories $\mathcal{O}$ over quantizations of symplectic resolutions and show how to recover the usual categories $\mathcal{O}$ (reduced mod…

At long distances, a gapped phase of matter is described by a topological quantum field theory (TQFT). We conjecture a tight and concrete relationship between the genuine $(d+1)$-partite entanglement -- labelled by a $d$-dimensional…

By means of an appropriate re-scaling of the metric in a Lagrangian, we are able to reduce it to a kinetic term only. This form enables us to examine the extended complexified solution set (complex moduli space) of field theories by finding…

We construct a state-sum type invariant of smooth closed oriented $4$-manifolds out of a $G$-crossed braided spherical fusion category ($G$-BSFC) for $G$ a finite group. The construction can be extended to obtain a $(3+1)$-dimensional…

We derive formulae which lend themselves to TQFT interpretations of the Milnor torsion, the Lescop invariant, the Casson invariant, and the Casson-Morita cocyle of a 3-manifold, and, furthermore, relate them to the Reshetikhin-Turaev…

We construct a four dimensional topological Quantum Field Theory from a modular tensor category. We complete the proof in the case of SU(2)q at a root of unity. Our construction may be important in the physical interpretation of the Chern…

To understand what does Chern-Simons with compact Lie group(does not like Dijkgraaf-Witten model with finite group in 3d) attach to a point, we first give a construction of Topological Quantum Field Theory(TQFT) via Chern-Simons theory in…

The irreducible representations $\phi_n^1$ and $\phi_n^2$ of the symplectic group $G_n=Sp_{2n}(P)$ over an algebraically closednfield $P$ of characteristic $p>2$ with highest weights $\omega_{n-1}+\frac{p-3}{2}\omega_n$ and…

Quantum field theories can exhibit various generalized symmetry structures, among which higher-group symmetries and non-invertible symmetry defects are particularly prominent. In this work, we explore a new general scenario in which these…

Let $G$ be the complex symplectic or special orthogonal group and $\g$ its Lie algebra. With every point $x$ of the maximal torus $T\subset G$ we associate a highest weight module $M_x$ over the Drinfeld-Jimbo quantum group $U_q(\g)$ and a…

Half-integral weight modular forms are naturally viewed as automorphic forms on the so-called metaplectic covering of $\operatorname{GL}_2(\mathbf{A}_{\mathbf{Q}})$ -- a central extension by the roots of unity $\mu_2$ in $\mathbf{Q}$. For…

We build a four-dimensional quaternion-parametrized conformal field theory (QCFT) using quaternion holomorphic functions as the generators of quaternionic conformal transformations. Taking the two-dimensional complex-parametrized conformal…

The local Lie algebra of the Standard Model (SM) is $su(3)\times su(2) \times u(1)$, yet its global gauge group, $G_{{\rm SM}_{\rm q}}=$SU(3)$\times$SU(2)$\times$U(1)/$\mathbb{Z}_{\rm q}$, q$=1,2,3,6$ remains undetermined. Building on…
