We present a non-abelian generalization of Witten monopole equations and we analyze the associated moduli problem, which can be regarded as a generalization of Donaldson theory. The moduli space of solutions for SU(2) monopoles on K\"ahler…

A topological quantum field theory of non-abelian differential forms is investigated from the point of view of its possible applications to description of polynomial invariants of higher-dimensional two-component links. A path-integral…

The Seiberg-Witten formalism has been realized as an electrodynamics in phase space (associated to the Dirac equation written in phase space) and this fact is explored here with non-abelian gauge group. First, a physically heuristic…

Topological defects and operators give a far-reaching generalization of symmetries of quantum fields. An auxiliary topological field theory in one dimension higher than the QFT of interest, known as the SymTFT, provides a natural way for…

We describe a generalization of Yang--Mills topological field theory for Abelian two-forms in six dimensions. The connection of this theory by a twist to Poincar\'e supersymmetric theories is given. We also briefly consider interactions and…

We study a connection between duality and topological field theories. First, 2d Kramers-Wannier duality is formulated as a simple 3d topological claim (more or less Poincar\'e duality), and a similar formulation is given for…

We present a summary of the applications of duality to Donaldson-Witten theory and its generalizations. Special emphasis is made on the computation of Donaldson invariants in terms of Seiberg-Witten invariants using recent results in N=2…

We study a connection between duality and topological field theories. First, 2d Kramers-Wannier duality is formulated as a simple 3d topological claim (more or less Poincare duality), and a similar formulation is given for…

We explore a novel interpretation of Symmetry Topological Field Theories (SymTFTs) as theories of gravity, proposing a holographic duality where the bulk SymTFT (with the gauging of a suitable Lagrangian algebra) is dual to the universal…

We consider non-Abelian T-duality on N=1 supergravity backgrounds possessing well understood field theory duals. For the case of D3-branes at the tip of the conifold, we dualise along an SU(2) isometry. The result is a type-IIA geometry…

Most nonabelian gauge theories admit the existence of conserved and quantized topological charges as generalizations of the Dirac monopole. Their interactions are dictated by topology. In this paper, previous work in deriving classical…

Three dimensional topological field theories associated with the three dimensional version of Abelian and non-Abelian Seiberg-Witten monopoles are presented. These three dimensional monopole equations are obtained by a dimensional reduction…

Spectral flow in two-dimensional field theories is known to correspond to geometrical twisting between two circles in the gravity dual. We generalize this operation to the geometries which have SO(k+1) x SO(k+1) isometries with k>1 and…

We construct two-dimensional non-commutative topological quantum field theories (TQFTs), one for each Hecke algebra corresponding to a finite Coxeter system. These TQFTs associate an invariant to each ciliated surface, which is a Laurent…

We describe forms with non-Abelian charges. We avoid the use of theories with flat curvatures by working in the context of topological field theory. We obtain TQFTs for a form and its dual. We leave open the question of getting gauges in…

Symmetry-protected topological phases (SPT) are short-range entangled gapped states protected by global symmetry. Nontrivial SPT phases cannot be adiabatically connected to the trivial disordered state(or atomic insulator) as long as…

((1+1)-dimensional ${\cal N}=1$ super-symmetric field theory and (3+1)-dimensional ${\cal N}=2$ super-symmetric gauge theory are discussed in a, more or less, unified way, designed to identify the quantum BPS states in both systems.…

We consider a TFT on the product of a manifold with an interval, together with a topological and a non-topological boundary condition imposed at the two respective ends. The resulting (in general higher gauge) field theory is…

A topological quantum field theory is introduced which reproduces the Seiberg-Witten invariants of four-manifolds. Dimensional reduction of this topological field theory leads to a new one in three dimensions. Its partition function yields…

We prove a topological version of abelian duality where the gauge groups are finite abelian. The theories are finite homotopy TFTs, topological analogues of the $p$-form $U(1)$ gauge theories. Using Brown-Comenetz duality, we extend the…
