Hairs of discrete symmetries and gravity [PDF]
Physics Letters B, 2017 Gauge symmetries are known to be respected by gravity because gauge charges carry flux lines, but global charges do not carry flux lines and are not conserved by gravitational interaction.

Dark Discrete Gauge Symmetries [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2010 We investigate scenarios in which dark matter is stabilized by an abelian Z_N discrete gauge symmetry. Models are surveyed according to symmetries and matter content.

Discrete symmetries in dimer diagrams [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 We apply dimer diagram techniques to uncover discrete global symmetries in the fields theories on D3-branes at singularities given by general orbifolds of general toric Calabi-Yau threefold singularities.

Discrete Lorentz symmetry and discrete time translational symmetry
New Journal of Physics, 2018 The Lorentz symmetry and the space and time translational symmetry are fundamental symmetries of nature. Crystals are the manifestation of the continuous space translational symmetry being spontaneously broken into a discrete one.

Physics Letters B, 2016 We construct discrete symmetry transformations for deformed relativistic kinematics based on group valued momenta. We focus on the specific example of κ-deformations of the Poincaré algebra with associated momenta living on (a sub-manifold of) de Sitter ...

Discrete gauge groups in F-theory models on genus-one fibered Calabi-Yau 4-folds without section [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 We determine the discrete gauge symmetries that arise in F-theory compactifications on examples of genus-one fibered Calabi-Yau 4-folds without a section.

$\lambda$-symmetries for discrete equations
, 2010 Following the usual definition of $\lambda$-symmetries of differential equations, we introduce the analogous concept for difference equations and apply it to some examples.Comment: 10 ...

2-Group symmetries and their classification in 6d
SciPost Physics, 2022 We uncover 2-group symmetries in 6d superconformal field theories. These symmetries arise when the discrete 1-form symmetry and continuous flavor symmetry group of a theory mix with each other.

Non-linearly realized discrete symmetries
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 While non-linear realizations of continuous symmetries feature derivative interactions and have no potential, non-linear realizations of discrete symmetries feature non-derivative interactions and have a highly suppressed potential.

Discrete and higher-form symmetries in SCFTs from wrapped M5-branes
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 We analyze topological mass terms of BF type arising in supersymmetric M-theory compactifications to AdS 5. These describe spontaneously broken higher-form gauge symmetries in the bulk. Different choices of boundary conditions for the BF terms yield dual
