Construction of two-dimensional topological field theories with non-invertible symmetries [PDF]

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021
We construct the defining data of two-dimensional topological field theories (TFTs) enriched by non-invertible symmetries/topological defect lines. Simple formulae for the three-point functions and the lasso two-point functions are derived, and crossing ...

Topological Field Theories and Duality [PDF]

Physics Letters B, 1996
Topologically non trivial effects appearing in the discussion of duality transformations in higher genus manifolds are discussed in a simple example, and their relation with the properties of Topological Field Theories is established.Comment: 7 pages ...

Klein Topological Field Theories from Group Representations [PDF]

Symmetry, Integrability and Geometry: Methods and Applications, 2011
We show that any complex (respectively real) representation of finite group naturally generates a open-closed (respectively Klein) topological field theory over complex numbers.

Topological Observables in Semiclassical Field Theories [PDF]

Physics Letters B, 1992
We give a geometrical set up for the semiclassical approximation to euclidean field theories having families of minima (instantons) parametrized by suitable moduli spaces ${\cal M}$.

Cyclic Foam Topological Field Theories

Journal of Geometry and Physics, 2009
This paper proposes an axiomatic for Cyclic Foam Topological Field theories. That is Topological Field theories, corresponding to String theories, where particles are arbitrary graphs.

Topological Field Theory Far from Equilibrium. [PDF]

Physical Review Letters, 2019
The observable properties of topological quantum matter are often described by topological field theories. Here, we demonstrate that this principle extends beyond thermal equilibrium.

Parabolic Whittaker Functions and Topological Field Theories I [PDF]

, 2010
First, we define a generalization of the standard quantum Toda chain inspired by a construction of quantum cohomology of partial flags spaces GL(\ell+1)/P, P a parabolic subgroup. Common eigenfunctions of the parabolic quantum Toda chains are generalized

Iterated spans and classical topological field theories

, 2017
We construct higher categories of iterated spans, possibly equipped with extra structure in the form of "local systems", and classify their fully dualizable objects.
