Introduction to topological symmetry in QFT
Abstract
This brief note publicizes the quantum framework for symmetry that is developed in our joint paper arXiv:2209.07471 with Greg Moore and Constantin Teleman. We include additional motivation and an application to a selection rule for line defects in 4-dimensional gauge theories.
