Homotopy theory of algebraic quantum field theories

M Benini, A Schenkel, L Woike - Letters in Mathematical Physics, 2019 - Springer
Motivated by gauge theory, we develop a general framework for chain complex-valued
algebraic quantum field theories. Building upon our recent operadic approach to this …

Bosonization and Anomaly Indicators of (2+ 1)-D Fermionic Topological Orders

A Debray, W Ye, M Yu - arXiv preprint arXiv:2312.13341, 2023 - arxiv.org
We provide a mathematical proposal for the anomaly indicators of symmetries of (2+ 1)-d
fermionic topological orders, and work out the consequences of our proposal in several …

Orbifolds of Reshetikhin-Turaev TQFTs

N Carqueville, I Runkel, G Schaumann - arXiv preprint arXiv:1809.01483, 2018 - arxiv.org
We construct three classes of generalised orbifolds of Reshetikhin-Turaev theory for a
modular tensor category $\mathcal {C} $, using the language of defect TQFT from [arXiv …

Homotopy coherent mapping class group actions and excision for Hochschild complexes of modular categories

C Schweigert, L Woike - Advances in Mathematics, 2021 - Elsevier
Given any modular category C over an algebraically closed field k, we extract a sequence
(M g) g≥ 0 of C-bimodules and show that the Hochschild chain complex CH (C; M g) of C …

Semisimple field theories detect stable diffeomorphism

D Reutter, C Schommer-Pries - arXiv preprint arXiv:2206.10031, 2022 - arxiv.org
Extending the work of the first author, we introduce a notion of semisimple topological field
theory in arbitrary even dimension and show that such field theories necessarily lead to …

Orbifold graph TQFTs

N Carqueville, V Mulevicius, I Runkel… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2021 - arxiv.org
A generalised orbifold of a defect TQFT $\mathcal {Z} $ is another TQFT $\mathcal {Z} _
{\mathcal {A}} $ obtained by performing a state sum construction internal to $\mathcal {Z} …

The Hochschild complex of a finite tensor category

C Schweigert, L Woike - Algebraic & Geometric Topology, 2021 - msp.org
Modular functors, ie consistent systems of projective representations of mapping class
groups of surfaces, were constructed for nonsemisimple modular categories decades ago …

Orientation twisted homotopy field theories and twisted unoriented Dijkgraaf–Witten theory
