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 …

Extended functorial field theories and anomalies in quantum field theories
L Müller - arXiv preprint arXiv:2003.08217, 2020 - arxiv.org
We develop a general framework for the description of anomalies using extended functorial

Parallel transport of higher flat gerbes as an extended homotopy quantum field theory
We prove that the parallel transport of a flat n-1 n-1-gerbe on any given target space gives
rise to an n-dimensional extended homotopy quantum field theory. In case the target space …
