Fractons are a new type of quasiparticle which are immobile in isolation, but can often move
by forming bound states. Fractons are found in a variety of physical settings, such as spin …

Symmetry plays a central role in quantum field theory. Recent developments include
symmetries that act on defects and other subsystems, and symmetries that are categorical …

We explore non-invertible symmetries in two-dimensional lattice models with subsystem
$\mathbb Z_2 $ symmetry. We introduce a subsystem $\mathbb Z_2 $-gauging procedure …

We introduce new classes of hydrodynamic theories inspired by the recently discovered
fracton phases of quantum matter. Fracton phases are characterized by elementary …

A powerful mechanism for constructing gauge theories is to start from a theory with a global
symmetry, then apply the “gauge principle,” which demands that this symmetry hold locally …

Generic many-body systems coupled to an environment lose their quantum entanglement
due to decoherence and evolve to a mixed state with only classical correlations. Here, we …

We present an effective field theory approach to the fracton phases. The approach is based
on the notion of a multipole algebra. It is an extension of space (time) symmetries of a …

Based on several previous examples, we summarize explicitly the general procedure to
gauge models with subsystem symmetries, which are symmetries with generators that have …

We consistently couple simple continuum field theories with fracton excitations to curved
spacetime backgrounds. We consider homogeneous and isotropic fracton field theories, with …

We study't Hooft anomalies and the related anomaly inflow for subsystem global symmetries.
These symmetries and anomalies arise in a number of exotic systems, including models with …
