Fracton phases of matter

M Pretko, X Chen, Y You - International Journal of Modern Physics …, 2020 - World Scientific
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 …

Snowmass white paper: Generalized symmetries in quantum field theory and beyond

C Cordova, TT Dumitrescu, K Intriligator… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2022 - arxiv.org
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 …

Magnetic topological quantum chemistry

L Elcoro, BJ Wieder, Z Song, Y Xu, B Bradlyn… - Nature …, 2021 - nature.com
For over 100 years, the group-theoretic characterization of crystalline solids has provided
the foundational language for diverse problems in physics and chemistry. However, the …

Ergodicity breaking arising from Hilbert space fragmentation in dipole-conserving Hamiltonians

P Sala, T Rakovszky, R Verresen, M Knap, F Pollmann - Physical Review X, 2020 - APS
We show that the combination of charge and dipole conservation—characteristic of fracton
systems—leads to an extensive fragmentation of the Hilbert space, which, in turn, can lead …

Hall motions in Carroll dynamics

L Marsot, PM Zhang, M Chernodub, PA Horvathy - Physics Reports, 2023 - Elsevier
Abstract “Do Carroll particles move?” The answer depends on the characteristics of the
particle such as its mass, spin, electric charge, and magnetic moment. A massive Carroll …

Global dipole symmetry, compact Lifshitz theory, tensor gauge theory, and fractons

P Gorantla, HT Lam, N Seiberg, SH Shao - Physical Review B, 2022 - APS
We study field theories with global dipole symmetries and gauge dipole symmetries. The
famous Lifshitz theory is an example of a theory with a global dipole symmetry. We study in …

Subsystem non-invertible symmetry operators and defects

W Cao, L Li, M Yamazaki, Y Zheng - SciPost Physics, 2023 - scipost.org
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 …

Fractons, dipole symmetries and curved spacetime

L Bidussi, J Hartong, E Have, J Musaeus, S Prohazka - SciPost Physics, 2022 - scipost.org
We study complex scalar theories with dipole symmetry and uncover a no-go theorem that
governs the structure of such theories and which, in particular, reveals that a Gaussian …

Fracton hydrodynamics

A Gromov, A Lucas, RM Nandkishore - Physical Review Research, 2020 - APS
We introduce new classes of hydrodynamic theories inspired by the recently discovered
fracton phases of quantum matter. Fracton phases are characterized by elementary …
