These are a set of lecture notes on generalized global symmetries in quantum field theory.
The focus is on invertible symmetries with a few comments regarding non-invertible …

In this lecture note, we give a basic introduction to the rapidly developing concepts of
generalized symmetries, from the perspectives of both high energy physics and condensed …

The modern approach to m‐form global symmetries in ad‐dimensional quantum field theory
(QFT) entails specifying dimension d− m− 1 dm-1 topological generalized symmetry …

A bstract We study the non-invertible symmetries of class\(\mathcal {S}\) theories obtained by
compactifying the type\({\mathfrak {a}} _ {p-1}\) 6d (2, 0) theory on a genus g Riemann …

Topological duality defects arise as codimension one generalized symmetry operators in
quantum field theories (QFTs) with a duality symmetry. Recent investigations have shown …

A bstract It is well-known that six-dimensional superconformal field theories can be exploited
to unravel interesting features of lower-dimensional theories obtained via compactifications …

Recently it has been observed that branes in geometric engineering and holography have a
striking connection with generalized global symmetries. In this paper we argue that branes …

A bstract We derive the Symmetry Topological Field Theories (SymTFTs) for 3d
supersymmetric quantum field theories (QFTs) constructed in M-theory either via geometric …

R7-branes are a class of recently discovered nonsupersymmetric real codimension-two
duality defects in type IIB string theory predicted by the swampland cobordism conjecture …

Orbifold singularities of M-theory constitute the building blocks of a broad class of
supersymmetric quantum field theories (SQFTs). In this paper we show how the local data of …
