Quantum Algebra & Quantum Topology Seminar - Yilong Wang
Title: On gauging symmetry of modular categories
Speaker: Yilong Wang (Ohio State University)
Abstract: Whenever there are group actions, interesting things happen. In this talk, we will focus on group actions on unitary modular categories, which are mathematical descriptions of symmetries of two dimensional topological phases of matter. We will introduce the concept of gauging on unitary modular categories following the paper by Cui, Galindo, Plavnik and Wang and work with simple examples.
