Boson-fermion duality with subsystem symmetry (2206.02727v2)

Published 6 Jun 2022 in cond-mat.str-el and hep-th

Abstract: We explore an exact duality in $(2+1)$d between the fermionization of a bosonic theory with a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ subsystem symmetry and a fermionic theory with a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ subsystem fermion parity symmetry. A typical example is the duality between the fermionization of the plaquette Ising model and the plaquette fermion model. We first revisit the standard boson-fermion duality in $(1+1)$d with a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ 0-from symmetry, presenting in a way generalizable to $(2+1)$d. We proceed to $(2+1)$d with a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ subsystem symmetry and establish the exact duality on the lattice by using the generalized Jordan-Wigner map, with a careful discussion on the mapping of the twist and symmetry sectors. This motivates us to introduce the subsystem Arf invariant, which exhibits a foliation structure.
