Non-invertible symmetries and boundaries in four dimensions (2304.01550v3)

Published 4 Apr 2023 in hep-th, cond-mat.stat-mech, and hep-lat

Abstract: We study quantum field theories with boundary by utilizing non-invertible symmetries. We consider three kinds of boundary conditions of the four dimensional $\mathbb{Z}_2$ lattice gauge theory at the critical point as examples. The weights of the elements on the boundary is determined so that these boundary conditions are related by the Kramers-Wannier-Wegner (KWW) duality. In other words, it is required that the KWW duality defects ending on the boundary is topological. Moreover, we obtain the ratios of the hemisphere partition functions with these boundary conditions; this result constrains the boundary renormalization group flows under the assumption of the conjectured g-theorem in four dimensions.
