Auto-equivalences of the modular tensor categories of type $A$, $B$, $C$ and $G$
Abstract: We compute the monoidal and braided auto-equivalences of the modular tensor categories $\mathcal{C}(\mathfrak{sl}{r+1},k)$, $\mathcal{C}(\mathfrak{so}{2r+1},k)$, $\mathcal{C}(\mathfrak{sp}{2r},k)$, and $\mathcal{C}(\mathfrak{g}{2},k)$. Along with the expected simple current auto-equivalences, we show the existence of the charge conjugation auto-equivalence of $\mathcal{C}(\mathfrak{sl}{r+1},k)$, and exceptional auto-equivalences of $\mathcal{C}(\mathfrak{so}{2r+1},2)$, $\mathcal{C}(\mathfrak{sp}{2r},r)$, $\mathcal{C}(\mathfrak{g}{2},4)$. We end the paper with a section discussing potential applications of these computations.
