- Authors: Clement Delcamp, Norbert Schuch
- Abstract summary: We define two dual tensor network representations of the (3+1)d toric code ground state subspace.
We argue that, depending on the representation, the phase diagram of boundary entanglement degrees of freedom is naturally associated with that of a (2+1)d Hamiltonian displaying either a global gauge or a gauge Z$-symmetry.

- Abstract: We define two dual tensor network representations of the (3+1)d toric code
ground state subspace. These two representations, which are obtained by
initially imposing either family of stabilizer constraints, are characterized
by different virtual symmetries generated by string-like and membrane-like
operators, respectively. We discuss the topological properties of the model
from the point of view of these virtual symmetries, emphasizing the differences
between both representations. In particular, we argue that, depending on the
representation, the phase diagram of boundary entanglement degrees of freedom
is naturally associated with that of a (2+1)d Hamiltonian displaying either a
global or a gauge $\mathbb Z_2$-symmetry.

Key aspects of the AdS/CFT correspondence can be captured in terms of tensor network models on hyperbolic lattices.
For tensors fulfilling the matchgate constraint, these have previously been shown to produce disordered boundary states.
We show that these Hamiltonians exhibit multi-scale quasiperiodic symmetries captured by an analytical toy model.

For a spinless quantum particle in a one-dimensional box or an electromagnetic wave in a one-dimensional cavity, the respective Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions both lead to non-degenerate wave functions.
In two spatial dimensions, the symmetry of the box or microstrip antenna is an important feature that has often been overlooked in the literature.

We construct a representation of the 3d toric code ground state that is stable to a generating set of uniform local tensors.
The stability is established by mapping the phase diagram of the perturbed tensor network to that of the 3d Ising gauge theory.
In particular, a dual representation of the 3d toric code ground state, as well as representations of the X-cube and cubic code ground states, for which point-like excitations are created by such operators, are found to be unstable.

Images encode both the state of the world and its content.
The automatic extraction of this information is challenging because of the high-dimensionality and entangled encoding inherent to the image representation.

We show that all these string-net PEPS representations can be understood as specific instances of Turaev-Viro state-sum models of topological field theory on three-manifolds with a physical boundary.
