- Authors: Yabo Li, Zijian Song, Aleksander Kubica, Isaac H. Kim,
- Abstract summary: We propose a correspondence between 1d SPT phases with a non-invertible $Gtimes textRep(G)times G$ symmetry and invertible domain walls in the quantum double associated with the group $G$.
We also use our method to construct emphanchoring domain walls, which are novel exotic domain walls in the 3d toric code that transform point-like excitations to semi-loop-like excitations anchored on these domain walls.

- Abstract: We introduce a systematic method for constructing gapped domain walls of topologically ordered systems by gauging a lower-dimensional symmetry-protected topological (SPT) order. Based on our construction, we propose a correspondence between 1d SPT phases with a non-invertible $G\times \text{Rep}(G)\times G$ symmetry and invertible domain walls in the quantum double associated with the group $G$. We prove this correspondence when $G$ is Abelian and provide evidence for the general case by studying the quantum double model for $G=S_3$. We also use our method to construct \emph{anchoring domain walls}, which are novel exotic domain walls in the 3d toric code that transform point-like excitations to semi-loop-like excitations anchored on these domain walls.

We define the twisted Gauss law operator and implement the twisted gauging of the finite group on the lattice.
We show the twisted gauging is equivalent to the two-step procedure of first applying the SPT entangler and then untwisted gauging.

Gauging introduces gauge fields in order to localize an existing global symmetry.
By iterating the gauging process we obtain new codes that explicitly confine anyons.

We introduce a one-dimensional stabilizer Hamiltonian composed of group-based Pauli operators whose ground state is a $Gtimes textRep(G)$-symmetric state.
We show that this state lies in a symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phase protected by $Gtimes textRep(G)$ symmetry, distinct from the symmetric product state by a duality argument.

We provide a systematic treatment of boundaries based on subgroups $Ksubseteq G$ with the Kitaev quantum double $D(G)$ model in the bulk.
The boundary sites are representations of a $*$-subalgebra $Xisubseteq D(G)$ and we explicate its structure as a strong $*$-quasi-Hopf algebra.
As an application of our treatment, we study patches with boundaries based on $K=G$ horizontally and $K=e$ vertically and show how these could be used in a quantum computer

This topological gravity is of the cohomological type, and it exhibits an $cal N=2$ extended BRST symmetry.
We demonstrate a standard one-step BRST gauge-fixing of a theory whose fields are $g_ij$, $ni$ and $n$, and whose gauge symmetries consist of (i) the topological deformations of $g_ij$, and (ii) the ultralocal nonrelativistic limit of space
