Speaker:

Tian Lan - University of Waterloo, Canada

I will talk about some ideas that are essential to build a general framework for topological phases in arbitrary dimensions. I will also discuss how these ideas are applied when global symmetry or higher symmetry is present, and how to understand and classify such higher SET/SPT orders.
