“Bosonization in Two and Three Dimensions and Spin Structures”

* Location: Bloomberg Lecture Hall

Time: 2:30 PM

Speaker(s): Anton Kapustin, California Institute of Technology

*Description:* I will explain in examples how to incroporate the 
dependence on spin structure in fermionic lattice models. In two 
dimensions, I show to construct a spin-TQFT out of a superalgebra. In 
three dimensions, it turns out that fermionic lattice models are related 
to bosonic models with a global 1-form symmetry. This bosonization 
statement can be used to classify Symmetry Protected Topologicall phases 
of fermions.
