- Description
- Tensor categories have a far-reaching interpretation as quantum symmetries of 3-dimensional topological field theory (3d TFT).
This leads to a correspondence between algebraic structures related to tensor categories and TFT.
In this talk I will discuss instances of this correspondence for pivotal structures on tensor categories, module categories, and defects in oriented TFTs.
