We discuss a recipe to produce a lattice construction of fermionic phases of matter on unoriented manifolds. This is performed by extending the construction of spin TQFT via the Grassmann integral proposed by Gaiotto and Kapustin, to the unoriented pin$_pm$ case. As an application, we construct gapped boundaries for time-reversal-invariant Gu-Wen fermionic SPT phases. In addition, we provide a lattice definition of (1+1)d pin$_-$ invertible theory whose partition function is the Arf-Brown-Kervaire invariant, which generates the $mathbb{Z}_8$ classification of (1+1)d topological superconductors. We also compute the indicator formula of $mathbb{Z}_{16}$ valued time-reversal anomaly for (2+1)d pin$_+$ TQFT based on our construction.

We derive a canonical form for 2-group gauge theory in 3+1D which shows they are either equivalent to Dijkgraaf-Witten theory or to the so-called EF1 topological order of Lan-Wen. According to that classification, recently argued from a different poi nt of view by Johnson-Freyd, this amounts to a very large class of all 3+1D TQFTs. We use this canonical form to compute all possible anomalies of 2-group gauge theory which may occur without spontaneous symmetry breaking, providing a converse of the recent symmetry-enforced-gaplessness constraints of Cordova-Ohmori and also uncovering some possible new examples. On the other hand, in cases where the anomaly is matched by a TQFT, we try to provide the simplest possible such TQFT. For example, with anomalies involving time reversal, $mathbb{Z}_2$ gauge theory almost always works.

These notes offer an introduction to the functorial and algebraic description of 2-dimensional topological quantum field theories `with defects, assuming only superficial familiarity with closed TQFTs in terms of commutative Frobenius algebras. The g eneralisation of this relation is a construction of pivotal 2-categories from defect TQFTs. We review this construction in detail, flanked by a range of examples. Furthermore we explain how open/closed TQFTs are equivalent to Calabi-Yau categories and the Cardy condition, and how to extract such data from pivotal 2-categories.
Given a (2+1)D fermionic topological order and a symmetry fractionalization class for a global symmetry group $G$, we show how to construct a (3+1)D topologically invariant path integral for a fermionic $G$ symmetry-protected topological state ($G$-F SPT) in terms of an exact combinatorial state sum. This provides a general way to compute anomalies in (2+1)D fermionic symmetry-enriched topological states of matter. Equivalently, our construction provides an exact (3+1)D combinatorial state sum for a path integral of any FSPT that admits a symmetry-preserving gapped boundary, including the (3+1)D topological insulators and superconductors in class AII, AIII, DIII, and CII that arise in the free fermion classification. Our construction uses the fermionic topological order (characterized by a super-modular tensor category) and symmetry fractionalization data to define a (3+1)D path integral for a bosonic theory that hosts a non-trivial emergent fermionic particle, and then condenses the fermion by summing over closed 3-form $mathbb{Z}_2$ background gauge fields. This procedure involves a number of non-trivial higher-form anomalies associated with Fermi statistics and fractional quantum numbers that need to be appropriately canceled off with a Grassmann integral that depends on a generalized spin structure. We show how our construction reproduces the $mathbb{Z}_{16}$ anomaly indicator for time-reversal symmetric topological superconductors with ${bf T}^2 = (-1)^F$. Mathematically, with standard technical assumptions, this implies that our construction gives a combinatorial state sum on a triangulated 4-manifold that can distinguish all $mathbb{Z}_{16}$ $mathrm{Pin}^+$ smooth bordism classes. As such, it contains the topological information encoded in the eta invariant of the pin$^+$ Dirac operator, thus giving an example of a state sum TQFT that can distinguish exotic smooth structure.

We propose a mechanism to pin skyrmions in chiral magnets by introducing local maximum of magnetic exchange strength, which can be realized in chiral magnetic thin films by engineering the local density of itinerate electrons. Thus we find a way to a rtificially control the position of a single skyrmion in chiral magnetic thin films. The stationary properties and the dynamical pinning and depinning processes of an isolated skyrmion around a pinning center are studied. We do a series of simulations to show that the critical current to depin a skyrmion has linearly dependence on the pinning strength. We also estimate the critical current to have order of magnitude 10^{7}sim10^{8}A/m^{2} .

We address the problem of computing temperature correlation functions of the XXZ chain, within the approach developed in our previous works. In this paper we calculate the expected values of a fermionic basis of quasi-local operators, in the infinite volume limit while keeping the Matsubara (or Trotter) direction finite. The result is expressed in terms of two basic quantities: a ratio $rho(z)$ of transfer matrix eigenvalues, and a nearest neighbour correlator $omega(z,xi)$. We explain that the latter is interpreted as the canonical second kind differential in the theory of deformed Abelian integrals.
