This is a study of weakly integral braided fusion categories with elementary fusion rules to determine which possess nondegenerately braided extensions of theoretically minimal dimension, or equivalently in this case, which satisfy the minimal modular extension conjecture. We classify near-group braided fusion categories satisfying the minimal modular extension conjecture; the remaining Tambara-Yamagami braided fusion categories provide arbitrarily large families of braided fusion categories with identical fusion rules violating the minimal modular extension conjecture. These examples generalize to braided fusion categories with the fusion rules of the representation categories of extraspecial $p$-groups for any prime $p$, which possess a minimal modular extension only if they arise as the adjoint subcategory of a twisted double of an extraspecial $p$-group.
The Witt group of nondegenerate braided fusion categories $mathcal{W}$ contains a subgroup $mathcal{W}_text{un}$ consisting of Witt equivalence classes of pseudo-unitary nondegenerate braided fusion categories. For each finite-dimensional simple Lie
We study exact sequences of finite tensor categories of the form $Rep G to C to D$, where $G$ is a finite group. We show that, under suitable assumptions, there exists a group $Gamma$ and mutual actions by permutations $rhd: Gamma times G to G$ and $
We classify various types of graded extensions of a finite braided tensor category $cal B$ in terms of its $2$-categorical Picard groups. In particular, we prove that braided extensions of $cal B$ by a finite group $A$ correspond to braided monoidal
We show any slightly degenerate weakly group-theoretical fusion category admits a minimal extension. Let $d$ be a positive square-free integer, given a weakly group-theoretical non-degenerate fusion category $mathcal{C}$, assume that $text{FPdim}(mat
We introduce a finiteness property for braided fusion categories, describe a conjecture that would characterize categories possessing this, and verify the conjecture in a number of important cases. In particular we say a category has F if the associa
