On continuous 2-category symmetries and Yang-Mills theory
Abstract We study a 4d gauge theory U(1) N−1 ⋊ S N obtained from a U(1) N−1 theory by gauging a 0-form symmetry S N . We show that this theory has a global continuous 2-category symmetry, whose structure is particularly rich for N > 2. This example allows us to draw a connection between the highe...
