Topological aspects of brane fields: Solitons and higher-form symmetries

In this note, we classify topological solitons of n-brane fields, which are nonlocal fields that describe n-dimensional extended objects. We consider a class of n-brane fields that formally define a homomorphism from the n-fold loop space $\Omega^n X_D$ of spacetime $X_D$ to a space $\mathbb{E}_n$....
