Higher-form symmetry breaking at Ising transitions

In recent years, new phases of matter that are beyond the Landau paradigm of symmetry breaking have been accumulating, and to catch up with this fast development, new notions of global symmetry are introduced. Among them, the higher-form symmetry, whose symmetry charges are spatially extended, can b...
