Theory of (2+1)-dimensional fermionic topological orders and fermionic/bosonic topological orders with symmetries

We propose a systematic framework to classify (2+1)-dimensional (2+1D) fermionic topological orders without symmetry and 2+1D fermionic/bosonic topological orders with symmetry G. The key is to use the so-called symmetric fusion category E to describe the symmetry. Here, E=sRep(Z[subscript 2][supers...
