Excitations in the higher lattice gauge theory model for topological phases III: the 3+1d case

In this, the third paper in our series describing the excitations of the higher lattice gauge theory model for topological phases, we will examine the 3+1d case in detail. We will explicitly construct the ribbon and membrane operators which create the topological excitations, and use these creation...
