Excitations in the higher lattice gauge theory model for topological phases I: Overview

In this series of papers, we study a Hamiltonian model for (3+1)-dimensional topological phases introduced in [Bullivant et al., Phys. Rev. B 95, 155118 (2017)], based on a generalization of lattice gauge theory known as “higher-lattice gauge theory.” Higher-lattice gauge theory has so-called “2-gau...
