  • Abstract摘要
    We propose a class of of lattice renormalization group (RG) operators, each operator determined by a topological order T in D+1 space-time dimensions. Eigenstates of the RG operators produce TQFTs / CFTs with categorical symmetry characterized by the TQFTD+1. We give examples in D= 1,2,3. Particularly, at D=2, symmetric CFT's are obtained as phase transition points between topological eigenstates characterized by Frobenius algebra in the TQFT3. We also show that one can obtain the 3D Ising model as an eigenstate of the RG operator constructed from the Dijkgraaf-Witten Z2 lattice gauge theory in 4D, and numerically search for the critical temperature. We also explore the relation of the RG operator with holographic tensor networks capturing some features of the AdS/CFT correspondence.
