英文摘要：

We investigate tensor products of matrix factorisations. This is most naturally done by formulating matrix factorisations in terms of bimodules instead of modules. If the underlying ring is C[x_1,...,x_N] we show that bimodule matrix factorisations form a monoidal category. This monoidal category has a physical interpretation in terms of defect lines in a two-dimensional Landau-Ginzburg model. There is a dual description via conformal field theory, which in the special case of W=x^d is an N=2 minimal model, and which also gives rise to a monoidal category describing defect lines. We carry out a comparison of these two categories in certain subsectors by explicitly computing 6j-symbols.

Matrix factorisations for rational boundary conditions by defect fusion

A large class of two-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=(2,2)$ superconformal field theories can be understood as IR fixed-points of Landau-Ginzburg models. In particular, there are rational conformal field theories that also have a Landau-Ginzburg description. To understand better the relation between the structures in the rational conformal field theory and in the Landau-Ginzburg theory, we investigate how rational B-type boundary conditions are realised as matrix factorisations in the $SU(3)/U(2)$ Grassmannian Kazama-Suzuki model. As a tool to generate the matrix factorisations we make use of a parti…

Hermitian symplectic geometry and the factorisation of the scattering matrix on graphs

Hermitian symplectic spaces provide a natural framework for the extension theory of symmetric operators. Here we show that hermitian symplectic spaces may also be used to describe the solution to the factorisation problem for the scattering matrix on a graph, ie. we derive a formula for the scattering matrix of a graph in terms of the scattering matrices of its subgraphs. The solution of this problem is shown to be given by the intersection of a Lagrange plane and a coisotropic subspace which, in an appropriate hermitian symplectic space, forms a new Lagrange plane. The scattering matrix is gi…

Noncommutative solutions to Zamolodchikov's tetrahedron equation and matrix six-factorisation problems

It is known that the local Yang--Baxter equation is a generator of potential solutions to Zamolodchikov's tetrahedron equation. In this paper, we show under which additional conditions the solutions to the local Yang--Baxter equation are tetrahedron maps, namely solutions to the set-theoretical tetrahedron equation. This is exceptionally useful when one wants to prove that noncommutative maps satisfy the Zamolodchikov's tetrahedron equation. We construct new noncommutative maps and we prove that they possess the tetrahedron property. Moreover, by employing Darboux transformations with noncommu…

Extending the trace of a pivotal monoidal functor

We consider a pivotal monoidal functor whose domain is a modular tensor category (MTC). We show that the trace of such a functor naturally extends to a representation of the corresponding tube category. As irreducible representations of the tube category are indexed by pairs of simple objects in the underlying MTC, the simple multiplicities of this representation form a candidate modular invariant matrix. In general, this matrix will not be modular invariant, however it will always commute with the T-matrix. Furthermore, under certain additional conditions on the original functor, it is shown …

Orbifold equivalent potentials

To a graded finite-rank matrix factorisation of the difference of two homogeneous potentials one can assign two numbers, the left and right quantum dimension. The existence of such a matrix factorisation with non-zero quantum dimensions defines an equivalence relation between potentials, giving rise to non-obvious equivalences of categories. Restricted to ADE singularities, the resulting equivalence classes of potentials are those of type {A_{d-1}} for d odd, {A_{d-1},D_{d/2+1}} for d even but not in {12,18,30}, and {A_{11}, D_7, E_6}, {A_{17}, D_{10}, E_7} and {A_{29}, D_{16}, E_8}. This is t…

Extending Landau-Ginzburg models to the point

We classify framed and oriented 2-1-0-extended TQFTs with values in the bicategories of Landau-Ginzburg models, whose objects and 1-morphisms are isolated singularities and (either $\mathbb{Z}_2$- or $(\mathbb{Z}_2 \times \mathbb{Q})$-graded) matrix factorisations, respectively. For this we present the relevant symmetric monoidal structures and find that every object $W \in \Bbbk[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ determines a framed extended TQFT. We then compute the Serre automorphisms $S_W$ to show that $W$ determines an oriented extended TQFT if the associated category of matrix factorisations is $(n-2)$-Cal…

Rigidity and defect actions in Landau-Ginzburg models

Studying two-dimensional field theories in the presence of defect lines naturally gives rise to monoidal categories: their objects are the different (topological) defect conditions, their morphisms are junction fields, and their tensor product describes the fusion of defects. These categories should be equipped with a duality operation corresponding to reversing the orientation of the defect line, providing a rigid and pivotal structure. We make this structure explicit in topological Landau-Ginzburg models with potential x^d, where defects are described by matrix factorisations of x^d-y^d. The…

Categories for the practising physicist

In this chapter we survey some particular topics in category theory in a somewhat unconventional manner. Our main focus will be on monoidal categories, mostly symmetric ones, for which we propose a physical interpretation. These are particularly relevant for quantum foundations and for quantum informatics. Special attention is given to the category which has finite dimensional Hilbert spaces as objects, linear maps as morphisms, and the tensor product as its monoidal structure (FdHilb). We also provide a detailed discussion of the category which has sets as objects, relations as morphisms, and…
