Non-abelian cohomology conjecture for parameterized 1+1d gapped systems
Non-abelian cohomology conjecture for parameterized 1+1d gapped systems
Let be a sufficiently nice parameter space, such as a CW complex, let be a fusion category, and let be a fixed -module category with corresponding gapped phase . Let be the 2-group of invertible objects and morphisms in the category of -module endofunctors of , and let denote its classifying space. The non-abelian cohomology conjecture. -parameterized families of 1+1d gapped systems in are classified by
of homotopy classes of maps, equivalently by the non-abelian Čech cohomology
The conjecture is motivated by the hypothesis that the space of systems in the phase is homotopy equivalent to this classifying space; the paper does not give a general proof.
