Fiber 2-functor conjecture for parameterized 2+1d non-chiral SPT phases
Let be a fusion 2-category and let be the 2-category of finite semisimple 1-categories. A fiber 2-functor is a tensor 2-functor . The fiber 2-functor conjecture. For non-chiral 2+1d SPT states labeled by , -parameterized families are classified by the group of isomorphism classes of monoidal natural automorphisms of , while -parameterized families are classified by the group of invertible monoidal modifications of the identity natural transformation of . The conjecture extends the categorical description of SPT phases to parameterized families in higher dimensions; the paper gives consistency checks and examples, but the general claim remains open.
