چکیده
We develop a systematic theory of symmetry fractionalization for fermionic topological phases matter in (2+1)D with general group $G_f$. In $G_f$ is central extension the bosonic $G_b$ by fermion parity, $(-1)^F$, characterized non-trivial cohomology class $[\omega_2] \in \mathcal{H}^2(G_b, \mathbb{Z}_2)$. show how presence local fermions places number constraints on algebraic data that defines action super-modular tensor category characterizes anyon content. find two separate obstructions to defining fractionalization, which we refer as and localization obstructions. The former valued $\mathcal{H}^3(G_b, K(\mathcal{C}))$, while latter either $\mathcal{H}^3(G_b,\mathcal{A}/\{1,\psi\})$ or $Z^2(G_b, \mathbb{Z}_2)$ depending additional details theory. $K(\mathcal{C})$ Abelian functions from anyons $\mathrm{U}(1)$ obeying fusion rules, $\mathcal{A}$ defined anyons, $\psi$ fermion. When these vanish, distinct patterns form torsor over $\mathcal{H}^2(G_b, \mathcal{A}/\{1,\psi\})$. study examples detail; particular provide characterization Kramers degeneracy arising DIII within this framework, discuss fractional quantum Hall $\mathbb{Z}_2$ spin liquid states electrons.

Symmetry Fractionalization and Topological Order
In this article, I would first introduce a new phase of matter with symmetry fractionalization and symmetry protected topological orders. Such a system is beyond Landau's symmetry breaking theory. For a symmetry protected topological ordered state, even without symmetry breaking, it is still different from a conventional non-symmetry breaking one as it cannot be adiabatically connected to a tri...
متن کاملSymmetry fractionalization in two dimensional topological phases
Symmetry fractionalization describes the fascinating phenomena that excitations in a 2D topological system can transform under symmetry in a fractional way. For example in fractional quantum Hall systems, excitations can carry fractional charges while the electrons making up the system have charge one. An important question is to understand what symmetry fractionalization (SF) patterns are poss...

متن کاملSpinor bosonic atoms in optical lattices: symmetry breaking and fractionalization.
We study superfluid and Mott insulator phases of cold spin-1 Bose atoms with antiferromagnetic interactions in an optical lattice, including a usual polar condensate phase, a condensate of singlet pairs, a crystal spin nematic phase, and a spin singlet crystal phase. We suggest a possibility of exotic fractionalized phases of spinor Bose-Einstein condensates and discuss them in the language of ...
