This conference talk by Dave Penneys from Ohio State University explores local topological order and topological holography as part of the Generalized Symmetries: High-Energy, Condensed Matter and Mathematics KITP conference held at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics at UC Santa Barbara. Delve into the cutting-edge research connecting topological defects to quantum field theory symmetries, a field that has seen tremendous progress over the past decade. The presentation contributes to an interdisciplinary conversation bridging condensed matter, high energy physics, and quantum gravity. Learn about the rich landscape of physical effects uncovered through these generalized symmetry concepts and their Lagrangian field theory implementations. The talk is part of a conference coordinated by experts Maissam Barkeshli, Michele Del Zotto, Sakura Schafer-Nameki, and Shu-Heng Shao, designed to bring participants up to speed with recent advances and open problems in this rapidly evolving field.
