abstract:

Generalised notions of symmetries have received widespread attention in recent years. Though exotic, such generalised symmetries have been shown to naturally arise for instance as dual symmetries upon gauging ordinary symmetries. In this talk, I will present a systematic framework to investigate dualities of quantum lattice models and study the resulting generalised symmetries. I will illustrate this framework in the context of familiar spin models.
