Beschreibung

I will discuss a theory of topological insulators with topological order. The topological field theory exhibits oblique confinement with a universal "magneto-electric" response to background two-form probe fields. I will discuss the relation of this system with a lattice gauge theory of Z_N gauge fields with a 𝜃 term.
