| Title | Orbifolds of defect TQFTs |
| Abstract | I discuss a general framework that unifies group orbifolds and state sum models, in the context of topological quantum field theory (TQFT) in arbitrary dimension. After a review of the 2-dimensional case, I will outline general aspects of the construction and and discuss examples in 3 dimensions, including surface defects in quantised Chern-Simons theory. This joint work with I. Runkel and G. Schaumann. |
