Coupling a QFT to a TQFT and duality

Coupling a QFT to a TQFT and duality

We consider coupling an ordinary quantum field theory with an infinite number of degrees of freedom to a topological field theory. On $ \mathbb{R} $ d the new theory differs from the original one by the spectrum of operators. Sometimes the local operators are the same but there are different …
