Gauging
- gauge a finte group/discrete symmetry
~discrete Fourier transformation of the partition function: theory with global p-form symmetry and associated BG currents ,
whereis coupling the dual theory to the current of (or a pairing between and , Poincare duality) and is the weight in the Fourier transform.
The dual symmetryis a -form symmetry, the Pontryagin dual of : . It provides a explicit expression for the -form symmetry generator: (just charges for the -form one)
which acts on/links with-dim operators. Its own generator is given by . - gauge a continuous symmetry
eg. Maxwell in 4d
