Quantum Wilson surfaces and topological interactions

Abstract We introduce the description of a Wilson surface as a 2-dimensional topological quantum field theory with a 1-dimensional Hilbert space. On a closed surface, the Wilson surface theory defines a topological invariant of the principal G-bundle P → Σ. Interestingly, it can interact topological...
