Infinitely Many New Renormalization Group Flows Between Virasoro Minimal Models from Non-Invertible Symmetries

Abstract: We discuss the role of non-invertible symmetries in RG flows between Virasoro minimal models. They give infinitely many new constraints by generalizing the notion of anomaly matching to non-invertible symmetries, leading to the predictions of infinitely many new RG flows. Our general classification includes the old flows such as Zamolldchikov's unitary flows, but also all the examples known including the recent sporadic one e.g. proposed by Klebanov et al.
