Invertible Fusion Categories
A tensor category $\mathcal{C}$ over a field $\mathbb{K}$ is said to be invertible if there's a tensor category $\mathcal{D}$ such that $\mathcal{C}\boxtimes\mathcal{D}$ is Morita equivalent to $\mathrm{Vec}_{\mathbb{K}}$. When $\mathbb{K}$ is algebraically closed, it is well-known that the onl...

Zusammenfassung: | A tensor category $\mathcal{C}$ over a field $\mathbb{K}$ is said to be
invertible if there's a tensor category $\mathcal{D}$ such that
$\mathcal{C}\boxtimes\mathcal{D}$ is Morita equivalent to
$\mathrm{Vec}_{\mathbb{K}}$. When $\mathbb{K}$ is algebraically closed, it is
well-known that the only invertible fusion category is
$\mathrm{Vec}_{\mathbb{K}}$, and any invertible multi-fusion category is Morita
equivalent to $\mathrm{Vec}_{\mathbb{K}}$. By contrast, we show that for
general $\mathbb{K}$ the invertible multi-fusion categories over a field
$\mathbb{K}$ are classified (up to Morita equivalence) by
$H^3(\mathbb{K};\mathbb{G}_m)$, the third Galois cohomology of the absolute
Galois group of $\mathbb{K}$. We explicitly construct a representative of each
class that is fusion (but not split fusion) in the sense that the unit object
is simple (but not split simple). One consequence of our results is that fusion
categories with braided equivalent Drinfeld centers need not be Morita
equivalent when this cohomology group is nontrivial. |
