Adventure in Topological Phase Transitions in 3 + 1 -D: Non-Abelian Deconfined Quantum Criticalities and a Possible Duality

Continuous quantum phase transitions beyond the conventional paradigm of fluctuations of a symmetry-breaking order parameter are challenging for theory. These phase transitions often involve emergent deconfined gauge fields at the critical points as demonstrated in phase transitions between differen...
