Abstract

A bstract We propose a SymTFT for 4d U( N ) Yang-Mills theory and its variants. We show that the SymTFT reproduces the structure of the global one-form symmetry in these theories. We consider the holographic embedding of this SymTFT, and observe that SymTFT’s containing continuous symmetries are not always obtained as a near boundary limit of the supergravity action.
