We construct examples of non-invertible global symmetries in two-dimensional superconformal field theories described by sigma models into Calabi-Yau target spaces. Our construction provides some of the first examples of non-invertible symmetry in irrational conformal field theories. Our approach begins at a Gepner point in the conformal manifold where the sigma model specializes to a rational conformal field theory and we can identify all supersymmetric topological Verlinde lines. By deforming away from this special locus using exactly marginal operators, we then identify submanifolds in moduli space where some non-invertible symmetry persists. For instance, along ten-dimensional loci in the complex structure moduli space of quintic Calabi-Yau threefolds there is a symmetry characterized by a Fibonacci fusion category. The symmetries we identify provide new constraints on spectra and correlation functions. As an application we show how they constrain conformal perturbation theory, consistent with recent results about scaling dimensions in the K3 sigma model near its Gepner point.

  1. Irrational CFTs from coupled anyon chains with non-invertible symmetries?

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    DMRG evidence from three coupled Fibonacci anyon chains points to a conformal phase with c=2.10±0.03, proposed as a candidate irrational CFT, though small system sizes leave a weakly first-order alternative open.
