abstract
Global internal symmetries act unitarily on local observables or states of a quantum system. In this note, we aim to generalise this statement to extended observables by considering unitary actions of finite global 2-group symmetries $\mathcal{G}$ on line operators. We propose that the latter transform in unitary 2-representations of $\mathcal{G}$, which we classify up to unitary equivalence. Our results recover the known classification of ordinary 2-representations of finite 2-groups, but provide additional data interpreted as a type of reflection anomaly for $\mathcal{G}$.

Understanding Non-Split 2-Group Symmetry: (3+1)D SymTFT, Anomaly and Bordism
For G=(Z2,Z2,triv,1), the authors classify anomalies via oriented and spin bordism in spacetime dimensions d<=5 and derive the (3+1)D SymTFT boundary conditions, including the equivalence of the anomalous symmetry cat...

Unitary Categorical Symmetries
The paper proposes that twisted-sector local operators transform in *-representations of the tube algebra of a higher fusion category symmetry, and classifies these representations using higher S-matrices.
