abstract
In this Letter, we demonstrate that the Symmetry Topological Field Theory (SymTFT) associated to a Quantum Field Theory (QFT) with continuous non-abelian $G$-flavor symmetry is a $BF$-theory with gauge group $G$. We show that gauging $G$-symmetry with a flat connection yields a theory with global symmetry characterized by exchanging the conjugate variables in the quantization of $BF$-theory. We construct the extended operators that generate the $G$-flavor symmetry and the $(d-2)$-form $\text{Rep}(G)$-symmetry of the gauged QFT. We demonstrate that $BF$-theory arises as the theory characterizing $G$-flavor symmetry of a QFT in the AdS/CFT setup. 't Hooft anomalies of the $G$-flavor symmetry are realized as extra terms in the action.

Symmetry TFTs for Continuous Spacetime Symmetries
Continuous spacetime symmetries can be encoded in a (d+1)-dimensional BF/Chern-Simons topological field theory, whose boundary reproduces symmetry generators, symmetry breaking, and anomalies.

Disjoint additivity and local quantum physics
Local quantum systems should obey disjoint additivity plus Haag duality, a combination that survives higher-form symmetries and fails for known nonlocal constructions.

Continuous symmetries and charge measurement of boundary operators in holography
Continuous symmetry operators in holography are U-shaped hanging brane bound states (D5-KK in Type IIB, M5-KK in M-theory) whose worldvolume couplings reproduce the Gauss-law symmetry operators and measure charges of ...

SymTFT for Continuous Symmetries: Non-linear Realizations and Spontaneous Breaking
Continuous-symmetry SymTFTs are extended to non-linear coset realizations and to spontaneous breaking using boundary and corner constructions, recovering CCWZ actions and SSB Ward identities.

Symmetry, Symmetry Topological Field Theory and von Neumann Algebra
The symmetric-sector von Neumann algebra of a QFT violates additivity or Haag duality exactly when the Lagrangian algebra of its SymTFT contains operators beyond the identity, with a sharper criterion distinguishing t...
