Categorical Lagrangian Grassmannians and Brauer-Picard groups of pointed fusion categories

Academic Article

Abstract

  • We analyze the action of the Brauer-Picard group of a pointed fusion category on the set of Lagrangian subcategories of its center. Using this action we compute the Brauer-Picard groups of pointed fusion categories associated to several classical finite groups. As an application, we construct new examples of weakly group-theoretical fusion categories.
