Title: Categorical symmetry and non-invertible gravitational anomaly: Understanding strongly correlated gapless systems.

Abstract: Using some 1d examples, we show the emergence of symmetry and dual symmetry in gapless states, which may be a general feature for all gapless state. The symmetry and dual symmetry together is called categorical symmetry which is same as non-invertible gravitational anomaly. We will use this point of view to study some new strongly correlated gapless states.
