DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/QGS/78/">Com
 paring different constructions of modular categories</a>\nby Julia Plavnik
  (Indiana University Bloomington\, USA) as part of Quantum Groups Seminar 
 [QGS]\n\n\nAbstract\nModular categories arise naturally in many areas of m
 athematics\, such as conformal field theory\, representations of braid gro
 ups\, quantum groups\, and Hopf algebras\, and low dimensional topology\, 
 and they have important applications in condensed matter physics.\n\nDespi
 te recent progress in the classification of modular categories\, we are st
 ill in the early stages of this theory and the general landscape remains l
 argely unexplored. One important step towards deepening our understanding 
 of modular categories is to have well-studied constructions. In this talk\
 , we will present an overview of various of these constructions and compar
 e their properties. We will focus on ribbon zesting and symmetry gauging\,
  and we will comment on some constructions in the G-crossed setting.\n
