Aspects of locality, unitarity, and symmetries

Abstract: In this talk, I will explore some aspects of the apparent tension between locality and unitarity for symmetries in quantum field theory. I will then discuss how locality can impose regularity conditions on the Hilbert space, and use this to define an observable that measures the non-locality of symmetry operators. In examples, this observable encodes data about the fusion algebra of the symmetries.
