Description

I will discuss general topological structure of sigma model actions which are useful for both actions and sigma model anomalies. Modulo continuous deformations, those terms are classified by the Anderson dual of bordism. If time permits, I will also discuss generalization of sigma models by combining symmetries in a nontrivial way.
