Title: Alterfold Theory and Modular Invariance

Abstract: We will present new insights in alterfold theory to study modular tensor categories. We provide streamlined quick proofs and broad generalizations of a wide range of results on modular invariance of modular tensor categories.

It is based on joint work with M. Shuang, Y. Wang and J. Wu, arXiv:2412.12702.
