What is Anyon Condensation in Virasoro TQFT: Wormhole Factorization about?

Anyon condensation in wormhole geometries is investigated in the Virasoro TQFT (VTQFT) formulation. We first review some elementary techniques of VTQFT and verify its consistency by showing that it reproduces semiclassical results, including the Hawking-Page phase transition and the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of BTZ blackhole. We then summarize a gauging scheme for non-invertible symmetries referred to as anyon condensation and exhibit that it is applicable to VTQFT even though the category of Wilson lines associated with it is not strictly a modular tensor category (MTC). More specifically, it is shown that the partition function of the wormhole factorizes upon condensating the so-called diagonal condensable anyon in VTQFT.
