Author(s): Matthew F. Lapa and Taylor L. Hughes We canonically quantize O ( D + 2 ) nonlinear sigma models (NLSMs) with a theta term on arbitrary smooth, closed, connected, oriented D -dimensional spatial manifolds M , with the goal of proving the suitability of these models for describing symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases of bosons in D spati...
