الوصف: | For any locality-preserving action of a group $G$ on a quantum spin chain one can define an anomaly index taking values in the group cohomology of $G$. The anomaly index is a kinematic quantity, it does not depend on the Hamiltonian. We prove that a nonzero anomaly index prohibits any $G$-invariant Hamiltonian from having $G$-invariant gapped ground states. Lieb-Schultz-Mattis-type theorems are a special case of this result when $G$ involves translations. In the case when the symmetry group $G$ is a Lie group, we define an anomaly index which takes values in the differentiable group cohomology as defined by J.-L. Brylinski and prove a similar result.
