Abstract: We study the Symmetry Topological Field Theory in holography associated with 4d 풩 = 1 Super Yang-Mills theory with gauge algebra 픰픲(M). From this, all the bulk symmetry operators are computed and matched to various D-brane configurations. The fusion algebra of the operators emerges from brane dynamics. In particular, we show that the symmetry operators are purely determined from the center-of-mass modes of the branes. We identify the TQFT fusion coefficients with the relative motion of the branes. We also establish the origin of condensation defects, arising from fusion of non-invertible operators, as the consequence of tachyon condensation in brane-anti-brane pairs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
