Title: Correlation decay for finite lattice gauge theories

Abstract: In the setting of lattice gauge theories with finite (possibly non-Abelian) gauge groups at weak coupling, we prove exponential decay of correlations for a wide class of gauge invariant functions, which in particular includes arbitrary functions of Wilson loop observables. Based on joint work with Sky Cao.
