Abstract
The authors introduce a type of three-dimensional topological orderenriched by planar subsystem symmetries, and show that it ischaracterized by the fractionalization of the symmetries on loop-likeexcitations, an increased value of the topological entanglemententropy, and the emergence of non-abelian fracton excitations upongauging the symmetry
