Symmetries of a rigid braided category

We identify natural symmetries of each rigid higher braided category. Specifically, we construct a functorial action by the continuous group $Ω\mathsf{O}(n)$ on each $\mathcal{E}_{n-1}$-monoidal $(g,d)$-category $\mathcal{R}$ in which each object is dualizable (for $n\geq 2$, $d \geq 0$, $d \leq g \leq \infty$). This action determines a canonical action by the continuous group $Ω\mathbb{R}\mathbb{P}^{n-1}$ on the moduli space of objects of each such $\mathcal{R}$. In cases where the parameters $n$, $d$, and $g$ are small, we compare these continuous symmetries to known symmetries, which manifest as categorical identities.
