Abstract: We analyze the class of Generalized Double Semion (GDS) models in arbitrary dimensions from the point of view of lattice Hamiltonians. We show that on a $d$-dimensional spatial manifold $M$ the dual of the GDS is equivalent, up to constant depth local quantum circuits, to a group cohomology theory tensored with lower dimensional cohomology models that depend on the manifold $M$. We comment on the space-time topological quantum field theory (TQFT) interpretation of this result. We also investigate the GDS in the presence of time reversal symmetry, showing that it forms a non-trivial symmetry enriched toric code phase in odd spatial dimensions.
