IAS PROGRAM ON PARTICLE THEORY
Gravity Duals of 3d Gauge Theories
William Cottrell, University of Wisconsin-Madison
Date : 26 Mar 2014 (Wednesday)
Time : 4:15 pm
Venue : IAS4042, 4/F, Lo Ka Chung Building, Lee Shau Kee Campus, HKUST

Abstract

In this talk the speaker would like to explore how various phenomenon in 3d gauge theories are reflected in the gravitational dual. In particular, he would like to understand the gravitational signatures of dynamical supersymmetry breaking and the good/bad/ugly classification of Gaiotto-Witten. Finally, he will make some remarks regarding the relationship between this problem and the ADHMN construction of the monopole moduli space.

The seminar is free and open to all. Seating is on a first-come, first-served basis.
