Survey into 3d-3d correspondence Gukov, Sergei

Description

Compactification of the 6d fivebrane theory on 3-manifolds is believed to result in a particular class of 3d N = 2 theories, whose physical properties contain rich information about geometry and topology of 3-manifolds. In this talk, I will survey the status of this subject, from basic ideas to what in financial markets are called “stress test” examples, which expose limitations, challenges, and open questions that require further development.
