Joint High Energy Physics Seminars: "Indices, Partition Functions and the A-Twist Across Dimensions"

Date: 
Tue, 25/04/201712:00-13:00
Location: 
White Dove Conference Hall at Neve-Shalom
Lecturer: Dr. Cyril Closset
Affiliation: CERN, Genève
Abstract:
I will present some recent results about supersymmetric indices, partition functions and related observables that can be computed exactly on a large class of supersymmetric background geometries, in three- and four-dimensional gauge theories with four flat-space supercharges. I will emphasize interesting relationships between these observables, and their common origin in a A-twisted topological field theory in two dimensions.
