SIMIS Seminar on Field Theory and String Theory: B-brane transport in nonabelian GLSMs and its applications
Speaker: Jirui Guo (Tongji University) Abstract: B-branes are the boundary conditions of gauged linear sigma models (GLSM) compatible with B-type topological twist. Their categorical structure provides a powerful tool in analysing the phases of the GLSMs. A transport of the brane from one phase to another realizes an explicit faithful functor between the two phases. …
