Speaker: Philsang Yoo (Seoul National University)
Abstract: Twists of supersymmetric Yang–Mills theories and topological string theory have each played a central role in connecting mathematics and physics. In this talk, I will explain how various twists of SYM theories can be understood from the perspective of topological string theory. Time permitting, I will also discuss how S-duality manifests in this framework.
