Description
The classification of superconformal field theories is a popular subject in mathematical physics. In this talk, I'm going to focus on the construction and classification of 5d N=1 SCFTs. Many of these strongly coupled theories can be thought as UV completions of 5d supersymmetric gauge theories. In the framework of string theory, these SCFTs have an elegant geometric construction of 11d M-theory on a Calabi-Yau threefold singularity. The deformations of SCFT (Coulomb branch and Higgs branch) have an exact geometric correspondence with the desingularizations of the singularity. I'm going to present my recent works on this subject from both Coulomb branch and Higgs branch point of view. Introduction of the speaker: 王一男于2013年在北京大学物理学院获得学士学位,于2018年在美国麻省理工学院获得物理学博士学位。自2018年至今在英国牛津大学数学系做博士后,预计2021年5月入职北京大学物理学院,任助理教授。王一男博士的主要研究方向包括弦论、量子场论、数学物理以及物理中的计算方法。 Online Tencent/VOOV meeting: https://meeting.tencent.com/s/p6oYzgUu7Uwf 会议 ID:293 509 543
