SUMMARY:Going to the other side .... in algebra\, topology\, and maybe physics
DESCRIPTION:Quantum Field Theory and Physical Mathematics \nSpeaker: Sergei Gukov (Caltech)\n\nTitle: Going to the other side …. in algebra\, topology\, and maybe physics\n\nAbstract: Inspired by Eugene Wigner’s reflections on the ‘unreasonable effectiveness of mathematics in the natural sciences\,’ this talk is about the surprising and pervasive role of a peculiar phenomenon that\, a priori\, seemed to have no reason to exist. Yet\, it emerges across many different areas of mathematics and theoretical physics\, including: \n\nthe Kazhdan-Lusztig correspondence\nquantum invariants of 3-manifolds\nthe study of 2d (0\,2) boundary conditions in 3d N=2 theories\nresurgent analysis\n\nAlthough each of these fields approaches the phenomenon from a different perspective\, the results align in striking and unexpected ways. \n\n
