Abstract:

This talk is about the 4D/2D duality by Beem et al., which is a new connection between quantum field theory and representation theory discovered rather recently. It associates an algebraic object called VOA to any 4-dimensional superconformal field theory with N=2 supersymmetry and it is expected that the resulting VOAs have very rich representation theory, which is yet to be investigated.
