DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/LieTheory/3/
 ">VOAs: From representation theory to physics</a>\nby Thomas Creutzig (Uni
 versity of Alberta) as part of CRM-Regional Conference in Lie Theory\n\nLe
 cture held in Virtual.\n\nAbstract\nVertex operator algebras (VOAs) often 
 serve as a bridge connecting interesting problems. I aim to explain such a
 n exciting connection to non-experts.   The problem are representations of
  affine Lie superalgebras and related W-superalgebras and their connection
  to geometry and physics.\nI will introduce VOA-analogues of the space of 
 functions on a compact Lie group. Then I will explain what these VOAs tell
  us about equivalences of representation categories of different VOAs and 
 how they are motivated from dualities in four-dimensional gauge theories.\
