DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/TQFT/118/">F
 eynman graph integrals from topological-holomorphic theories and their app
 lications</a>\nby Minghao Wang (Boston University) as part of Topological 
 Quantum Field Theory Club (IST\, Lisbon)\n\n\nAbstract\nFeynman graph inte
 grals of topological field theories have been proved to be ultraviolet fin
 ite by Axelrod and Singer\, and Kontsevich independently. This result lead
 s to many applications including universal finite type knot invariants and
  the formality of $E_n$ operads. In this talk\, I will extend the finitene
 ss results (and some anomaly cancellation results) to Feynman graph integr
 als of topological-holomorphic theories on flat spaces. The main technique
  for the proof is compactification of the moduli space of metric graphs. A
 s a result\, we can construct many factorization algebras from quantum top
 ological-holomorphic theories. In the special case of 4d Chern–Simons th
 eory\, the factorization algebra structure encodes the Yang–Baxter equat
 ion. If time permits\, I will sketch how to extend these results to Feynma
 n graph integrals on Kähler manifolds. Part of this work is joint with Br
 ian Williams.\n\nReference: https://arxiv.org/abs/2401.08113\n\nPlease not
