DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/TQFT/19/">$3
 d$ A and B models and link homology</a>\nby Tudor Dimofte (University of C
 alifornia\, Davis) as part of Topological Quantum Field Theory Club (IST\,
  Lisbon)\n\n\nAbstract\nI will discuss some current work (with Garner\, Hi
 lburn\, Oblomkov\, and Rozansky) on new and old constructions of HOMFLY-PT
  link homology in physics and mathematics\, and new connections among them
 . In particular\, we relate the classic proposal of Gukov-Schwarz-Vafa\, i
 nvolving M-theory on a resolved conifold\, to constructions in $3d$ TQFT's
 . In the talk\, I will focus mainly on the $3d$ part of the story. I'll re
 view general aspects of $3d$ TQFT's\, in particular the "$3d$ A and B mode
 ls" that play a role here\, and how link homology appears in them.\n
