Geometric Engineering and Correspondences
Michele del Zotto (Uppsala)
Abstract: The prediction of the existence of correspondences among QFTs is one the many interesting applications of higher dimensional SCFTs. In this talk, I will discuss a strategy to predict further correspondences which is rooted in geometric engineering. Several examples and applications will be presented. In particular, I will discuss some aspects of a recently found 5d/7d correspondence that links higher Donaldson-Thomas theory to 5d SCFT partition functions on multicentered Taub-NUT spaces.
