Dear friends,
Next Friday, November 13,
at 14:00 CET,
Ilmar Gahramanov (Bogazici University, Istanbul, Turkey)
will give an online talk within the Balkan String Webinar series.
From a Single Duality to a Web: Bailey Chains in Supersymmetric Field
Theory
The Bailey lemma, originally developed in the theory of special
functions, has found interesting applications in supersymmetric gauge
theories. It provides a systematic way to generate new identities from
known ones. When interpreted in terms of supersymmetric partition
functions, this procedure allows us to construct families of dual gauge
theories starting from a single duality. In this talk, I will review the
role of Bailey chains in supersymmetric theories in two, three and four
dimensions. I will explain how the mathematical structure of Bailey
pairs is related to duality transformations and the construction of
quiver gauge theories. I will also discuss connections with integrable
lattice models, triangulations of 3-manifolds and knot theory.
