Title:
Dynamic Gauge Linear Sigma Models (DGLSMs) from Six Dimensions
Speaker:
Abstract:
Compactifications of 6D Superconformal Field Theories (SCFTs) on four-manidolfds lead to novel interacting 2D SCFTs. I will describe the various Lagrangian and non-Lagrangian sectors of the resulting 2D theories, as well as their interactions. In general this construction can be embedded in compactifications of the physical superstring, providing a general template for realizing 2D conformal field theories coupled to worldsheet gravity, i.e. a UV completion for non-critical string theories.
