Title:
F-theory on Singular Spaces
Speaker:
Abstract:
F-theory is a strong coupling formulation of Type IIB string theory which unifies gravitational and gauge theory data of 7-branes in the geometry of elliptic fibrations. In all situations of interest such fibrations are singular spaces, and, in order to describe the low-energy physics, one typically removes the singularities either via resolutions or deformations. On the contrary, in this talk, I will show how Matrix Factorizations allow us to access part of the physical data while working on the singular
