Title:
Quiver gauge theories and integrable lattice models

Speaker:
Junya Yagi

Abstract:
I will discuss connections among supersymmetric quiver gauge theories, topological quantum field theories (TQFTs), and integrable lattice models in statistical mechanics. This work combines ideas from (1) the correspondence between class-S theories and TQFTs; (2) "gauge/YBE correspondence" between N=1 supersymmetric indices and solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation; and (3) Costello's construction of integrable lattice models from TQFTs equipped with line operators.
