Explore the intricacies of Chern-Simons field theory and its applications in a comprehensive lecture delivered by Pichai Ramadevi from the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay. Delve into the natural framework this theory provides for studying knots, links, and three-manifolds. Begin with an examination of the construction of invariants for these mathematical structures. Progress to recent developments in knot-quiver correspondence, gaining insights into this cutting-edge area of research. Conclude by discovering new three-manifold invariants known as Zhat invariants, as presented by the speaker. This 1 hour and 34-minute colloquium, hosted by the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences, offers a deep dive into advanced topics in theoretical physics and mathematics.
