Attend a specialized mathematics seminar exploring cutting-edge research in low-dimensional topology and its connections to theoretical physics. Learn about ceff, a newly introduced numerical invariant for closed, oriented 3-manifolds that emerges from the intersection of topology and gauge theory. Discover how this invariant relates to the rate of growth of supersymmetric states in gauge theory T[M] corresponding to manifold M. Examine the testing of several conjectures related to T[M] and ceff specifically for integer homology 3-spheres. Explore the physical interpretation and mathematical significance of these new structures in low-dimensional topology, based on recent research findings from arXiv:2508.10087, as presented by Dmitry Noshchenko at the Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies.
