QM Research Seminar: Calabi-Yau threefold flops as quiver varieties from monopole deformations

Abstract:
​​​​​​​
We present a new algorithm to extract the quiver and superpotential of a broad class of threefolds that fall under simple threefold flops. These geometries are generally non-toric and can be viewed as monodromic fibrations over a complex plane of deformed ADE singularities. We illustrate how the quantum field theory of a D2 brane probing these spaces captures their non-commutative resolution (NCCR).
