| Abstract: | The rich interplay between three-dimensional topological quantum field theories (TQFTs) and vertex operator algebras (VOAs) has been a useful bridge to understanding aspects of both subjects. In this talk, I will describe some consequences of this relationship and will highlight new instances of this phenomenon arising from topologically twisted 3d N=4 gauge theories coupled to Chern-Simons gauge fields. |
