Twisting 3d Gauge Theories
Mathematical Physics Seminar| Speaker: | Niklas Garner, U.C. Davis |

I will give a brief introduction to twists of supersymmetric QFTs in three dimensions and discuss a compact way of writing the holomorphic-topological twist of N=2 theories in the BV formalism using the twisted superfields of Aganagic-Costello-McNamara-Vafa. I will then move to some work in progress on how to use this language to approach topological twists of N=4 Yang-Mills theory and N=4 Chern-Simons theory. Time permitting, I will describe some aspects of bulk and boundary local operators in these theories.
