High Energy Theory Seminar

Topologically Twisted Index and Casson-Walker Invariant

In the beginning of my talk I will review some general facts about 3d-3d correspondence and describe how to construct 3d theory T[M_3] associated to a Seifert 3-manifold M_3. Then I will show how one can calculate the Casson-Walker invariant of M_3 in terms of topologically twisted index of T[M_3].
