Abstract:

In this talk, the speaker would like to explore how various phenomenon in 3d gauge theories are reflected in the gravitational dual. In particular, he would like to understand the gravitational signatures of dynamical supersymmetry breaking and the good/bad/ugly classification of Gaiotto-Witten. Finally, he will make some remarks regarding the relationship between this problem and the ADHMN construction of the monopole moduli space.
