Abstract: |
We will see how simple geometric methods can be applied to understand many non-perturbative aspects of supersymmetric physics in five dimensions. These applications include: 1. Classification of 5d superconformal field theories 2. 5d and 6d UV completions of 5d gauge theories 3. Dualities between 5d gauge theories 4. T-dualities between 6d little string theories 5. Duality between M-theory and F-theory compactified on Calabi-Yau threefolds. |
