Abstract
In this talk I review the recent progress made in defining homological invariants for 3-manifold using string theory constructions. This generalizes the constructions of homological invariants for knots using M5 branes, to the case of 3-manifolds.
Series This talk is part of the Isaac Newton Institute Seminar Series series.
