Description
Recently Romelsberger made some conjectures about an index for N=1 superconformal quantum field theories applied to certain Seiberg dual theories. Recent joint work by me and Hugh Osborn proves and extends these conjectures by employing certain q-series type identities. I will discuss the superconformal index, how it applies for more general N=1 dual theories and, briefly, the proof of these conjectures.
