These spin chains appear in various gauge theories. They can be created in 4d Chern-Simons theories with line operators, mapped to massive vacua of certain 2d N=(2,2) gauge theories using Bethe/Gauge correspondences, described in terms of vortices and monopole operators in 3d N=4 theories etc. I will argue that all these descriptions of the spin chains can be seen as different perspectives of the same string theory setups. https://theias.zoom.us/j/84116605050?pwd=VHV6VkRUM3hkM2dFSlo2QWJiUWtPdz… Sponsor IAS
