Abstract  

In this talk I would like to report our recent work arxiv: 2301.07957. We computed the conformal blocks with one irregular operator in the Liouville theory using the Coloumb Gas method, also known as the free field integral representation. We derived the relation of monodromies and Stokes matrices of these conformal blocks as well as the braiding representations.  Along the way, I would explain the related mathematical terms using simple examples. I may talk about possible applications of our results if time permits.
