D-branes and the planar limit of Chern-Simons theory I: Link invariants
Abstract
We revisit the Holographic duality between $SU(N)_\kappa$ Chern-Simons theory
and the A-model Topological String Theory. We develop a strategy to
systematically compute the large $N$ saddles for correlation functions of
Wilson lines in antisymmetric powers $\Lambda^\bullet \mathbb{C}^N$ of the
fundamental representation. The mathematical structures which appear in the
calculation match in detail the data of dual A-model D-branes.
