A polynomial $f$ is said to be a Brieskorn-Pham polynomial if

$ f = x_1^{p_1} + ... + x_n^{p_n}$

for positive integers $p_1,\ldots, p_n$. In the talk, I will discuss my joint work with Masahiro Futaki on the equivalence between triangulated category of matrix factorizations of $f$ graded with a certain abelian group $L$ and the Fukaya-Seidel category of an exact symplectic Lefschetz fibration obtained by Morsifying $f$.
