Gaiotto introduced the notion of a conformal limit of a Higgs bundle and conjectured that these should identify the Hitchin component with the Oper stratum in the deRham moduli space. In the case of c...
I will compare work of Formanek on a certain construction of central polynomials with that of Collins on integration on unitary groups. These two quite disjoint topics share the construction of the sa...
To any polarized variety (X,L) is associated a section ring R. I will explain the relation between suitable classes of norms on R and functions on the Berkovich analytification of X. Time permitting, ...
I will try to explain and motivate the notion of Lefschetz (exceptional) collections in derived categories of coherent sheaves and their residual categories and, in particular, its conjectura relation...
Abstract: Anyons are quantum particles with statistics intermediate between bosons and fermions, arising in less than 3 dimensions. There are two possible approaches: one uses multi-valued wave functi...
We make a universal construction of Bruhat-Tits group scheme on wonderful embeddings of adjoint groups in the absolute and relative settings of adjoint Kac-Moody groups. These group schemes have natur...
In the first part of this talk I will give an update on the connection between perfect ideals of codimension 3 and Schubert varieties of exceptional groups (and more generally opposite Schubert variet...
