Title:

Opers--what they are and what they are good for

Abstract

I will introduce the space of (q-)opers on a projective line for a simple simply-conncted Lie group G. I will explain how this space is related to previously known results in geometry, physics, and integrable systems.

About the speaker

Peter Koroteev

UC Berkeley

I am a Lecturer at Department of Mathematics, University of California, Berkeley. My current research is focused on the interaction between enumerative algebraic geometry, geometric representation theory and integrable systems. In general I work on physical mathematics which nowadays represents a large part of modern math. A significant amount of problems that are studied by mathematicians comes from string/gauge theory.
