Abstract:Quiver possesses a rich representation theory. On the one hand, it exhibits a deep connection between instantons and coherent sheaves as illuminated by the ADHM construction and the works of many others. On the other hand, quivers also capture the formal deformation space of a Lagrangian submanifold. In this talk, we will discuss these relations more explicitly from the perspective of...
Abstract:The quantum difference equation (qde) is the $q$-difference equation which is proposed by Okounkov and Smirnov to encode the $K$-theoretic twisted quasimap counting for the Nakajima quiver varieties. Its construction relies on the K-theoretic stable envelope and it is conjectured that the construction is related to the quantum affine algebra of the corresponding quiver type.In this ta...
