课程描述 DescriptionThe Teichmüller space of a surface is a fundamental construction in low-dimensional geometry and topology. It is a space parametrizing hyperbolic structures on the surface up to isotopy. The goal of quantum Teichmüller is to construct a quantum deformation of the algebra of functions on the classical Teichmüller space. This course will give an introduction to these ideas and...
Abstract: Non-abelian Hodge theory relates representations of the fundamental group of a compact Riemann surface X into a Lie group G with holomorphic objects on X known as Higgs bundles, introduced by Hitchin more than 35 years ago. Starting with the case in which G is the circle, and the 19th century Abel-Jacobi's theory, we will move to the case of G=SL(2,R) and the relation to Teichmüller t...
