AbstractThe notion of representations of Lie algebras on categories ("2-representations") has proven useful in representation theory. I will discuss joint work with Andrew Manion for the case of the super Lie algebra gl(1|1). A motivation is the reconstruction of Heegaard-Floer theory, a 4-dimensional topological field theory, and its extension down to dimension 1.About the speakerRaphaël Alexi...
