Youtube Seminar

This seminar is based on the fact that on Youtube (and on other streaming services as well) there are talks given by outstanding mathematicans and physicists. The setup of the seminar would be that we watch a talk together and discuss during and after the talk about its content. AS a sidenote the original idea for this seminar arose in a discussion with Erfan Rezaei.

Next talk

  1. Quantization of generalized Kähler manifolds - Marco Gualtieri Youtube
  2. QM and QFT from algebraic and geometric viewpoints 2/4 - Albert SchwarzYoutube

Watched Talks

  1. HyperKähler metrics and symmetries - Andrew Swann (31 May 2024) Youtube
  2. Integrable systems and representation theory: between geometry, algebra and analysis - Nicolai Reshetikhin (7 May 2024) Not Youtube After a short introduction to Hamiltonian systems, some recent(ish) work of R. is presented
  3. QM and QFT from algebraic and geometric viewpoints 1/4 - Albert Schwarz (5 May 2024)Youtube A (new?) geometric framework for quamtum mechanics is introduced. The space of states is promoted as the main object of study
  4. Symplectic geometry of Teichmueller spaces for surfaces with boundary 1/3 - Eckhard Meinrenken Youtube After some motivation the main topic is a coordinate free definition of the Virasoro algebra
  5. The 3d A-model: generalized Seiberg-Witten equations, vortices and monopoles 1 - Justin Hilburn Youtube
  6. Generalized Seiberg-Witten equations 3 - Thomas Walpuski (19 Apr. 2024) Not Youtube Rescaling of the generalised SW leads to Z_2 harmonic spinors. These objects often prevent compactness results.
  7. Generalized Seiberg-Witten equations 2 - Thomas Walpuski (11 Apr. 2024) Youtube: This lectures is devoted to the definition of the generalised SW equation.
  8. Generalized Seiberg-Witten equations 1 - Thomas Walpuski (9 Apr. 2024) Youtube: The lecture was about the mathematical setup for gauge theory. The equations of Yang-Mills (ASD), Seiberg-Witten and Vafa-Witten were introduced as well. Lecture Notes
