Integrable lattice models and symmetric functions, part 1 Abstract: I will talk about how integrable lattice models from statistical mechanics unexpectedly became about the most powerful tool to study symmetric functions from representation theory and combinatorics of affine flag varieties. The talk … Read more

Title: Perverse sheaves and resurgence. Abstract: Perverse sheaves provide a topological counterpart of regular holonomic D-modules, whose solutions are multivalued functions of certain restricted type. Now, much more general multivalued functions (on the complex plane C) have been studied in J. … Read more

Curved Fukaya algebras and the Dubrovin spectrum Abstract: The cohomology ring of a compact symplectic manifold can be deformed by counting pseudo-holomorphic spheres. Fukaya-Oh-Ohta-Ono developed an obstruction theory that explains when Lagrangian submanifolds yield modules over such deformation, based on … Read more
