      Ben Webster: Finite W-algebras as Coulomb branches

      29th August, 2023
      Watch LaterRemove Cinema Mode

      I’ll discuss how we can understand finite W-algebras of type A as Coulomb branches of quiver gauge theories, and the insights this gives us on their representation theory and geometry. If I have time, I may also engage in some irresponsible speculation about the BCD case.

      This video was produced by the International Centre for Mathematical Sciences, as part of the workshop Geometric Representation Theory and W-algebras.
