Geometry of gauge theories in two dimensions

    Joint IFT + ICMAT Colloquium

    Oscar García-Prada (ICMAT-CSIC).

    Abstract: 

    I will describe several geometric aspects of different gauge theories on Riemann surfaces that originate in four-dimensional Yang–Mills theories. A common theme is the appearance of various types of Higgs fields. I will provide some basic mathematical and historical background.

    When: Friday, 12 December 2025 – 12:00
