Topology, Algebraic Geometry, and Dynamics Seminar (TADS): Studying the moduli space of Higgs bundles using topological recursion

Speaker:  Christopher Mahadeo, University of Illinois at Chicago

Title:  Studying the moduli space of Higgs bundles using topological recursion

Abstract:   Topological recursion has been shown to have an intimate relationship with Higgs bundles.  I will discuss some already explored connections between them, and how some new work in topological recursion could reveal more about the hyperkahler metric on the moduli space of Higgs bundles.
