Joint ICMAT-IFT Colloquium - Geometry of gauge theories in two dimensions

Speaker:  Oscar García-Prada (ICMAT-CSIC)
Date:  Friday, 12 December 2025 - 12:00
Place:  Aula Azul, ICMAT

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.
