Indranil Biswas (TIFR, Mumbai) "Vector bundles and connections on Riemann surfaces with projective" structure". (With Jacques Hurtubise and Vladimir Roubtsov.)

Abstract: Let Bg(r) be the moduli space of stable bundles of rank r and degree 0 on a Riemann surface. We construct a T*Bg(r)-torsor Hg(r). It is shown that Hg(r) has a holomorphic symplectic structure compatible with the T*Bg(r)-torsor structure. We also describe Hg(r) in terms of the second order matrix valued differential operators. It is shown that Hg(r) is identified with the T*Bg(r)-torsor given by the sheaf of holomorphic connections on the theta line bundle over Bg(r).

Justine Fasquel (University of Melbourne) "Connecting W-algebras and their representations"

Abstract: W-algebras form a large family of vertex algebras associated to nilpotent orbits of simple Lie algebras. They provide an additional framework to study the representations of certain infinite dimensional Lie algebras. Indeed, W-algebras can be obtained from the latter by applying certain quantized Hamiltonian reductions. It is believed that most of the time the reduction procedure can be reversed to reconstruct the representations of the underling affine Lie algebra.

In this talk, we will discuss inverse reductions as well as their consequences on the representation theory based on examples in small ranks. The talk report on a recent paper with T. Creutzig, A. Linshaw and N. Nakatsuka and on going work with C. Raymond and D. Ridout.

Werner Nahm (IAS Dublin) "A mathematically natural axiom for Quantum Field Theory"

Abstract: Euclidean quantum field theory can be defined as the theory of continuous functors from a category of manifolds to a category of self-dual real vector spaces, with rather obvious monoidal and duality properties. In this approach it is straightforward to define fields and their scaling dimensions and to relate them to deformations of the functor. In a second step the transition to Minkowskian theories and their integrability properties will be discussed.

Vladimir Roubtsov (Université d'Angers) "Higher Bessel functions 1 year later"

Abstract: We revise, upgrade and correct our results reported in Lille Workshop-Mai 2023. We consider the generating function Φ(N) for the reciprocals N-th power of factorials. We show a connection of product formulas for such series with the periods for certain families of algebraic hypersurfaces. We describe the singular loci of these surfaces and show that they are given by zeros of the Buchstaber-Rees polynomials, entering in N-valued group laws. We propose a generalized Frobenius method and use it to obtain special expansions for multiplication kernels in the sense of Kontsevich. Using these expansions we provide some experimental results in order to connect N-Bessel kernels and the hierarchies of the palindromic unimodal polynomials. We study the properties of such polynomials and conjecture positivity of their roots.

The results are based on a joint work with I. Gaiur (Toronto) and D. van Straten (Mainz).



Alessandra Sarti (Université de Poitiers) "Complex Reflection Groups, K3 surfaces and Lehrer-Springer theory"

Abstract: I will talk about a long project in collaboration with Cédric Bonnafé, that relates K3 surfaces and complex reflection groups. This generalizes and explains some results of 2003 by W. Barth and myself. In fact by using complex reflection groups and Lehrer-Springer theory we obtained the following three main results :

1. Classification of some finite groups of maximum order acting on K3 surfaces.

2. Classification of all K3 surfaces that one can obtain as quotient of surfaces in complex projective three space by certain subgroups of finite complex reflection groups of rank four.

3. Description of elliptic fibrations on the previous K3 surfaces. After an overview of the results, I will explain more in detail point 2, in particular I will introduce some Lehrer-Springer theory from the theory of complex reflection groups, which is a fundamental tool to avoid a case-by-case analysis in the classification.



Ronan Terpereau (Université de Lille) "Equivariant vector bundles on Fano varieties"

Abstract: This talk addresses the problem of constructing homogeneous vector bundles, i.e. vector bundles invariant under the action of an algebraic group, in which the algebraic group acts on the base of the bundle with an open orbit. Producing such bundles is generally difficult, but we'll see how instanton bundles, which appeared in the 1970s to explain fundamental forces in physics, offer an approach for constructing them when the base of the bundle is a Fano variety. This is a joint work with Daniele Faenzi.
