Representation Theory Under the Influence of Quantum Field Theory

The SLMath program on Representation Theory Under the Influence of Quantum Field Theory explores the interactions between representation theory and quantum field theory, focusing on higher quantization and mirror symmetry and their impact on algebra, geometry, physics, and number theory. It gathers experts and young researchers to develop and disseminate a unified view of these developments. The program discusses dualities, mirror symmetry, and connections to geometric and symplectic structures, with a particular emphasis on how gauge theories inform representation-theoretic questions.
