Speaker: Vasily Krylov (Harvard University)

I will introduce Coulomb branches associated to a pair of a reductive group G and its complex representation N. We will discuss their main geometric properties and examine explicit examples. I will also highlight the connection to the moduli space of monopoles. Time permitting, we will see how KLRW naturally arise in this context.
