 Laura Fredrickson (University of Oregon) as part of Quantum Mathematics an
 d Physics\n\n\nAbstract\nFour-dimensional complete hyperkaehler manifolds 
 can be classified into ALE\, ALF\, ALG\, ALG*\, ALH\, ALH* families. It ha
 s been conjectured that every ALG or ALG* hyperkaehler metric can be reali
 zed as a 4d Hitchin moduli space. I will describe ongoing work with Rafe M
 azzeo\, Jan Swoboda\, and Hartmut Weiss to prove a special case of the con
 jecture\, and some consequences. The hyperkaehler metrics on Hitchin modul
 i spaces are of independent interest\, as the physicists Gaiotto–Moore
 –Neitzke give an intricate conjectural description of their asymptotic g
 eometry.\n\nThe Zoom Meeting Room opens at 10:45am. The meeting is passcod
 e protected. The passcode is the pseudo-TeX-like form of the standard symp
 lectic form of the oriented xy-plane\, using ^ in place of wedge. Thus it 
 consists of 7 characters starting from $.\n

 cdavis/4/">Racks and Quantum Invariants</a>\nby Jenifer Brown (UC Davis) a
 s part of Quantum Mathematics and Physics\n\n\nAbstract\nDrawing on the qu
 arter's theme of inspiration from physics\, I will talk about my work on a
 dapting racks to quantum knot invariants.\n\nRacks are an algebraic embodi
 ment of the second two Reidemeister moves. I will start with a gentle intr
 oduction to racks\, then show how they model the colored tangle diagrams u
 biquitous in quantum topology. Time permitting\, I will talk about my own 
 motivations for pursuing this line of thought\, which have to do with the 
 conjectured relationship between character varieties and quantum invariant
 s.\n\nThe Zoom Meeting Room opens at 10:45am. The meeting is passcode prot
 ected. The passcode is the pseudo-TeX-like form of the standard symplectic
  form of the oriented xy-plane\, using ^ in place of wedge. Thus it consis
 ts of 7 characters starting from $.\n
