Workshop on Higgs bundles and their relations to Langlands program
Date: 8th-9th October 2015
Place: room 403, IMPAN, ul. Śniadeckich 8, Warsaw, Poland.
Description of the workshop:
The mini-course will be given by Adrian Langer on Higgs bundles and their moduli space with connections to Langlands program:
Lecture 1
Local systems, flat bundles, Higgs bundles
Simpson's correspondence (non-abelian Hodge theory)
Examples and applications: Rank 1 case and relation to generic vanishing theorems
Lecture 2
Moduli spaces of representations of the fundamental group and hyperk\"ahler structure
Multiplicative group action and complex variation of the Hodge structure
Hitchin's fibration
Examples and applications: rigidity results for representations of the fundamental group
Lecture 3
Spectral covers and generic fibres of Hitchin's fibration
Langlands duality as mirror symmetry (after Hausel-Thaddeus)
Geometric Langlands conjecture
There will be also a talk by Piotr Achinger on Hitchin's fibration and P=W conjecture and a talk by Przemyslaw Chojecki on geometric interpretation of fundamental lemma.
The workshop is organized as a part of IMPANGA.
