Colloquia

Supersymmetry and tensor categories

Vera Serganova (UC Berkeley)

Location:  Zoom
Date & time: Wednesday, 13 April 2022 at 3:30PM - 4:30PM

Abstract: I will explain how representation theory of supergroups and supergeometry are related to general theory of tensor categories, present old and new results, and open questions in the field.  We discuss analogy between super representation theory and representation theory over the fields of positive characteristic.
