Introduction to Quiver Varieties

Student-Run Geometry/Topology Seminar

Speaker: Lang Mou, UC Davis
Location: ??? MSB
Start time: Fri, Feb 3 2017, 1:10PM

I will introduce the notion of quivers and their representations. Quiver varieties are certain algebraic varieties constructed from moduli spaces of quiver representations. I will talk about some examples and explain why these geometric objects help us understand the representation theory of quivers.
