 3/">ALG Gravitational Instantons and Hitchin Moduli Spaces</a>\nby Laura F
 redrickson (University of Oregon) as part of Quantum Mathematics and Physi
 cs\n\n\nAbstract\nFour-dimensional complete hyperkaehler manifolds can be 
 classified into ALE\, ALF\, ALG\, ALG*\, ALH\, ALH* families. It has been 
 conjectured that every ALG or ALG* hyperkaehler metric can be realized as 
 a 4d Hitchin moduli space. I will describe ongoing work with Rafe Mazzeo\,
  Jan Swoboda\, and Hartmut Weiss to prove a special case of the conjecture
 \, and some consequences. The hyperkaehler metrics on Hitchin moduli space
 s are of independent interest\, as the physicists Gaiotto–Moore–Neitzk
 e give an intricate conjectural description of their asymptotic geometry.\
 n\nThe Zoom Meeting Room opens at 10:45am. The meeting is passcode protect
 ed. The passcode is the pseudo-TeX-like form of the standard symplectic fo
 rm of the oriented xy-plane\, using ^ in place of wedge. Thus it consists 
 of 7 characters starting from $.\n

 4/">Racks and Quantum Invariants</a>\nby Jenifer Brown (UC Davis) as part 
 of Quantum Mathematics and Physics\n\n\nAbstract\nDrawing on the quarter's
  theme of inspiration from physics\, I will talk about my work on adapting
  racks to quantum knot invariants.\n\nRacks are an algebraic embodiment of
  the second two Reidemeister moves. I will start with a gentle introductio
 n to racks\, then show how they model the colored tangle diagrams ubiquito
 us in quantum topology. Time permitting\, I will talk about my own motivat
 ions for pursuing this line of thought\, which have to do with the conject
 ured relationship between character varieties and quantum invariants.\n\nT
