DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/BUGeom/28/">
 Branes\, Groupoids\, and Quantization</a>\nby Marco Gualtieri (University 
 of Toronto) as part of Boston University Geometry/Physics Seminar\n\nLectu
 re held in Zoom meeting ID: 953 4652 9200.\n\nAbstract\nIn the past few ye
 ars\, new light has been shed on the notion of\ngeneralized Kahler geometr
 y\, by using ideas from the Weinstein school\nof Poisson geometry. We now 
 understand that the generalized Kahler\nmetric may be viewed as an imagina
 ry Lagrangian submanifold in a\nholomorphic symplectic groupoid which enco
 des the pair of holomorphic\nPoisson structures underlying the generalized
  Kahler structure.\nAfter explaining how this mechanism works\, I will sho
 w how it leads to\na method for quantizing certain holomorphic Poisson str
 uctures in a\nfashion similar to that used in the work of Gukov and Witten
  on\ngeometric quantization.  This is an ongoing joint work with Francis\n
 Bischoff.\n
