DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/MITLie/38/">
 Frobenii on Morava E-theoretical quantum groups</a>\nby Yaping Yang (U. Me
 lbourne) as part of MIT Lie groups seminar\n\nLecture held in 2-142.\n\nAb
 stract\nIn this talk\, I will explain a connection between stable homotopy
  theory and representation theory. I will focus on one application of this
  idea to a problem arising from the modular representation theory. More ex
 plicitly\, we study a family of new quantum groups labelled by a prime num
 ber and a positive integer constructed using the Morava E-theories. Those 
 quantum groups are related to Lusztig's 2015 reformulation of his conjectu
 re from 1979 on character formulas for algebraic groups over a field of po
 sitive characteristic. This talk is based on my joint work with Gufang Zha
 o.\n
