Watch a mathematical lecture from Harvard CMSA where Professor Peng Shan from Tsinghua University explores the relationship between Skein algebras and quantized Coulomb branches. Discover how to associate a quantized Coulomb branch, as defined by Braverman-Finkelberg-Nakajima, with compact oriented surfaces of genus less than or equal to one. Learn about the comparison between this association and the Kauffman bracket Skein algebra in specific cases. Based on collaborative research with Dylan Allegretti, this hour-long AQFT lecture presents advanced concepts in mathematical physics and topology.
