The Mathematical Physics Seminar will explore various topics under the umbrella of Poisson geometry, quantum mechanics, and the geometry of classical and quantum fields. This seminar is organized by Markus Pflaum and Sheagan John.

Algebraic Quantum Field Theories are formulated by giving axioms on a C*-algebra valued cosheaf on the open subsets of Minkowski space. This dependence on an a priori specified spacetime is the subject of debate. Here we begin investigations into one possibility for removing this dependence. The fundamental idea is to attempt to derive a spatial locale equivalent to the open sets on Minkowski space from families of observables. In this talk, we outline the basic structures and describe some initial steps towards realizing this program.

Symplectic singularities, introduced by Beauville, appear in various aspects of representation theory. Additionally, symplectic singularities arise in the context of quantum field theory, particularly in the Higgs and Coulomb branches of three-dimensional theories, as well as in the Higgs branches of four-dimensional theories. Furthermore, the 4D/2D duality proposed by Beem et al. identifies vertex algebras as invariants for superconformal four-dimensional theories. It has been suggested that the Higgs branch of four-dimensional theories can be reconstructed as the associated variety of vertex algebras. As a result, all vertex algebras arising from four-dimensional theories are believed to be chiral quantizations of symplectic singularities. In this lecture, we will discuss such vertex algebras and their representation theory.
