Equivariant topology and symplectic geometry
EF 2019-20
Résumé
I work in the fields of geometry and topology. The kinds of questions I am interested are loosely motivated by mathematical physics. My current program is to study the topological and geometric properties of a class of moduli spaces associated to a real algebraic curve. These moduli spaces embed as Lagrangian submanifolds of the moduli space of stable vector bundles over a complex curve and provide a rich source of examples for Lagrangian Floer theory and are likely to have applications in three dimensional topological quantum field theory.**
