| PLEASE NOTE THE CHANGE OF TIME FOR THIS WEEK: 13.30 instead of 12. In the first of two talks, I will simultaneously introduce the notion of a co-Higgs vector bundle and the notion of the spectral curve associated to a compact Riemann surface equipped with a vector bundle and some extra data. I will try to put these ideas into both a historical context and a contemporary one. As we delve deeper, the emphasis will be on using spectral curves to better understand a particular moduli space. | |||
