Dear all,
We would like to advertise a reading group on the relations between knot homologies (Khovanov-Rozansky homologies), algebraic geometry and representation theory.
The plan is to follow the survey article by Gorsky-Kivinen-Simental (you can find it attached), based on the Lecture Notes of IHES summer school of 2021, adding some more context and background. The seminars should be accessible to a broad audience without prior knowledge of knot theory or algebraic geometry. The reading group will consist of 2h talks given by the participants.
A preliminary encounter will be held online on Wednesday October 15 at 16:00 (CEST) at the following link:

All the best,
