Braid groups and higher representation theory

    Project: Research

    Project Details

    Description

    This project will develop the higher representation theory of braid groups, mapping class groups, and quantum groups. This will connect the fields of low dimensional topology, algebraic geometry, and representation theory, explaining how the categories appearing in each field are examples of higher representations of the same group.
