Description

During the talk, we will introduce brane quantization following Witten and Gaiotto's recent work on Probing Quantization Via Branes. We will then consider its relation with the branes and 3-manifolds we introduced with Baraglia defined via actions of involutions on different moduli spaces, hoping to further our understanding of the relation between Higgs bundles and representations of higher-dimensional manifolds.
