Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A duality between gauge theories and W-algebras was found by physicists Alday-Gaiotto-Tachikawa. We understand it as a mathematically rigorous statement that the equivariant cohomology group of a framed moduli space of instantons has a structure of a representation of a W-algebra, and various cohomology classes are described as vertex operators of the W-algebra. We study several results in this direction. In particular, jointly with Braverman-Finkelberg, we prove that the equivariant intersection cohomology group of a framed moduli space of instantons (more precisely its Uhlenbeck partial compactification) has an expected structure of a representation.
