Deformations of generalized Kähler structures
Speaker:
Marco Gualtieri, University of Toronto
Date and Time:
Thursday, September 21, 2017 - 11:10am to 1:00pm
Location:
Fields Institute, Room 210
Abstract:
I will explain Hitchin's deformation of Poisson structures and how it can be used to deform generalized Kahler structures. A key aspect of the presentation will be the role of Dirac structures and their partially-defined sum operation.
