"Rank-2 odd degree moduli spaces of co-Higgs bundles"
This talk will be a continuation of my previous talk, we are going to show how the smooth moduli space of rank-2, odd-degree co-Higgs bundles can be interpreted as a kind of universal elliptic curve.

"Higgs Bundles"
Last week, Robert introduced the notion of Higgs bundle over Riemann surfaces. In this talk, I will provide some background on Higgs bundles and explain how they are related to the Yang-Mills equations and the cotangent bundle of the moduli space of stable bundles. I will also discuss how Higgs bundles can be generalized to higher-dimensional complex manifolds.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is centralized within our Office of Indigenous Relations.
