"The ADHM-Nahm Procedure"

In my last talk, we examined how group actions simplify the Nahm equations.  In this talk, we outline the procedure that generates monopoles from solutions of these equations, the ADHM-Nahm procedure.  Then, using Maple,, we follow this procedure to generate explicit examples of monopoles.

"A variety of schemes"

in this talk we will define  schemes. We will see some examples of schemes that are not affine schemes. Next, we will study properties of  locally ringed spaces and stalks of schemes along with their residue fields. Finally, we will see how to glue schemes and depending on the gluing we can have different types of schemes.
