“Introduction to Lie groupoids and Lie algebroids”

In this talk, we give an introduction to Lie groupoids and Lie algebroids aimed at graduate students. Topics include: the tangent algebroid and its integrations, Poisson manifolds and symplectic groupoids, the Atiyah algebroid and gauge groupoids, the general linear groupoid, representations and actions of Lie algebroids and groupoids.
