"The Many Faces of Monopoles"
In this talk, we introduce the four ways of looking at monopoles: solutions of the Bogomolny equations, Nahm data, spectral curves, and rational maps. We then discuss the relationships between these equivalent descriptions and some of the advantages and disadvantages of using them.

We will continue our discussion about monoids presented by generators and relations. What comes next is to look at the notion of normal form for an element in such a monoid, and at how normal forms can be used to prove the cancellativity property.
