Identification of the Configuration Space Kähler Function
TL;DR: In this paper, a generalization of Einstein's geometrization program of physics to an infinitedimensional context is discussed, which is based on the notion of the world of classical worlds (WCW) and the concept of the Kahler action.
$$k$$-Double Schur functions and equivariant (co)homology of the affine Grassmannian
Thomas Lam,Mark Shimozono +1 more
TL;DR: The Schubert bases of the torus-equivariant homology and cohomology rings of the affine Grassmannian are realized by new families of symmetric functions called double Schur functions.
Compactifications of reductive groups as moduli stacks of bundles
Johan Martens,Michael Thaddeus +1 more
Abstract: Let G be a split reductive group. We introduce the moduli problem of "bundle chains" parametrizing framed principal G-bundles on chains of lines. Any fan supported in a Weyl chamber determines a stability condition on bundle chains. Its moduli stack provides an equivariant toroidal compactification of G. All toric orbifolds may be thus obtained. Moreover, we get a canonical compactification of any semisimple G, which agrees with the wonderful compactification in the adjoint case, but which in other cases is an orbifold. Finally, we describe the connections with Losev-Manin's spaces of weighted pointed curves and with Kausz's compactification of GL(n).
Categorified Quantum sl(2) and Equivariant Cohomology of Iterated Flag Varieties
TL;DR: In this article, a 2-category representation of Lusztig's integral version of quantum sl(2) was constructed for each positive integer N using the equivariant cohomology of iterated flag varieties.

Demazure character formula for semi-infinite flag varieties
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that every Schubert variety of a semi-infinite flag variety is projectively normal, i.e., it can be interpreted as the (dual) space of global sections of a line bundle.
