Workshop — The Geometry, Algebra, and Physics of Higgs Bundles

The workshop will tackle four of the main directions in which Higgs bundles have recently taken a leading role within the mathematics and physics communities, following the breakthroughs of the last years. Bringing together leaders in the area both in mathematics and physics, as well as young researchers in the subfields of the workshop, the meeting will present the ideal setting for novel discoveries and understanding of the uses that Higgs bundles and Hitchin systems may have.
