Title: A geometric R-matrix for a general surface
Speaker: Noah Arbesfeld (Columbia University)
Abstract: Generalizing work of Maulik and Okounkov, we produce a solution to the Yang-Baxter equation from the Hilbert scheme of points on a general surface using an intertwiner of certain highest weight Virasoro modules. We also explain how to modify this construction to produce formulas for multiplication by Chern classes of tautological bundles on the Hilbert scheme.
