Title:
GENERALIZED CLUSTER STRUCTURES AND PERIODIC DIFFERENCE OPERATORS

Speaker:
Michael Gekhtman

Abstract:
I will present a construction that ties together of several diverse notions including spaces of periodic difference operators, Poisson sub manifolds of a Drinfeld double of GL(n) and subsets of Grassmannians stable under the action of powers of a cyclic shift. The theory of generalized cluster algebras serves as a unifying theme. Time permitting, I will discuss potential applica- tions to representation theory of quantum affine algebras at roots of unity.Based on a joint work with M. Shapiro and A. Vainshtein and an ongoing project with C. Fraser and K. Trampel.
