Thesis
Spectral networks, abelianization, and opers
- Abstract:
-
In this thesis we study a number of geometric structures arising in the study of four-dimensional supersymmetric quantum field theories.
We study properties and applications of so-called “spectral networks” on Riemann surfaces C, focusing in particular on the “abelianization map” which we use to produce special coordinate systems on moduli spaces of local systems on C. We generalize the classical Fenchel-Nielsen coordinates and utilize these coordinates to compute superpotentials, f...
