Categorical symmetries in representation theory. This project aims to develop categorical symmetries of central objects in mathematics such as braid groups, the Hilbert scheme of points, and the Virasoro algebra. The concept of symmetry is an important organising principle in science. Representation theory is the field of mathematics concerned with studying symmetries. The problems proposed have connections to many different areas including algebra, geometry, topology, and mathematical physics. ....Categorical symmetries in representation theory.

This project expects to advance pure mathematics and provide potential benefit in many related fields.Read moreRead less
Moduli, invariants, and algebraisation. This project is in pure mathematics. It aims to address gaps in our
knowledge in the modern geometries and their associated algebraic structures that arise in classification problems that pervade mathematics and its applications.
This project expects to generate new knowledge in modern algebra and geometry.
Expected outcomes of this project include major progress in our
understanding of invariants of derived categories of algebraic stacks and the

This project expects to generate new knowledge in modern algebra and geometry.
Expected outcomes of this project include major progress in our
understanding of invariants of derived categories of algebraic stacks and the
relationship between algebraic and other geometries.
The benefit will be to enhance the international stature of Australian science.Read moreRead less
