Abstract:
The Moore-Tachikawa conjecture posits the existence of a TQFT with values in a certain category of holomorphic symplectic varieties. I will contextualize and describe an alteration of this conjecture based on Grothendieck-Springer resolutions, and provide a solution thereof. This represents joint work with Maxence Mayrand.
