The seminar will be based on notes from a course taught by Kotschick and Hamilton at LMU Munich and will feature the following topics:
  • Physical and mathematical motivation of Seiberg–Witten theory;
  • Spinc and Spin structures;
  • Characteristic classes;
  • Results from index theory;
  • Moduli space of solutions of the Seiberg–Witten equations;
  • Examples and applications.

The seminar takes place on Mondays from 14:00 to 15:00 in Room 1643 (Geomatikum), except for sessions in red. These take place in Room 1528 (Geomatikum) at the same time.
