An operadic structure on supermoduli spaces

03/24/2022 3:17 pm - 5:17 pm

Abstract: The operadic structure on the moduli spaces of algebraic curves  encodes in a combinatorial way how nodal curves in the boundary can be obtained by glueing smooth curves along marked points. In this talk, I will present a generalization of the operadic structure to moduli spaces of SUSY curves (or super Riemann surfaces). This requires colored graphs and generalized operads in the sense of Borisov-Manin. Based joint work with Yu. I. Manin and Y. Wu. https://arxiv.org/abs/2202.10321
