DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Sergei Gukov\nhosted by Tamas Hausel\nAbstract: While 
 the two parts of the talk are fairly independent\, they both center around
  the same object. What this object is will be revealed in the first\, more
  elementary part of the talk. And\, if the first part aims to answer "What
 ?" question\, the main goal of the second part will be to answer "Why?" qu
 estion\, i.e. explain where this new objects fits in the "big picture"\, d
 escribe its various properties\, etc. In more technical terms\, one byprod
 uct of the first part will be a very gentle introduction into a modern pro
 gram called 3d-3d correspondence\, whereas the second part will connect ca
 tegorification of WRT invariants with Ramanujan's mock modular forms\, the
  equivariant character of Hitchin moduli space\, the affine Grassmannian\,
  and other problems in algebraic geometry.The talk is based on several pap
 ers with D.Pei and/or P.Putrov\, C.Vafa\, as well as ongoing work with C.M
 anolescu.
