DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Nikita Nikolaev\nhosted by Tamas Hausel\nAbstract: I w
 ill describe an approach to studying meromorphic connections on vector bun
 dles called abelianisation. This technique has its origins in the works of
  Fock-Goncharov (2006) and Gaiotto-Moore-Neitzke (2013)\, as well as the W
 KB analysis. Its essence is to put rank-n connections on a complex curve X
  in correspondence with much simpler objects: connections on line bundles 
 over an n-fold cover  Σ  -> X. The point of view is similar in spirit to
  abelianisation of Higgs bundles\, aka the spectral correspondence: Higgs 
 bundles on X are put in correspondence with rank-one Higgs line bundles on
  a spectral cover  Σ  -> X. However\, unlike Higgs bundles\, abelianisat
 ion of connections requires the introduction of a new object\, which we ca
 ll the Voros cocycle. The Voros cocycle is a cohomological way to encode o
 bjects such as ideal triangulations that appeared in Fock-Goncharov\, spec
 tral networks that appeared in Gaiotto-Moore-Neitzke\, as well as the conn
 ection matrices appearing in the WKB analysis. By focusing our attention o
 n the simplest case of logarithmic singularities with generic residues\, I
  will describe an equivalence of categories\, which I call the abelianisat
 ion functor\, between sl(2)-connections on X satisfying a certain transver
 sality condition and rank-one connections on an appropriate 2-fold spectra
 l cover   Σ  -> X. This presentation is based on the work completed in 
 my thesis (2018) and recent extensions thereof.
