This workshop will bring together theoretical physicists, representation theorists, algebraic geometers and symplectic geometers interested the connections between quantum field theory and geometric representation theory. The main topics to be discussed are mathematical aspects of 2d, 3d and 4d supersymmetric field theories, such as: topological twists and the resulting Higgs and Coulomb branches, relations to quantization and categorification, representations of vertex operator algebras, connections to enumerative geometry and quantum K-theory and elliptic cohomology, relations to knot homology and, finally, connections to the (relative) geometric Langlands program.
