Abstract:

Classical harmonic analysis is concerned with the description of function spaces by exploiting underlying symmetries. In recent years an algebraic avatar of harmonic analysis has emerged, in which functions are replaced by the systems of linear PDEs they obey. I will survey this theory and some of its applications to representation theory, integrable systems and topological field theory (following joint work with David Nadler and Sam Gunningham).
