title : Quantum groups and quiver Hecke algebras

abstract:

The quiver Hecke algebras are vast generalizations of affine Hecke algebras in the direction of categorification. They categorify the quantum groups associated with arbitrary Dynkin diagrams. In this talk, I will explain this categorification for quantum groups using quiver Hecke algebras, and present recent results and problems on this area.
