The constraining power of Coulomb Branch Geometry: lectures on Seiberg-Witten theory

Abstract

The constraining mathematical structure of the Coulomb branch of four dimensional N=2 supersymmetric theories is discussed. The presentation follows a somewhat different route from other excellent reviews on the subject and it is geared towards using this tool to classify four dimensional N=2 superconformal field theories. This is the writeup of the lectures given at the Winter School "YRISW 2020" to appear in a special issue of JPhysA.
