Lectures on the topological recursion for Higgs bundles and quantum curves
by Olivia Dumitrescu, Motohico Mulase
Publisher: arXiv 2015
Number of pages: 69
Description:
The paper aims at giving an introduction to the notion of quantum curves. The main purpose is to describe the new discovery of the relation between the following two disparate subjects: one is the topological recursion, that has its origin in random matrix theory and has been effectively applied to many enumerative geometry problems; and the other is the quantization of Hitchin spectral curves associated with Higgs bundles.

Introduction to Stokes Structuresby Claude Sabbah - arXiv
The purpose of these lectures is to introduce the notion of a Stokes-perverse sheaf as a receptacle for the Riemann-Hilbert correspondence for holonomic D-modules. They develop the original idea of P. Deligne in dimension one.

Introduction to Algebraic Geometryby Sudhir R. Ghorpade - Indian Institute of Technology Bombay
This text is a brief introduction to algebraic geometry. We will focus mainly on two basic results in algebraic geometry, known as Bezout's Theorem and Hilbert's Nullstellensatz, as generalizations of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra.
