Program:

C. Vafa has proposed a 4-supercharge supersymmetric "microscopic" model of the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) from M-theory considerations. The main idea is that, with extended supersymmetry in the game, we have several techniques at our disposal: hyperKahler geometry, isomonodromic deformations, triangle and cluster categories, mirror symmetry, integrable and Hitchin systems, etc. which may be of use to understand the PHENOMENOLOGY of FQHE. In the course, we shall discuss a small part of this vast program.
