Instantons on Gravitational Instantons Reading Group 2022.

This is a page of information about the reading group Instantons on gravitational instantons, focussing on the ALE case initially.

The resources that we will read and other potentially useful references are linked at the bottom of this page. To start with we will follow the paper Yang-Mills instantons on ALE gravitational instantons and may branch out to other sources after that.

We will meet between 14:00 and 15:30 in room 416 (at least initially) .
