SUMMARY:Groups, Groupoids, Stacks and Representation Theory 
LOCATION:Hill 705
DESCRIPTION:Let G be a group and k some field. A representation of the group G over the
  field k is usually defined as a vector space V over k equipped with a line
 ar action of the group G. One of important problems in Representation Theor
 y is the study of the category Rep(G) of such representations.\nIn my talk 
 I will explain that there is another natural way to describe this category,
  namely, it can be described as a category of sheaves on some "geometric" o
 bject - the basic groupoid BG of the group G.\nI will explain that this mor
 e sophisticated categorical description is the more "correct" one. For exam
 ple, this new description gives a more adequate description of the category
  Rep(G) in cases when we have additional structures (algebraic groups, some
  extra symmetries and so on).\nI will show that in many cases the category 
 Rep(G) has a natural extension - the category M(G) - that has better behavi
 or.\nMy talk will partially follow my paper in arXiv:1410.0435.\n
