Abstract:
The aim of these lectures is to provide a gentle introduction to the Gaiotto-Moore-Neitzke construction of the metric on the Hitchin moduli spaces. I will review the BPS spectral problem in N=2 field theories, Hitchin systems and the GMN coordinates. If time permits I will also discuss some extended operators.
