Coulomb branches are certain moduli spaces arising in supersymmetric field theory. They include as special cases many spaces of independent interest in geometry and representation theory. In the four-dimensional case, their coordinate rings can be categorified (lifted) to tensor categories that carry a lot of structure. In these talks we will define and explore the structure of such...
