Abstract:
I'll talk about some things I proved 20 years ago which I understand better now, and some things Drinfeld proved 40 years ago which I still do not understand. This talk is based on my joint work with Slava Ivanov (see arXiv:2512.04253 for more sensible abstract). Our work was based in part on another recent paper by Song and Wang (see arXiv:2406.13172).
