Geometric representation theory · CNRS

Lucien
Hennecart.

I am a CNRS researcher (chargé de recherche) at LAMFA, Université de Picardie Jules Verne, in Amiens, France.

My work lies at the intersection of algebraic geometry and representation theory, with an emphasis on cohomological Hall algebras, BPS Lie algebras, moduli spaces and Calabi–Yau categories.

Research interests

Connecting geometry and algebra

Research overview →

01 / Hall algebras

Cohomological Hall algebras

Algebraic structures built from moduli stacks, their filtrations and cohomological integrality theorems.

02 / BPS invariants

BPS Lie algebras

BPS cohomology, generalized Kac–Moody structures and representations arising from 2-Calabi–Yau categories.

03 / Moduli geometry

Nonabelian Hodge theory

Moduli stacks of Higgs bundles and local systems, cohomology and comparisons across nonabelian Hodge theory.

04 / Quiver representations

Quivers and counting

Quiver varieties, perverse sheaves, Kac polynomials and geometric constructions in representation theory.
