Anton Kapustin, yesterday, in the middle of what he called (not seriously) “the scary statement” of the Geometric Langlands duality….
Part of the audience, receiving the news….

Alas, my knowledge of catergory theory is still somewhat lacking. Something that will hopefully change in the near future…
You mean like “Oh dear, it’s starting to rain…I really should sheafify my copy of “D-branes” before leaving home” ?

I am especially looking forward to the day when I use “sheafify” in a sentence.

Depends upon your familiarity with sheaves, D-modules, derived categories and the like…. After an hour of telling us about the more familiar physics on the gauge theory side, I think he was a bit worried (correctly) that the audience was going to get a bit shell-shocked by the mathematical side of things…..
He held us by the hand and helped us a long a bit….

You’re making me curious…what’s so scary about it?
