Jason Lotay's first lecture on hyperbolic space went down very well, even allowing for YouTube joining the crowd and now counting views from the moment videos appear on your feed, even if you recoil in horror at the sight of them. So here's lecture two: youtu.be/OQ0RTmPUNQ4

An absolute pleasure to be the final speaker at a workshop on Gauge Theory, Topology, and Physics, part of a thematic program @OISTedu. Great audience for my talk on the heterotic SU(3) moduli space, based on work with @HenriqueSaEarp, @jakob_media + others, in a wonderful place.
