Chiralization of integrable systems

Given a symplectic variety X, one can define its chiral quantization — a sheaf of vertex algebras, which deforms the jet bundle of X. The study of such structures is motivated by mathematical physics. Classification, or even construction, of chiral quantizations is a hard problem, with a lot of recent progress. In this talk, we address this problem in the case when X is a smooth completely integrable system. We use the method of formal geometry (as applied by Fedosov and Bezrukavnikov—Kaledin in the study of ordinary quantizations) to construct chiral quantizations in this case. Then we discuss the possibility of chiralizing the BFN Coulomb branches using this technique
