Title: Transfer matrix and quasimaps with defects

Abstract:

Abstract: I will talk about a (at least partial) realization of the transfer matrix in terms of the enumerative geometry of Grassmannians. To do this I will use the moduli space of quasimaps with defects and will build on techniques used to obtain the Baxter operator as an operator of quantum multiplication by tautological classes.
