Title

:

The strange duality conjecture for generic curves
Abstract :
For X a compact Riemann surface of positive genus, the
strange duality conjecture predicts that the space of sections of
certain theta bundle on moduli of bundles of rank r and level k is
naturally dual to a similar space of sections of rank k and level r. I
will outline a proof of this conjecture for X generic in the moduli
space of curves of a given genus.
