Quivers
and Calabi-Yau singularities

Abstract
We give an overview of the
relation between singularities of Calabi-Yau three-folds and quiver gauge
theories. A special case is the McKay correspondence between the
representations of quivers and coherent sheaves on the resolution of orbifold
singularities.
