Title: Towards modular functor in higher Teichmüller theory
Abstract: A modular functor is a collection of representations of mapping class groups of surfaces, which respects cutting and gluing. I will attempt to describe a modular functor like construction in higher Teichmüller theory, explain the motivation, and highlight main differences with the known constructions.
