Lecture(s) on Localization

I will review the localization technique and talk about its application to
geometry. Specifically, we will start from a discussion of (hyper)Kähler
manifolds and (hyper)Kähler quotients. We will specialize to hyperkähler
cones, whose bases are tri-Sasaki-Einstein manifolds. We will then see how
localization can be used to greatly simplify the task of computing the
volumes of these base manifolds. [arXiv:1702.05486]
