In mathematics, the affine Grassmannian of an algebraic group G over a field k is an ind-scheme—a colimit of finite-dimensional schemes—which can be thought of as a flag variety for the loop group G(k((t))) and which describes the representation theory of the Langlands dual group LG through what is known as the geometric Satake correspondence. (Wikipedia).
Timo Richarz: Basics on Affine Grassmanianns
The aim is to give an introduction to the basic theory of affine Grassmannians and affine flag varieties. We put special emphasis on the utility of dynamic methods in sense of Drinfeld [D], and the utility of non-constant group schemes. We plan to adress the following aspects: • Affine Gra

How to Integrate over Grassmann Numbers in Quantum Field Theory? (Berezin Integral)
In this video, we will show you how to do integrals with Grassmann numbers. Grassmann numbers are an important concept in quantum field theory, where we use them to describe fermions. They are named after the German mathematician Hermann Grassmann. The special thing about Grassmann numbers

Joel Kamnitzer: Symplectic duality and (generalized) affine Grassmannian slices
Abstract: Under the geometric Satake equivalence, slices in the affine Grassmannian give a geometric incarnation of dominant weight spaces in representations of reductive groups. These affine Grassmannian slices are quantized by algebras known as truncated shifted Yangians. From this persp
