MSI Colloquium
Generalized Hodge structures and mirror symmetry
Tony Pantev, U of Pennsylvania
John Dedman Mathematical Sciences Building, Seminar Room G35
Abstract
I will discuss some novel Hodge theoretic invariants of symplectic manifolds that can also be computed from the mirror symmetric Landau-Ginzburg models. I will describe the structure of the invariants and the way they fit in a general framework for non-commutative geometry. If time permits I will discuss the relationship to topological quantum field theory and enumerative geometry.
New Arrivals
