AS Conference 2025 Parallel Sessions:Shifted symplectic geometry and categorification

2025/07/02 (Wed.) 15:30~16:30
  • Date : 2025/07/02 (Wed.) 15:30~16:30
  • Location : Auditorium, 6 Floor, Institute of Mathematics (NTU Campus)
  • Speaker : Adeel Khan (AS)
  • Website : https://asconference2025.dia.as.edu.tw/
  • Abstract : Two important players in enumerative geometry and mirror symmetry are the Fukaya categories of symplectic manifolds and the Donaldson-Thomas invariants of algebraic Calabi-Yau threefolds. I will give an introduction to these stories, and explain in what sense the latter can be regarded as a "shift" of the former. More generally, I will speculate on the existence of natural invariants of "n-shifted" symplectic spaces that live in category level n+1.
