Riassunto

Bringing together work from the fields of mathematical physics, algebraic geometry, algebraic topology, symplectic geometry, and representation theory, 14 refereed papers from the May 2001 symposium are presented. Specific topics include algebraic orbifold quantum products; orbifold Gromov-Witten theory; orbifold elliptic genus; open-string Gromov-Witten invariants; orbifold quantum cohomology of the classifying space of a finite group; orbifold Frobenius algebras, cobordisms, and monodromies; loop groupoids, gerbes, and twisted sectors on orbifolds; Hilbert schemes and symmetric products; stringy orbifolds; discrete torsion, quotient stacks, and string orbifolds; and framed knots at large N .
