Riassunto

The historical interaction and cross-fertilization of mathematics is constant and intense, and this situation has become deeper and stronger in the course of the development of string theory. These papers, prepared as lectures for the research conference in June 2004, cover most of the issues in the partnership between mathematicians and physicists to get this one right. Their topics include branes and stability, geometric transitions, non-Kahler geometries and string vacua, the K-theory of smooth DM stacks, Gromov-Witten, Gopakumar-Vafa and Donaldson-thomas invariants of Calabi-Yau threefolds, flux compactification geometries and de Sitter vacua in M-theory, N=4 super Yang-mills-theory and integrable spin chains, Yang-Mills amplitures from twistor string theory, and notes on correlation functions in (0,2) theories.
