The first in a new annual series of conferences exploring the interface of mathematics and string theory was held in Philadelphia in June 2011, and the 29 plenary and contributed papers here are the proceedings of that gathering. Among the topics are elusive worldsheet instantons in heterotic string compactifications, the Witten equation and the geometry of the Landau-Ginzburg model, algebraic topological string theory, the fibrancy of symplectic homology in cotangent bundles, and the theory of higher rank stable pairs and virtual localization.

Hardback. Condizione: New. The nature of interactions between mathematicians and physicists has been thoroughly transformed in recent years. String theory and quantum field theory have contributed a series of profound ideas that gave rise to entirely new mathematical fields and revitalized older ones. The influence flows in both directions, with mathematical techniques and ideas contributing crucially to major advances in string theory. A large and rapidly growing number of both mathematicians and physicists are working at the string-theoretic interface between the two academic fields. The String-Math conference series aims to bring together leading mathematicians and mathematically minded physicists working in this interface. This volume contains the proceedings of the inaugural conference in this series, String-Math 2011, which was held June 6-11, 2011, at the University of Pennsylvania. Codice articolo LU-9780821872956
