String-Math 2011 (Proceedings of Symposia in Pure Mathematics, 85, Band 85) - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

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.
