Focus Week on New Invariants and Wall Crossing
This one-week workshop will focus on new invariants associated to Calabi-Yau 3-folds including the Donaldson-Thomas invariants, their wall crossing phenomena, their relations to topological string theory, the dimer model and tropical geometry. The workshop will gather leading mathematicians and physicists working on diverse issues in this area.
