Log stable maps and Morse theory of toric varieties
William (Danny) Gillam
(Bogazici University Turkey)
Abstract
We will discuss a result to the effect that the moduli space of log stable maps to a toric variety X is "the same" as the Morse-theoretic moduli space of broken gradient flow lines in the "differentiable realization" Y of the fan for X. This is joint work with Sam Molcho.
