Buckling. Sounds ominous, doesn't it? Think bridges. But buckling can be a positive force and is common in nature. 

Let Marc Suñé explain.

Hurwitz-Brill-Noether Theory via K3 Surfaces

Sohelya Feyzbakhsh
(Imperial College London)
Abstract

I will discuss the Brill-Noether theory of a general elliptic 𝐾3 surface using wall-crossing with respect to Bridgeland stability conditions. As an application, I will provide an example of a general 𝑘-gonal curve from the perspective of Hurwitz-Brill-Noether theory. This is joint work with Gavril Farkas and Andrés Rojas.

Vector fields on intrinsic mirrors

Mark Gross
(Cambridge)
Abstract
Siebert and I gave a general construction of mirror partners to log
Calabi-Yau pairs, we called these mirror partners "intrinsic mirrors". This talk
is about a small part of a larger project with Pomerleano and Siebert aimed
at understanding this construction at a deeper level. I will explain how to
construct vector fields on the mirror using enumerative geometry of the original
log Calabi-Yau pair.
