The following "Beijing-Novosibirsk seminar on geometry and mathematical physics" will take place on April 15

The Mathematical center in Akademgorodok invites you to take part in the  on April 15 at 11 am Novosibirsk time (UTC+7). Pay attention: the time is different from the usual one. 
The seminar's heads: A. E. Mironov, I. A. Taimanov, Huijun Fan, Youjin Zhang.

During the seminar Professor Umut Varolgunes (Stanford University) will present his talk "Homological mirror symmetry for chain type polynomials".

I will start by explaining Takahashi's homological mirror symmetry (HMS) conjecture regarding invertible polynomials, which is an open string interpretation of Berglund-Hubsch-Henningson mirror symmetry. In joint work with A. Polishchuk, we resolve this HMS conjecture in the chain type case up to rigorous proofs of general statements about Fukaya-Seidel categories. Our proof goes by showing that the categories in both sides are obtained from the category Vect(k) by applying a recursion. I will explain this recursion categorically and sketch the argument for why it is satisfied on the A-side assuming the aforementioned foundational results. If time permits, I will also mention what goes into the proof in the B-side.

To take part, please, on April 15 after 10:45 am Novosibirsk time (UTC+7) connect to the Zoom conference via this link: .
