Open Gromov-Witten Invariants in Genus Zero

Learn about open Gromov-Witten invariants in a mathematics seminar talk that explores curve counting invariants and their challenges in symplectic geometry. Delve into Solomon-Tukachinsky's framework for addressing boundary issues in moduli spaces through the construction of weakly curved A_infty algebra. Examine how this framework can be expanded to handle general Lagrangian cases using global Kuranishi chart construction for open stable maps moduli spaces. Discover the relationship between these invariants and Lagrangian cobordisms, with potential insights into higher genus results. Follow along as the speaker presents joint work with Kai Hugtenburg, addressing fundamental mathematical concepts in topology and geometric analysis.
