SUMMARY:Motivic decomposition of moduli space from brane dynamics
DESCRIPTION:Algebraic Geometry in String Theory Seminar \n\n\nPre-talk Speaker: Kai Xu (CMSA): 10:00-10:30 am \n\nSpeaker: Kai Xu (CMSA) \nTitle: Motivic decomposition of moduli space from brane dynamics \nAbstract: Supersymmetric gauge theories encode deep structures in algebraic geometry\, and geometric engineering gives a powerful way to understand the underlying structures by string/M theory. In this talk we will see how the dynamics of M5 branes tell us about the motivic and semiorthogonal decompositions of moduli of bundles on curves.

SUMMARY:Gravitational Instantons
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Yu-Shen Lin (Boston University) \nTitle: Gravitational Instantons \nAbstract: Gravitational instantons were introduced by Hawking as building blocks of his Euclidean quantum gravity theory back in the 1970s. These are non-compact Calabi-Yau surfaces with L2 curvature and thus can be viewed as the non-compact analogue of K3 surfaces. K3 surfaces are 2-dimensional Calabi-Yau manifolds and are usually the testing stone before conquering the general Calabi-Yau problems. The moduli space of K3 surfaces and its compactification on their own form important problems in various branches in geometry. In this talk\, we will discuss the Torelli theorem of gravitational instantons\, how the cohomological invariants of a gravitational instanton determine them. As a consequence\, this leads to a description of the moduli space of gravitational instantons.
