SUMMARY:Computing periods of hypersurfaces and elliptic surfaces via effective homology
DESCRIPTION:Algebraic Geometry in String Theory Seminar \nSpeaker: Eric Pichon-Pharabod\, Universite Paris-Saclay \nTitle: Computing periods of hypersurfaces and elliptic surfaces via effective homology \nAbstract: The period matrix of a smooth complex projective variety X encodes the isomorphism between its singular homology and its algebraic De Rham cohomology. Numerical approximations with sufficient precision of the entries of this matrix\, called periods\, allow to recover some algebraic invariants of the variety\, such as the Néron-Severi group in the case of surfaces. In this talk\, we will present a method relying on the computation of an effective description of the homology for obtaining such numerical approximations of the periods of hypersurfaces and elliptic surfaces.

SUMMARY:Mirror symmetry and log del Pezzo surfaces
DESCRIPTION:Algebraic Geometry in String Theory Seminar \nSpeaker: Franco Rota\, University of Glasgow \nTitle: Mirror symmetry and log del Pezzo surfaces \nAbstract: The homological mirror symmetry conjecture predicts a duality\, expressed in terms of categorical equivalences\, between the complex geometry of a variety X (the B side) and the symplectic geometry of its mirror object Y (the A side). Motivated by this\, we study a series of singular surfaces (called log del Pezzo). I will describe the category arising in the B side\, using the McKay correspondence and explicit birational geometry. I will discuss early results on the A side\, using the language of pseudolattices to focus on the special case of a smooth degree 2 del Pezzo surface. This is joint work with Giulia Gugiatti.
