Extremal Transitions in Gromov-Witten Theory

Emanuel Diaconescu
Rutgers University
Physics

This talk is focused on the behavior of Gromov-Witten invariants
under extremal transitions between Calabi-Yau threefolds. We will
formulate a conjecture inspired by string theory and discuss results
obtained so far.
