Speaker: Shamit Kachru (Stanford)

Time: 16:15-16:50 (GMT+0), 2021.08.11

Abstract:

I describe — in qualitative terms — two methods of determining smooth, Ricci flat metrics on K3, and a string duality which relates them. (This talk is based on the papers arXiv:1810.10540 and arXiv:2006.02435, jointly written by A. Tripathy and M. Zimet.)
