About this title

Synopsis

This collection of 11 surveys from the spring 1995 workshop includes recent developments in the theory of mirror manifolds and the related areas of complex and symplectic geometry. The long introductory articles explain the key physical ideas and motivation, namely conformal field theory, supersymmetry, and string theory. Open problems are emphasized. For graduate students and researchers working in mathematics and theoretical physics, especially in algebraic or complex geometry or conformal field theory. No index.
