Periodic Reporting for period 4 - GWT (Gromov-Witten Theory: Mirror Symmetry, Birational Geometry, and the Classification of Fano Manifolds)

Fano manifolds are basic building blocks in geometry -- they are, in a precise sense, atomic pieces of mathematical shapes. The central objective of this project is to find and classify Fano manifolds in dimensional four, using ideas that come from string theory in...
