In this paper, we prove a homological mirror symmetry equivalence for pairs of multiplicative hypertoric varieties, and we calculate monodromy autoequivalences of these categories by promoting our result to an equivalence of perverse…
This is an exposition of recent progress in the categorical approach to D-brane physics. I discuss the physical underpinnings of the appearance of homotopy categories and triangulated categories of D-branes from a string field theoretic…
We study aspects related to Kontsevich's homological mirror symmetry conjecture in the case of Calabi-Yau complete intersections in toric varieties. In a 1996 lecture at Rutgers University, Kontsevich indicated how his proposal implies that…
This is the first of a series of papers in which we initiate and develop the theory of reflection monoids, motivated by the theory of reflection groups. The main results identify a number of important inverse semigroups as reflection…
This is an expository article. We survey some fundamental trends in representation theory of symmetric groups and related objects which became apparent in the last fifteen years. The emphasis is on connections with Lie theory via…
A carefully constructed explanation of my connection of the real normed division algebras to the particles, charges and fields of the Standard Model of quarks and leptons provided to an interested group of attendees of the 2nd Mile High…
We introduce self-dual manifolds and show that they can be used to encode mirror symmetry for affine-K\"{a}hler manifolds and for elliptic curves. Their geometric properties, especially the link with special lagrangian fibrations and the…
In these notes we review the role played by the quantum mechanics and sigma models of symmetric product spaces in the light-cone quantization of quantum field theories, string theory and matrix theory. Lectures given at the Institute for…
In the SYZ program, the mirror of $Y$ is the moduli space of Lagrangian branes in $Y$. When $Y$ is equipped with a Hamiltonian $G$-action, we prove that its mirror determines a canonical complex Lagrangian subvariety in the Coulomb branch…
These lecture notes were prepared for the workshop ``Algebraic Geometry: Presentations by Young Researchers'' in Snowbird, Utah, July 2004, and for the autumn school in Lukecin, Poland, September 2004. In six lectures I attempted to present…
We introduce framed versions of the $L$-moves and prove a one move theorem for the extension of the Markov theorem for framed braids. We further introduce framed versions of the Hilden and Pure Hilden groups, we give presentations and we…
These are notes of my lectures given at the school on intersection theory and moduli at the ICTP, Trieste. We construct moduli spaces of K3 surfaces and higherdimensional hyperkaehler manifolds, including moduli spaces of (2,2)-conformal…
This survey was written for the Current Developments in Mathematics conference, 2012, and is an updating of my article "The Strominger-Yau-Zaslow conjecture: From torus fibrations to degenerations," in the Seattle 2005 proceedings. We trace…
Before retiring, looking back to forty years of writing and publishing scientific papers, I decided to present to the scientific community a selection of my scientific works. I chose mostly articles published in prestigious journals or…
Mostly inspired by recent work by Katzarkov, Kontsevich, and Sheshmani, combined with previous work by Aganagic, Ooguri, Saulina and Vafa with regard to BPS black hole microstate counting in terms of topological field theory calculations,…
In this paper we study Seidel's mirror map for abelian and Kummer surfaces. We find that mirror symmetry leads in a very natural way to the classical parametrization of Kummer surfaces in $\P^3$. Moreover, we describe a family of embeddings…
In this work we find the first examples of (0,2) mirror symmetry on compact non-K\"ahler complex manifolds. For this we follow Borisov's approach to mirror symmetry using vertex algebras and the chiral de Rham complex. Our examples of (0,2)…
After the appearance of my preprint [T3] (Special Lagrangian geometry and slightly deformed algebraic geometry (spLag and sdAG), Warwick preprint 22/1998, alg-geom/9806006, 54 pp.). I received an e-mail from Cumrun Vafa, who recognized that…
We derive two geometric approaches to categorification of quantum invariants of links associated to an arbitrary compact simple Lie group $^L{G}$. In part I, we describe the first approach, based on an equivariant derived category of…
In the revised version of the paper, we correct misprints and add some new statements.
