This course aims to build a knowledge base on regularization techniques for moduli spaces arising from geometric PDE’s (in particular pseudholomorphic curves). Regularization techniques of the type discussed here were first developed in the 1980s as part of the construction of Gromov-Witten invariants (from pseudoholomorphic curves) and Donaldson invariants (from Yang-Mills instantons). They have since … Read more

Organized by Kenji Fukaya, Dusa McDuff, and John Morgan January 2 – June 30, 2014 Gromov-Witten theory, Lagrangian-Floer homology and symplectic field theory arise from the notion of pseudo-holomorphic curves, possibly with boundary conditions, in symplectic manifolds. All these theories rely in a fundamental way on Gromov’s compactness result for moduli spaces of pseudo-holomorphic curves, … Read more
