Description

The speakers: - Charles Doran (University of Alberta) - Matt Kerr (Washington University) - Radu Laza (Stony Brook University) - Johannes Walcher (University of Heidelberg) - Don Zagier (MPIM Bonn)

The topic: Hodge-theoretic and arithmetic aspects of families of Calabi-Yau varieties (mainly in dimensions 2 and 3), in particular differential equations for periods, degenerations at the boundary, compactifications of moduli spaces, and relations to modular and more general automorphic forms, as well as to physics.

The school is intended for both mathematicians and string theorists with interest in mathematical aspects of Calabi-Yau manifolds.
