The paper is devoted to the mathematical aspects of topological quantum field theory and its applications to enumerative problems of algebraic geometry. In particular, it contains an axiomatic treatment of Gromov–Witten classes, and a discussion of their properties for Fano varieties. Cohomological Field Theories are defined, and it is proved that tree level theories are determined by their correlation functions. Application to counting rational curves on del Pezzo surfaces and projective spaces are given. Let V be a projective algebraic manifold. Methods of quantum field theory recently led to a prediction of some numerical characteristics of the space of algebraic curves in V, especially of genus zero, eventually endowed with a parametrization and marked points. It turned out that
Generalized complex geometry
, 2007
"... Generalized complex geometry encompasses complex and symplectic geometry as its extremal special cases. We explore the basic properties of this geometry, including its enhanced symmetry group, elliptic deformation theory, relation to Poisson geometry, and local structure theory. We also define and s ..."

Generalized complex geometry encompasses complex and symplectic geometry as its extremal special cases. We explore the basic properties of this geometry, including its enhanced symmetry group, elliptic deformation theory, relation to Poisson geometry, and local structure theory. We also define and study generalized complex branes, which interpolate between flat bundles on

This paper gives a construction of braid group actions on the derived category of coherent sheaves on a variety X. The motivation for this is M. Kontsevich’s homological mirror conjecture, together with the occurrence of certain braid group actions in symplectic geometry. One of the main results is that when dim X ≥ 2, our braid group actions are always faithful. We describe conjectural mirror symmetries between smoothings and resolutions of singularities which lead us to find examples of braid group actions arising from crepant resolutions of various singularities. Relations with the McKay correspondence and with exceptional sheaves on Fano manifolds are given. Moreover, the case of an elliptic curve is worked out in some detail.

Keller introduced a notion of quotient of a differential graded category modulo a full differential graded subcategory which agrees with Verdier’s notion of quotient of a triangulated category modulo a triangulated subcategory. This work is an attempt to further develop his theory.
