========================================================= INFINITE ANALYSIS NEWS LETTER No. 281 January 14, 1998 ========================================================= Secretariat, Juten Ryoiki Kenkyu 231 Tel. & Fax: 075-753-3707 Email: juten::kusm.kyoto-u.ac.jp We welcome related information. ============================================== Seminar Information ============================================== The Second Announcement Workshop "Algebraically Integrable Systems and Superstring" After the second superstring revolution, there are amazing developments and much influence to mathematics and/or interaction between physics and math. We organize a workshop as below with focus on integrable systems related to spectral curves or branes, developments on Donaldson invariants by Moore-Witten, and works by Kontsevich on (II)B model. We have much time after the talks each day and want to have discussion on the topics chosen. We expect participation by both of physicists and mathematicians who have interest in the above topics. Date : Jan. 28(Wed) -- 30(Fri) Place : Department of Mathematics, Faculty of Science, Kyoto Univ. DaikaigiShitsu (1F) Topics (=titles of lectures): 1) Spectral curves and Prym varieties 2) Seiberg-Witten spectral curves 3) Donaldson invariants - work of Moore-Witten(hep-th/9709193) 4) Gauge theories in six dimensions (?) 5) Integrable systems and D-branes 6) Kontsevich's work on B-model(q-alg/9709040, alg-geom/9710032) 7) Seiberg-Witten invariants and symplectic geometry 8) Branes and Calabi-Yau threefolds Program : Jan.28 10:00 -- 11:00 2) K.Itoh (Dept. of Phys., Tsukuba Univ.) 13:00 -- 14:00 1) Y.Shimizu (Dept. of Math., Kyoto Univ.) 14:30 -- 15:30 5) K.Takasaki (Dept. of Fund.
