Description This meeting will be an international gathering of leading researchers to discuss the latest developments in our understanding of "mirror symmetry", a surprising relation that can exist between two Calabi-Yau manifolds. It happens that two such geometries may look very different, but are nevertheless equivalent when employed as hidden dimensions in string theory. Mirror symmetry has become a very powerful tool in both physics and mathematics.
