Watch a 72-minute mathematics seminar presentation where Professor Tobias Ekholm from Uppsala University explores skein valued counts of open holomorphic curves in symplectic Calabi-Yau 3-fold geometry. Delve into the invariance of these counts under deformations and their applications to the Ooguri-Vafa conjecture and topological vertex recursion relations. Learn about polyfold perturbation schemes for Gromov-Witten counts of bare curves, with particular focus on ghost bubble traces and forgetful map existence limitations. Understand groundbreaking research conducted in collaboration with V. Shende that advances our understanding of symplectic geometry and its mathematical applications.
