This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF, will be devoted 
to problems in calibrated geometry related to mirror symmetry and
gauge theory. 

Some specific topics to be discussed include:

  *Calibrated cycles and mirror symmetry

  *Calibrated geometry and gauge Theory

  *Moduli spaces of calibrated cycles 

The workshop is organized by
Robert Bryant, Xiaobo Liu, and Pit-Mann Wong.

The AIM Research Conference Center (ARCC) hosts focused
workshops in all areas of the mathematical sciences. ARCC
focused workshops are distinguished by their emphasis on
a specific mathematical goal, such as making progress on a
significant unsolved problem, understanding the proof of an
important new result, or investigating the convergence between
two distinct areas of mathematics.
