Mirror Manifolds And Topological Field Theory
read the original abstract
These notes are devoted to explaining aspects of the mirror manifold problem that can be naturally understood from the point of view of topological field theory. Basically this involves studying the topological field theories made by twisting $N=2$ sigma models. This is mainly a review of old results, except for the discussion in \S7 of certain facts that may be relevant to constructing the ``mirror map'' between mirror moduli spaces.

Worldsheet Duals to One-Matrix Models
A B-twisted Landau-Ginzburg model plus topological gravity on the worldsheet is shown to be the exact dual of any interacting one-matrix model, with matrix traces mapping directly to vertex operators and correlators a...

Fluid dynamics as intersection problem
Fluid dynamics is formulated as an intersection problem on a symplectic manifold associated with spacetime, yielding a geometric derivation of covariant hydrodynamics and extensions to multicomponent and anomalous fluids.

Nil-Equivariant Tropological Sigma Models on Filtered Geometries
Tropological sigma models on 4D targets are defined on filtered manifolds with nilpotent Engel algebra symmetries and conjectured to correspond to filtered Gromov-Witten invariants.
