Symplectic Geometry and Mirror Symmetry: Proceedings of the 4th KIAS Annual International Conference, Seoul, South Korea 14-18 August 2000

In 1993, M. Kontsevich proposed a conceptual framework for explaining the phenomenon of mirror symmetry. Mirror symmetry had been discovered by physicists in string theory as a duality between families of three-dimensional Calabi-Yau manifolds. Kontsevich's proposal uses Fukaya's construction of the A.
