Title

Quantum sheaf cohomology on Grassmannians

Abstract

Quantum sheaf cohomology arises as the OPE ring of A/2 twisted theories with (0,2) supersymmetry. It is a deformation of the ordinary quantum cohomology. Its structure is well understood for toric varieties, but few results exsited for other spaces. In this talk, I will introduce recent progress on the study of quantum sheaf cohomology on Grassmannians with a deformed tangent bundle, especially an algebraic treatment of the classical limit, known as polymology, and how quantum corrections can be inferred.
