DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Xiaohan Yan\nhosted by Tamas Hausel\nAbstract: The Gro
 mov-Witten theory studies enumerative invariants of a projective variety $
 X$ through counting nodal curves\, and gives a family of deformed multipli
 cation structures on the cohomology of $X$\, known as the quantum cohomolo
 gy. For flag variety $X=G/B$\, relations in its quantum cohomology may be 
 obtained through studying the differential equations solved by the generat
 ing function known as the J-function\, which in turn come from the Toda la
 ttice system of the Langlands dual group of $G$. In the first part of this
  talk\, we review the story above. In the second part of this talk\, we di
 scuss how much of it still holds in K-theoretic settings\, where quantum K
 -theory will replace quantum cohomology\, and difference equations will re
 place differential equations. Quantum K-theory arises naturally in the fra
 mework of 3D mirror symmetry\, a duality between mirror holomorphic symple
 ctic varieties.
