Title: The Ooguri-Vafa Metric, Holomorphic Disks, and Wall Crossing

Brief Description:
Special Note:
Abstract:

I will discuss the relation between the construction of the Ooguri-Vafa metric by the method of Gaiotto-Moore-Neitzke and wall-crossing formulas in mirror symmetry. In particular, we will see how the Ooguri-Vafa metric is related to nontrivial holomorphic discs with boundary in special Lagrangian torus fibers.
