Title:  Open mirror theorem and crepant resolutions

Abstract:   In this talk, I will explain the relation of open Gromov-Witten invariants and Seidel representations for toric manifolds. This leads to an open mirror theorem, which expresses the mirror map in terms of open Gromov-Witten invariants. The theorem has a natural generalization to certain toric orbifolds. As a result we can see how the open invariants of a toric orbifold is linked to that of its crepant resolutions. This is a joint work with Chan, Cho, Leung and Tseng.
