Title: An introduction to SYZ mirror symmetry
Abstract: The study of mirror symmetry discovered by string theorists has led to revolutionary developments in enumerative geometry in the past two decades. In this talk, I will illustrate mirror symmetry by a simple example, and explain a mathematical approach to study mirror symmetry proposed by Strominger-Yau-Zaslow, which has closed relations with Lagrangian intersection theory.
