A conference "Mirror symmetry in the Midwest II" will be held in University of Wisconsin-Madison on November 8 -11, 2012. This conference is the second in a series organized by University of Wisconsin-Madison and Kansas State University. One may find the web site of last year's conference, along with a list of participants, many of whom are expected to participate this year as well, at http://www.math.ksu.edu/~galston/conference/index.html The NSF has approved funding for the conference. Kevin Costello from Northwesern University will give a series of 3-4 lectures on his recent work on Quantum Field Theory. We intend to have a diversity of participants, including some physicists in addition to mathematicians. We are expecting to have another 12-15 lectures by invited guest speakers. Like last year, a significant part of the funding will go to recruiting graduate student participants, so relevant interested graduate students are encouraged to apply. The deadline to apply for support is October 7. We have set up a preliminary web site with partial information at http://www.math.wisc.edu/~oh/uw-ksu-index.html Registration is possible in this website. The list of invited speakers is still preliminary.
