DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/BUGeom/32/">
 The Greene-Plesser Construction Revisited</a>\nby Charles Doran (Universit
 y of Alberta) as part of Boston University Geometry/Physics Seminar\n\nLec
 ture held in Zoom meeting ID: 953 4652 9200.\n\nAbstract\nThe first known 
 construction of mirror pairs of Calabi-Yau manifolds was the Greene-Plesse
 r “quotient and resolve” procedure which applies to pencils of hypersu
 rfaces in projective space.  We’ll review this approach\, uncover the hi
 nts it gives for some more general mirror constructions\, and describe a b
 rand-new variant that applies to pencils of hypersurfaces in Grassmannians
 .  This last is joint work with Tom Coates and Elana Kalashnikov (arXiv:21
 10.0727).\n
