Abstract

I will introduce F-bundles, the spectral decomposition theorem and the equivariant unfolding theorem. I will discuss applications to quantum cohomology, mirror symmetry and birational invariants, in particular, to the proof of irrationality of very general cubic fourfolds. The talk is based on arXiv preprints ‪2411.02266‬, ‪2505.09950‬ and ‪2508.05105‬.
