Title:
Line bundle cohomology formulae on complex projective varieties

Speaker:
Andrei Constantin

Abstract:
Vector bundle cohomology represents a key ingredient for string phenomenology, being associated with the massless spectrum arising in string compactifications on smooth compact manifolds. Although standard algorithmic techniques exist for performing cohomology calculations, they are laborious and ill-suited for scanning over large sets of string compactifications to find those most relevant to particle physics. In this talk I will review some recent progress in deriving closed-form expressions for line bundle cohomology and discuss applications to string phenomenology.
