Abstract

The concept of wall-crossing structure (WCS for short) was introduced recently in my joint work with Maxim Kontsevich. WCS appear in different disguises in the theory of Donaldson-Thomas invariants of Calabi-Yau 3-folds, quiver representations,integrable systems of Hitchin type, cluster algebras, Mirror Symmetry, etc.
I plan to discuss the definition of WCS and illustrate it in several well-known examples. If time permits I will speak about a special class of WCS called rational WCS. It gives rise to wall-crossing formulas with factors which are algebraic functions. Conjecturally such WCS appear in Hitchin integrable systems with singularities.
