Symplectic geometry of Frobenius structures

Abstract

The purpose of the notes is to reiterate and expand the viewpoint, outlined in the paper math.AG/0110142 of T. Coates and the author, which recasts the concept of Frobenius manifold in terms of linear symplectic geometry and exposes the role of the twisted loop group L(2)GLN of hidden symmetries. New applications include a several line proof of the genus 0 Virasoro constraints and the quantum Hirzebruch-Riemann-Roch theorem in the theory of cobordism-valued Gromov-Witten invariants.
