DESCRIPTION:Motohico Mulase (UC Davis)\nA quantum curve is a magical objec
 t. It conjecturally captures a lot of information of quantum topological i
 nvariants in a compact manner. Mathematically a quantum curve is a D-modul
 e on a complex curve with a prescribed semi-classical limit.\nIn the first
  part of this talk\, I will start with a question: "what is the mirror dua
 l to the Catalan numbers?" By answering this question\, I will introduce t
 he idea of the Eynard-Orantin theory. In the second part of the talk\, I w
 ill show that the Eynard-Orantin theory is designed to give the canonical 
 generator of D-modules over any complete algebraic curve\, quantizing spec
 tral curves of Hitchin fibrations. The talk is based on my joint work with
  Olivia Dumitrescu (Hannover).
