Title: Looking for the Dubrovin-Zhang hierarchies
Abstract: We review some topics in the quest for the explicit formulation of the integrable hierarchies governing the generating functions of certain enumerative invariants: from the seminal result of Witten-Kontsevich, to the Givental quantization formula for the total descendent potential, to the Givental-Milanov-Tseng scheme to derive the associated Hirota equations. We will focus on some recent results concerning the total descendent potential of a class of genus-zero Hurwitz-Frobenius manifolds.
All interested are invited to participate
