Topological Recursion and Cohomological Field Theories
In this talk I will give a gentle introduction in topological recursion and cohomological field theories. This is a procedure with the aim of recursively computing interesting geometric invariants such as the psi-classes over the moduli of curves or stationary Gromov-Witten invariants over the sphere. By means of the Airy spectral curve we will try to make the connection integrable hierarchies and resurgence also plausible.
