Symplectic topology, mirror symmetry and integrable systems.

Using Sympelctic Field Theory as a computational tool, we compute Gromov-Witten theory of target curves using gluing formulas and quantum integrable systems. In the smooth case this leads to a relation of the results of Okounkov and Pandharipande with the quantum dispersionless KdV hierarchy, while in the orbifold case we prove triple mirror symmetry between GW theory of target P^1 orbifolds of positive Euler characteristic, singularity theory of a class of polynomials in three variables and extended affine Weyl groups of type ADE.
