Topic: 

Donaldson-Thomas invariants and birational transformations

Description: 

I'll discuss two results regarding how DT invariants (of smooth and projective Calabi-Yau threefolds) change under birational modifications. The first deals with flops and the second is related to the McKay correspondence and work of Jim Bryan and David Steinberg.
