Description

In this talk I'll demonstrate how to find numerical approximations of the unique Ricci-flat metric on Calabi-Yau manifolds with the new open source package \texttt{cymetric}. In a first step points and their integration weights are sampled from some Calabi-Yau manifold. In a second step a neural network will be trained to learn the exact correction to the Fubini-Study metric. A jupyter notebook will be used to visualize this process.
