Description
In this talk we present a new formalism for computing unambiguously open and closed topological string amplitudes. The formalism is based on a recursive method for computing invariants of algebraic curves recently proposed by Eynard and Orantin. The resulting amplitudes are non-perturbative in both the closed and the open moduli. The formalism can then be used to study stringy phase transitions in the open/closed moduli space.
