features stories and resources to help students learn about the heritage of this diverse region. Stories form a picture of the Delta's natural, historic, and cultural resources, and specific subject areas offer more detailed information on the area's role during the Civil War, its plantations, timber industry, and more.

In this talk, we will look at non-commutative versions of Landau-Ginzburg models. More precisely, given a simply connected manifold M such that its cochain algebra, C(M), is a pure Sullivan dga, we will consider curved deformations of the algebra of chains on its loop space and consider when the category of curved modules over these algebras becomes fully dualizable. For simple manifolds, like products of spheres, we are able to give an ex
