In its earliest mathematical appearance, mirror symmetry was used to make predictions for certain numerical measurements of one space in terms of utterly different calculations on a mirror space. Mysteriously, certain famous arithmetic constants, the Riemann zeta values, were repeatedly observed to appear in the transformation taking measurements on one side to measurements on the mirror side.\u00a0 I will survey these ideas and then present joint work with Abouzaid, Iritani, and Sheridan explaining a geometric origin for the appearance of these constants in mirror symmetry.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<div>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 1\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<p>Sheel Ganatra is an Associate Professor at the University of Southern California.
