Topological recursion

Topological recursion is a mathematical technique developed primarily in the context of algebraic geometry, combinatorics, and mathematical physics. It is particularly employed in the study of topological properties of certain kinds of mathematical objects, such as algebraic curves, and it has connections to areas like gauge theory, string theory, and random matrix theory. The concept was introduced by Mirzayan and others in the context of enumerative geometry and has found numerous applications since then.
