ABSTRACT: In the first part of this talk, I will discuss the
reconstructing problem in mirror symmetry, namely how we can construct
the mirror partner of a given variety. Although there are many examples
in which the costruction is done explicitly, it is usually quite
technical and I could not give it in full detail in this seminar.
However, I'll try to explain the main ideas behind
Kontsevich--Soibelman's construction and the Gross--Siebert's program.
In both approaches, a central role is played by scattering diagrams, and
in the last part of the talk, I will discuss one of the main results of
my thesis which is the definition of the extended tropical vertex group
where scattering diagrams can be defined. 

Best regards,
Andrea, Alessandro and Michele
