Abstract

We introduce a new technique for approaching birationality questions that arise in the mirror symmetry of complete intersections in toric varieties. As an application we answer affirmatively and conclusively the question of Batyrev-Nill (2008) about the birationality of Calabi-Yau families associated to multiple mirror nef-partitions. This completes the progress in this direction made by Li's breakthrough (2016). In the process, we obtain results in the theory of Borisov's nef-partitions (1993) and provide new insight on the geometric content of the multiple mirror phenomenon.
