Mirror Symmetry, Laurent Inversion and the Classification of $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano Threefolds

Abstract

We describe recent progress in a program to understand the classification of three-dimensional Fano varieties with Q\mathbb{Q}-factorial terminal singularities using mirror symmetry. As part of this we give an improved and more conceptual understanding of Laurent inversion, a technique that sometimes allows one to construct a Fano variety XX directly from a Laurent polynomial ff that corresponds to it under mirror symmetry.
