Abstract

Landau-Ginzburg mirror symmetry predicts isomorphisms between graded Frobenius algebras (denoted A\mathcal{A} and B\mathcal{B}) that are constructed from a nondegenerate quasihomogeneous polynomial WW and a related group of symmetries GG. Duality between A\mathcal{A} and B\mathcal{B} models has been conjectured for particular choices of WW and GG. These conjectures have been proven in many instances where WW is restricted to having the same number of monomials as variables (called invertible\textit{invertible}). Some conjectures have been made regarding isomorphisms between A\mathcal{A} and B\mathcal{B} models when WW is allowed to have more monomials than variables. In this paper we show these conjectures are false; that is, the conjectured isomorphisms do not exist. Insight into this problem will not only generate new results for Landau-Ginzburg mirror symmetry, but will also be interesting from a purely algebraic standpoint as a result about groups acting on graded algebras.
