We prove Kontsevich's homological mirror symmetry conjecture for a large class of mirror pairs of Calabi--Yau hypersurfaces in toric varieties. These mirror pairs were constructed by Batyrev from dual reflexive polytopes. The theorem holds…
We propose a construction of string cohomology spaces for Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces that arise in Batyrev's mirror symmetry construction. The spaces are defined explicitly in terms of the corresponding reflexive polyhedra in a…
The aim of this paper is to give an application of p-adic Hodge theory to stringy Hodge numbers introduced by V. Batyrev for a mathematical formulation of mirror symmetry. Since the stringy Hodge numbers of an algebraic variety are defined…
These expository notes are based on lectures by Yongbin Ruan during a special semester on the B-model at the University of Michigan in Winter 2014. They outline and compare the mirror symmetry constructions of Batyrev-Borisov, Hori-Vafa,…
In this paper we complete the proof began by A. Polishchuk and E. Zaslow (math.AG/9801119) of a weak version of Kontsevich's homological mirror symmetry conjecture for elliptic curves. The main difference to the work of Polishchuk and…
In this paper, we give a proof of homological mirror symmetry for two variable invertible polynomials, where the symmetry group on the $B$-side is taken to be maximal. The proof involves an explicit gluing construction of the Milnor fibres,…
We prove equivalences of derived categories for the various mirrors in the Batyrev-Borisov construction. In particular, we obtain a positive answer to a conjecture of Batyrev and Nill. The proof involves passing to an associated category of…
We prove Kontsevich's homological mirror symmetry conjecture for certain mirror pairs arising from Batyrev-Borisov's `dual reflexive Gorenstein cones' construction. In particular we prove HMS for all Greene-Plesser mirror pairs (i.e.,…
We calculate chiral rings of the N=2 vertex algebras constructed from the combinatorial data of toric mirror symmetry and show that they coincide with the description of stringy cohomology conjectured previously in a joint work with A.…
All known string theory models may be obtained as partial fermionization, projection and background Ans\"atze from the original, purely bosonic string theory. The latter theory in turn has been recently shown to describe a chirally and…
This article surveys the development of the SYZ conjecture since it was proposed by Strominger, Yau and Zaslow in their famous 1996 paper, and discusses how it has been leading us to a thorough understanding of the geometry underlying…
It is shown that in string theory mirror duality is a gauge symmetry (a Weyl transformation) in the moduli space of $N=2$ backgrounds on group manifolds, and we conjecture on the possible generalization to other backgrounds, such as…
We construct a class of symplectic non--Kaehler and complex non--Kaehler string theory vacua, extending and providing evidence for an earlier suggestion by Polchinski and Strominger. The class admits a mirror pairing by construction.…
This work establishes a subtle connection between mirror symmetry for Calabi-Yau threefolds and that of curves of higher genus. The linking structure is what we call a perverse curve. We show how to obtain such from Calabi-Yau threefolds in…
In this note we present pairs of hyperkaehler orbifolds which satisfy two different versions of mirror symmetry. On the one hand, we show that their Hodge numbers (or more precisely, stringy E-polynomials) are equal. On the other hand, we…
We give a purely algebraic proof of the hypersurface case of Toric Residue Mirror Conjecture recently proposed by Batyrev and Materov.
Let $Z^\circ$ be a complete intersection inside $(\mathbb{C}^*)^n$ that compactifies to a smooth Calabi-Yau subvariety $Z$ inside a Fano toric variety $X$. We compute the skeleton of $Z^\circ$ and describe its decomposition into standard…
We prove the Mirror Conjecture for Calabi-Yau manifolds equipped with a holomorphic symplectic form. Such manifolda are also known as complex manifolds of hyperkaehler type. We obtain that a complex manifold of hyperkaehler type is Mirror…
We prove the `integrality of Taylor coefficients of mirror maps' conjecture for Greene--Plesser mirror pairs as a natural byproduct of an arithmetic refinement of homological mirror symmetry. We also prove homological mirror symmetry for…
In this paper, we establish equivariant mirror symmetry for the weighted projective line. This extends the results by B. Fang, C.C. Liu and Z. Zong, where the projective line was considered [{\it Geometry \& Topology} 24:2049-2092, 2017].…
