We study a kaehler potential K in the large radius region of a Calabi-Yau d-fold M embedded in CP^{d+1}. It has a kaehler parameter t that describes a deformation of the A-model moduli. Also the metric, curvature and hermitian two-point…
We study a kaehler potential K of a one parameter family of Calabi-Yau d-fold embedded in CP^{d+1}. By comparing results of the topological B-model and the data of the CFT calculation at Gepner point, the K is determined unambiguously. It…
We study quantum Kahler moduli space of Calabi-Yau fourfolds. Our analysis is based on the recent work by Jockers et al. which gives a novel method to compute the Kahler potential on the quantum Kahler moduli space of Calabi-Yau manifold.…
The goal of the present paper is to calculate the complex structure moduli space K\"ahler potentials for hypersurfaces in weighted projective spaces and compare with the partition functions of their mirror GLSMs. We explicitly perform the…
We consider Calabi-Yau compactifications with one K\"ahler modulus. Following the method of Candelas et al. we use the mirror hypothesis to solve the quantum theory exactly in dependence of this modulus by performing the calculation for the…
A holomorphy potential is a complex valued function whose complex gradient, with respect to some K\"ahler metric, is a holomorphic vector field. Given $k$ holomorphic vector fields on a compact complex manifold, form, for a given K\"ahler…
Motivated by the classical statements of Mirror Symmetry, we study certain Kahler metrics on the complexified Kahler cone of a Calabi-Yau threefold, conjecturally corresponding to approximations to the Weil-Petersson metric near large…
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 investigate the complex and K\"ahler attractor mechanisms of moduli spaces of Calabi-Yau 3-folds. The complex attractor mechanism was previously studied by Ferrara-Kallosh-Strominger, Moore and others in string theory. It is concerned…
A symplectically invariant definition of special K\"ahler geometry is discussed. Certain aspects hereof are illustrated by means of Calabi-Yau moduli spaces.
Calabi-Yau threefolds with infinitely many flops to isomorphic manifolds have an extended Kahler cone made up from an infinite number of individual Kahler cones. These cones are related by reflection symmetries across flop walls. We study…
The Kahler potential is the least understood part of effective N=1 supersymmetric theories derived from string compactifications. Even at tree-level, the Kahler potential for the physical matter fields, as a function of the moduli fields,…
We describe a simple class of type IIA string compactifications on Calabi-Yau manifolds where background fluxes generate a potential for the complex structure moduli, the dilaton, and the K\"ahler moduli. This class of models corresponds to…
We compute the exact two-sphere partition function and matrix of two-point functions of operators in the chiral ring with their complex conjugates in two-dimensional supersymmetric gauge theories. For gauge theories that flow in the…
Recently it has been shown that the two-sphere partition function of a gauged linear sigma model of a Calabi-Yau manifold yields the exact quantum Kahler potential of the Kahler moduli space of that manifold. Since four-dimensional N=2…
We investigate a new property for compact Kahler manifolds. Let X be a Kahler manifold of dimension n and let H^{1,1} denote the (1,1) part of its real second cohomology. On this space, we have an degree n form given by cup product. Let K…
We explain how to relate the problem of finding a mirror manifold for a Calabi-Yau manifold to the problem of characterizing the rational homotopy types of closed K\"{a}hler manifolds.
In this paper, we first derive an intrinsic definition of classical triple intersection numbers of K_S, where S is a complex toric surface, and use this to compute the extended Picard-Fuchs system of K_S of our previous paper, without…
We establish the general formalism for constructing metrics of Calabi-Yau (p+1)-folds in terms of that of a p-fold by adding a complex-line bundle. We present a few explicit low-lying examples. We further consider holomorphic linearization…
