We compactify M(atrix) theory on Riemann surfaces Sigma with genus g>1. Following [1], we construct a projective unitary representation of pi_1(Sigma) realized on L^2(H), with H the upper half-plane. As a first step we introduce a suitably…
This article studies the geometry of moduli spaces of G2-manifolds, associative cycles, coassociative cycles and deformed Donaldson-Thomas bundles. We introduce natural symmetric cubic tensors and differential forms on these moduli spaces.…
We describe the tropical mirror for complex toric surfaces. In particular we provide an explicit expression for the mirror states and show that they can be written in enumerative form. Their holomorphic germs give an explicit form of good…
The proposed physical duality known as 3d mirror symmetry relates the geometries of dual pairs of holomorphic symplectic stacks. It has served in recent years as a guiding principle for developments in representation theory. However, due to…
We consider topological sigma models with generalized Kahler target spaces. The mirror map is constructed explicitly for a special class of target spaces and the topological A and B model are shown to be mirror pairs in the sense that the…
In this paper we consider an inverse problem of determining a minimal surface embedded in a Riemannian manifold. We show under a topological condition that if $\Sigma$ is a $2$-dimensional embedded minimal surface, then the knowledge of the…
For a large class of $N=2$ SCFTs, which includes minimal models and many $\s$ models on Calabi-Yau manifolds, the mirror theory can be obtained as an orbifold. We show that in such a situation the construction of the mirror can be extended…
We realise the Shatashvili-Vafa superconformal algebra for $G_2$ string compactifications by combining Odake and free conformal algebras following closely the recent mathematical construction of twisted connected sum $G_2$ holonomy…
Mirror symmetry relates type IIB string theory on a Calabi-Yau 3-fold to type IIA on the mirror CY manifold, whose complex structure and Kaehler moduli spaces are exchanged. We show that the mirror map is a particular case of a more general…
We rewrite the N=(2,2) non-linear sigma model using auxiliary spinorial superfields defining the model on ${\cal T}\oplus^ *{\cal T}$, where ${\cal T}$ is the tangent bundle of the target space. This is motivated by possible connections to…
A typical large complex-structure limit for mirror symmetry consists of toric varieties glued to each other along their toric boundaries. Here we construct the mirror large volume limit space as a Weinstein symplectic manifold. We prove…
Outlined in this paper is a description of \emph{equivariance} in the world of 2-dimensional extended topological quantum field theories, under a topological action of compactLie groups. In physics language, I am gauging the theories ---…
The mirror of a projective toric manifold $X_\Sigma$ is given by a Landau-Ginzburg model $(Y,W)$. We introduce a class of Lagrangian submanifolds in $(Y,W)$ and show that, under the SYZ mirror transformation, they can be transformed to…
The present paper is dedicated to illustrating an extension of polar duality between Fano toric varieties to a more general duality, called \emph{framed} duality, so giving rise to a powerful and unified method of producing mirror partners…
For all punctured Riemann surfaces arising as mirror curves of toric Calabi--Yau threefolds, we show that their symplectic cohomology is isomorphic to the compactly supported Hochschild cohomology of the noncommutative Landau--Ginzburg…
We use a construction which we call generalized cylinders to give a new proof of the fundamental theorem of hypersurface theory. It has the advantage of being very simple and the result directly extends to semi-Riemannian manifolds and to…
For an appropriate choice of a $\mathbb{Z}$-grading structure, we prove that the wrapped Fukaya category of the symmetric square of a $(k+3)$-punctured sphere, i.e. the Weinstein manifold given as the complement of $(k+3)$ generic lines in…
Supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models have target spaces that carry interesting geometry. The geometry is richer the more supersymmetries the model has. The study of models with two dimensional world sheets is particularly rewarding since…
We state a number of conjectures that together allow one to classify a broad class of del Pezzo surfaces with cyclic quotient singularities using mirror symmetry. We prove our conjectures in the simplest cases. The conjectures relate…
We investigate mirror symmetry for toric Calabi-Yau manifolds from the perspective of the SYZ conjecture. Starting with a non-toric special Lagrangian torus fibration on a toric Calabi-Yau manifold $X$, we construct a complex manifold…
