We consider two explicit constructions of states in the orbifolds of a product of Minimal $N=(2,2)$ models which are based on twisting by spectral flow, mutual locality and operator algebra requirement. It is shown that these two…
The goal of this paper is to make the vertex operator algebra approach to mirror symmetry accessible to algebraic geometers. Compared to better-known approaches using moduli spaces of stable maps and special Lagrangian fibrations, this…
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 give an introduction to mirror symmetry of strings on Calabi-Yau manifolds with an emphasis on its applications e.g. for the computation of Yukawa couplings. We introduce all necessary concepts and tools such as the basics of toric…
In this article, we establish homological Berglund--H\"ubsch mirror symmetry for curve singularities where the A--model incorporates equivariance, otherwise known as homological Berglund--H\"ubsch--Henningson mirror symmetry, including for…
(Talk given at the Oskar Klein centenary symposium 19-21 September 1994 in Stockholm, Sweden, to appear in the proceedings.) The first half of this talk is a non-technical discussion of some general aspects of string theory, in particular…
We prove a derived analogue to the results of Borisov, Clarke, Kelly, and Shoemaker on the birationality of Berglund-Hubsch-Krawitz mirrors. Heavily bootstrapping off work of Seidel and Sheridan, we obtain Homological Mirror Symmetry for…
We consider Takahashi's categorical interpretation of the Berglund-Hubsch mirror symmetry conjecture for invertible polynomials in the case of chain polynomials. Our strategy is based on a stronger claim that the relevant categories satisfy…
For certain quasismooth Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in weighted projective space, the Berglund-H\"{u}bsch-Krawitz (BHK) mirror symmetry construction gives a concrete description of the mirror. We prove that the minimal log discrepancy of the…
Mostly inspired by recent work by Katzarkov, Kontsevich, and Sheshmani, combined with previous work by Aganagic, Ooguri, Saulina and Vafa with regard to BPS black hole microstate counting in terms of topological field theory calculations,…
We give a method for constructing Kummer covers with many points over finite fields.
We study the categories of singularities coming from Landau-Ginzburg models given by the invertible polynomials. Such categories appear on the B-side of the Berglund-H\"ubsch mirror symmetry. We provide an efficient method of computing…
This expository article discusses recent advances in understanding 3-dimensional mirror symmetry and the mathematical definitions of the Higgs and Coulomb branches. This is a slightly expanded version of an article appearing in the Notices…
The B-side of Kontsevich's Homological Mirror Symmetry Conjecture is discussed. We give first a self-contained study of derived categories and their homological algebra, and later restrict to the bounded derived category of schemes and…
We describe how to find period integrals and Picard-Fuchs differential equations for certain one-parameter families of Calabi-Yau manifolds. These families can be seen as varieties over a finite field, in which case we show in an explicit…
Mirror symmetry, a phenomenon in superstring theory, has recently been used to give tentative calculations of several numbers in algebraic geometry. In this paper, the numbers of lines and conics on various hypersurfaces which satisfy…
