We study the mixed Hodge theoretic aspects of the B-model side of local mirror symmetry. Our main objectives are to define an analogue of the Yukawa coupling in terms of the variations of the mixed Hodge structures and to study its…
Motivated by Aganagic's equivariant mirror symmetry for certain Coulomb branches of a $3d$ $\mathcal{N}= 4$ gauge quiver theory, we would like to propose a set of ideas towards an extension of Aganagic's proposal to Hitchin systems. At the…
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,…
The elliptic genus for arbitrary two dimensional $N=2$ Landau-Ginzburg orbifolds is computed. This is used to search for possible mirror pairs of such models. An important aspect of this work is that there is no restriction to theories for…
In this paper, we partially extend recent results of Wan concerning the relationship between the zeta functions of a Calabi-Yau hypersurface and its (singular) mirror variety.
In this paper, we provide a general framework for counting geometric structures in pseudo-random graphs. As applications, our theorems recover and improve several results on the finite field analog of questions originally raised in the…
We define and study the overconvergent site of an algebraic variety, the sheaf of overconvergent functions on this site and show that the modules of finite presentations correspond to Berthelot's overconvergent isocrystals. We work with…
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 ---…
We extend the discussion of mirror symmetry, Picard-Fuchs equations, instanton-corrected Yukawa couplings, and the topological one-loop partition function to the case of complete intersections with higher-dimensional moduli spaces. We will…
The canonical covering maps from Hurwitz varieties to configuration varieties are important in algebraic geometry. The scheme-theoretic fiber above a rational point is commonly connected, in which case it is the spectrum of a Hurwitz number…
We study algebraic points of bounded degree on polarized projective varieties. To do so, we refine further the filtration construction and Subspace Theorem approach, for the study of integral points, which has origins in the work of…
We report on recent progress in understanding mirror symmetry. Some of more recent generalizations and applications are also presented. --- A contribution to the Proceedings of ``Strings 2001'' at Mumbai, India.
We study orbifolds of (0,2) models and their relation to (0,2) mirror symmetry. In the Landau-Ginzburg phase of a (0,2) model the superpotential features a whole bunch of discrete symmetries, which by quotient action lead to a variety of…
Ebeling and Ploog \cite{EbelingPloog} studied a duality of bimodular singularities which is part of the Berglund--H$\ddot{\textnormal{u}}$bsch mirror symmetry. Mase and Ueda \cite{MU} showed that this duality leads to a polytope mirror…
We state a conjecture about the zeta function of crepant resolutions of Berglund--H\"ubsch orbifold hypersurfaces over a finite field. In addition to numerical evidence, we show that our conjectural zeta function satisfies the Weil…
Hurwitz numbers enumerate branched morphisms between Riemann surfaces. For a fixed elliptic target, Hurwitz numbers are intimately related to mirror symmetry following work of Dijkgraaf. In recent work of Chapuy and Dolega a new variant of…
In this paper, we use counting theorems from the geometry of numbers to extend the Riemann-Roch theorem and the Riemann-Hurwitz formula to global fields of arbitrary characteristic.
In the present article we prove a fixed point theorem for reflections of compact convex sets and give a new characterization of state space of JB-algebras among compact convex sets. Namely they are exactly those compact convex sets which…
We review recent advances towards the computation of string couplings. Duality symmetry, mirror symmetry, Picard-Fuchs equations, etc. are some of the tools.
Inspired in the theorem of Krein-Milamn, we investigate the existence of extreme points in compact convex subsets of asymmetric normed spaces. We focus our attention in the finite dimensional case, giving a geometric description of all…
