In arXiv:2011.08830 we established a series of correspondences relating five enumerative theories of log Calabi-Yau surfaces, i.e. pairs $(Y,D)$ with $Y$ a smooth projective complex surface and $D=D_1+\dots +D_l$ an anticanonical divisor on…
Theta functions were defined for varieties with effective anticanonical divisor and are related to certain punctured Gromov-Witten invariants. In this paper we show that in the case of a log Calabi-Yau surface (X,D) with smooth very ample…
Let $(X,E)$ be a smooth log Calabi-Yau pair consisting of a smooth Fano surface $X$ and a smooth anticanonical divisor $E$. We obtain certain higher genus local Gromov-Witten invariants from the projectivization of the canonical bundle $Z…
A log Calabi-Yau surface with maximal boundary, or Looijenga pair, is a pair $(Y,D)$ with $Y$ a smooth rational projective complex surface and $D=D_1+\dots + D_l \in |-K_Y|$ an anticanonical singular nodal curve. Under some positivity…
This survey covers recent developments on the geometry and physics of Looijenga pairs, namely pairs $(X,D)$ with $X$ a complex algebraic surface and $D$ a singular anticanonical divisor in it. I will describe a surprising web of…
For a log Calabi Yau pair (X,D) with X\D smooth affine, satisfying either assumption 1.1 of "The canonical wall structure and intrinsic mirror symmetry" or contains a Zariski dense torus, we prove under the condition that D is the support…
Let $(S,E)$ be a log Calabi-Yau surface pair with $E$ a smooth divisor. We define new conjecturally integer-valued counts of $\mathbb{A}^1$-curves in $(S,E)$. These log BPS numbers are derived from genus 0 log Gromov-Witten invariants of…
We study deformations of pairs (X,D), with X smooth projective variety and D a smooth or a normal crossing divisor, defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. Using the differential graded Lie algebras theory and the…
In this paper, we exhibit a formula relating punctured Gromov-Witten invariants used by Gross and Siebert to 2-point relative/logarithmic Gromov-Witten invariants with one point-constraint for any smooth log Calabi-Yau pair $(W,D)$. Denote…
We give a description of all log-Fano pairs (X, D) where X is a smooth toric surface and D a reduced simple normal crossing divisor such that the pair (X, D) is equivariant.
Gross and Siebert developed a program for constructing in arbitrary dimension a mirror family to a log Calabi--Yau pair $(X,D)$, consisting of a smooth projective variety $X$ with a normal-crossing anti-canonical divisor $D$ in $X$. In this…
We exhibit examples of pairs $(X,D)$ where $X$ is a smooth projective variety and $D$ is an anticanonical reduced simple normal crossing divisor such that the deformations of $(X,D)$ are obstructed. These examples are constructed via toric…
A log Calabi--Yau pair consists of a proper variety $X$ and a divisor $D$ on it such that $K_X+D$ is numerically trivial. A folklore conjecture predicts that the dual complex of $D$ is homeomorphic to the quotient of a sphere by a finite…
This contribution to the 2015 AMS Summer Institute in Algebraic Geometry (Salt Lake City) announces a general mirror construction. This construction applies to log Calabi-Yau pairs (X,D) with maximal boundary D or to maximally unipotent…
We establish a comparison result relating non-archimedean cylinder counts and logarithmic cylinder counts in a smooth affine log Calabi-Yau variety. Using the decomposition theorem and the gluing formula from log Gromov-Witten theory, we…
A great number of theoretical results are known about log Gromov-Witten invariants, but few calculations are worked out. In this paper we restrict to surfaces and to genus 0 stable log maps of maximal tangency. We ask how various natural…
Let $(X,D)$ be an open log del Pezzo surface of rank one, that is, $X$ is a normal projective surface of Picard rank one, the boundary $D$ is a reduced nonzero divisor on $X$, and the anti-log canonical divisor $-(K_X+D)$ is ample. We show…
A two-component Looijenga pair is a rational smooth projective surface with an anticanonical divisor consisting of two transversally intersecting curves. We establish an all-genus correspondence between the logarithmic Gromov-Witten theory…
We study log Calabi-Yau varieties obtained as a blow-up of a toric variety along hypersurfaces in its toric boundary. Mirrors to such varieties are constructed by Gross-Siebert from a canonical scattering diagram built by using punctured…
