For a nondegenerate homogeneous polynomial $f\in\mathbb{C}[z_0, \dots, z_{n+1}]$ with degree $n+2$, we can obtain a $tt^*$ structure from the Landau-Ginzburg model $(\C^{n+2}, f)$ and a (new) $tt^*$ structure on the Calabi-Yau hypersurface…
The aim of this paper is to rigorously establish the Calabi-Yau/Landau-Ginzburg (CY/LG) correspondence for the $tt^*$ geometry structure--a generalized version of variation of Hodge structures. Although it is well-known that there exists a…
We establish an isomorphism between two Frobenius algebra structures, termed CY and LG, on the primitive cohomology of a smooth Calabi--Yau hypersurface in a simplicial Gorenstein toric Fano variety. As an application of our comparison…
We prove the classical mirror symmetry conjecture for the mirror pairs constructed by Berglund, H\"ubsch, and Krawitz. Our main tool is a cohomological LG/CY correspondence which provides a degree-preserving isomorphism between the…
We discuss a possible generalization of the Calabi-Yau/Landau-Ginzburg correspondence to a more general class of manifolds. Specifically we consider the Fermat type hypersurfaces $M_N^k$: $\sum_{i=1}^N X_i^k =0$ in ${\bf CP}^{N-1}$ for…
The base space of a semiuniversal unfolding of a hypersurface singularity carries a rich geometry. By work of K. Saito and M. Saito is can be equipped with the structure of a Frobenius manifold. By work of Cecotti and Vafa it can be…
The $tt^*$ equations define a flat connection on the moduli spaces of $2d, \mathcal{N}=2$ quantum field theories. For conformal theories with $c=3d$, which can be realized as nonlinear sigma models into Calabi-Yau d-folds, this flat…
By generalizing the Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau correspondence for hypersurfaces, we can relate a Calabi-Yau complete intersection to a hybrid Landau-Ginzburg model: a family of isolated singularities fibered over a projective line. In…
Given a Calabi-Yau smooth projective complete intersection variety $V$ over $\mathbb{C}$, a hybrid Landau-Ginzburg (LG) model may be associated using the Cayley trick. This hybrid LG model comprises a non-compact Calabi-Yau manifold…
The tt*-equation (topological-anti-topological fusion equation) was introduced by S. Cecotti and C. Vafa for describing massive deformation of supersymmetric conformal field theories. B. Dubrovin formulated the tt*-equation as a flat…
FJRW theory is a formulation of physical Landau-Ginzburg models with a rich algebraic structure, rooted in enumerative geometry. As a consequence of a major physical conjecture, called the Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau correspondence, several…
The recent result of Strominger, Yau and Zaslow relating mirror symmetry to the quantum field theory notion of T-duality is reinterpreted as providing a way of geometrically characterizing which Calabi-Yau manifolds have mirror partners.…
We present a generalization of the complete intersection in products of projective space (CICY) construction of Calabi-Yau manifolds. CICY three-folds and four-folds have been studied extensively in the physics literature. Their utility…
We observe that the state space of Landau-Ginzburg isolated singularities is simply a special case of Chen-Ruan orbifold cohomology relative to the generic fibre of the potential. This leads to the definition of the cohomology of hybrid…
We show how the Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau correspondence for the quintic three-fold can be cast into a global mirror symmetry framework. Then we draw inspiration from Berglund-H\"ubsch mirror duality construction to provide an analogue…
In this essay we aim to explore the Geometric aspects of the Calabi Conjecture and highlight the techniques of nonlinear Elliptic PDE theory used by S.T. Yau [SY] in obtaining a solution to the problem. Yau proves the existence of a…
Using a two component $SL(2) $ isospinor formalism, we study the link between conifold $T^{\ast}\mathbb{S}^{3}$ and q-deformed non commutative holomorphic geometry in complex four dimensions. Then, thinking about conifold as a projective…
This is a study of the Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau correspondence, and related matters, using linear sigma models.
Let $(G,\alpha)$ and $(H,\beta)$ be locally compact groupoids with Haar systems. We define a topological correspondence from $(G,\alpha)$ to $(H,\beta)$ to be a $G$-$H$-bispace $X$ on which $H$ acts properly and $X$ carries a continuous…
The construction of mirror symmetry in the heterotic string is reviewed in the context of Calabi-Yau and Landau-Ginzburg compactifications. This framework has the virtue of providing a large subspace of the configuration space of the…
