We address the spectral problem of the normal quantum mechanical operator associated to the quantized mirror curve of the toric (almost) del Pezzo Calabi--Yau threefold called local $\mathbb{P}^2$ in the case of complex values of Planck's…

We define the counting of holomorphic cylinders in log Calabi-Yau surfaces. Although we start with a complex log Calabi-Yau surface, the counting is achieved by applying methods from non-archimedean geometry. This gives rise to new…

We study homological mirror symmetry for Del Pezzo surfaces and their mirror Landau-Ginzburg models. In particular, we show that the derived category of coherent sheaves on a Del Pezzo surface X_k obtained by blowing up CP^2 at k points is…

For all k>0 integer, we consider the regularised I-function of the family of del Pezzo surfaces of degree 8k+4 in P(2,2k+1,2k+1, 4k+1), first constructed by Johnson and Koll\'ar. We show that this function, which is of hypergeometric type,…

In a previous paper, the author introduced a Z-structure in quantum cohomology defined by the K-theory and the Gamma class and showed that it is compatible with mirror symmetry for toric orbifolds. Applying the quantum Lefschetz principle…

Quantizing the mirror curve of certain toric Calabi-Yau (CY) three-folds leads to a family of trace class operators. The resolvent function of these operators is known to encode topological data of the CY. In this paper, we show that in…

Let $X$ be a Fano variety, and $D\subset X$ be an snc anticanonical divisor. We study relative mirror symmetry for the log Calabi--Yau pair $(X,D)$. (1) We prove a relative mirror theorem for snc pairs without assuming the divisors are nef.…
