This is a review of the theory of toric Landau-Ginzburg models - the effective approach to mirror symmetry for Fano varieties. We mainly focus on the cases of dimensions 2 and 3, as well as on the case of complete intersections in weighted…

We introduce an explicit class of tempered Laurent polynomials in the sense of Villegas and Doran--Kerr in $n \leqslant 4$ variables including all Landau--Ginzburg models for smooth Fano threefolds with very ample anticanonical class. We…

There are well-understood methods, going back to Givental and Hori--Vafa, that to a Fano toric complete intersection X associate a Laurent polynomial f that corresponds to X under mirror symmetry. We describe a technique for inverting this…

We describe a practical and effective method for reconstructing the deformation class of a Fano manifold X from a Laurent polynomial f that corresponds to X under Mirror Symmetry. We explore connections to nef partitions, the smoothing of…

We prove the Landau-Ginzburg mirror symmetry conjecture between invertible quasi-homogeneous polynomial singularities at all genera. That is, we show that the FJRW theory (LG A-model) of such a polynomial is equivalent to the Saito-Givental…

The classification of Fano varieties is an important open question, motivated in part by the MMP. Smooth Fano varieties have been classified up to dimension three: one interesting feature of this classification is that they can all be…

Landau-Ginzburg mirror symmetry studies isomorphisms between graded Frobenius algebras, known as A- and B-models. Fundamental to constructing these models is the computation of the finite, Abelian $\textit{maximal symmetry group}$…

Given a smooth log Calabi--Yau pair $(X,D)$, we use the intrinsic mirror symmetry construction to define the mirror proper Landau--Ginzburg potential and show that it is a generating function of two-point relative Gromov--Witten invariants…

We introduce a class of Laurent polynomials, called maximally mutable Laurent polynomials (MMLPs), that we believe correspond under mirror symmetry to Fano varieties. A subclass of these, called rigid, are expected to correspond to Fano…

We consider mirror symmetry for Fano manifolds, and describe how one can recover the classification of 3-dimensional Fano manifolds from the study of their mirrors. We sketch a program to classify 4-dimensional Fano manifolds using these…

Given a Fano complete intersection defined by sections of a collection nef line bundles $L_1,\ldots, L_c$ on a Fano toric manifold $Y$, a construction of Givental/Hori-Vafa provides a mirror-dual Landau-Ginzburg model. This construction…
