In this paper we will describe an approach to mirror symmetry for appropriate 1-dimensional DM stacks of arithmetic genus $g \leq 1$, called tcnc curves, which was developed by the author with Treumann and Zaslow in arXiv:1103.2462 . This…
We discuss an explicit field theory construction of three dimensional mirrors for a large sub-class of quiver gauge theories involving unitary and special unitary gauge nodes with matter in fundamental and bifundamental representations. For…
We generalize the known method for explicit construction of mirror pairs of $(2,2)$-superconformal field theories, using the formalism of Landau-Ginzburg orbifolds. Geometrically, these theories are realized as Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in…
J.Eells and L. Lemaire introduced k-harmonic maps, and T. Ichiyama, J. Inoguchi and H.Urakawa showed the first variation formula. In this paper, we give the second variation formula of k-harmonic maps, and show non-existence theorem of…
In this paper we review recent results on symmetries in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory. Symmetries are of invaluable help in studying and constraining the scattering amplitudes, and there has been a lot of progress in recent years concerning…
We use the differential geometrical framework of generalized (almost) Calabi-Yau structures to reconsider the concept of mirror symmetry. It is shown that not only the metric and B-field but also the algebraic structures are uniquely…
The status of several representative gauge theories on various quantum space-times, mainly focusing on Yang-Mills type extensions together with a few matrix model formulations is overviewed. The common building blocks are derivation based…
To a quiver with involution, we study the Coulomb branch of the 3d $\mathcal{N} = 4$ involution-fixed part of the quiver gauge theory. We show that there is an algebra homomorphism from the corresponding shifted twisted Yangian to the…
We argue that presymmetry, a hidden predynamical electroweak quark-lepton symmetry that explains the fractional charges and triplication of families, must be extended beyond the Standard Model as to have a residual presymmetry that embraces…
This is the first in a series of papers that deals with duality statements such as Mukai-duality (T-duality, from algebraic geometry) and the Baum-Connes conjecture (from operator $K$-theory). These dualities are expressed in terms of…
In the algebraic setting, cluster varieties were reformulated by Gross-Hacking-Keel as log Calabi-Yau varieties admitting a toric model. Building on work of Shende-Treumann-Williams-Zaslow in dimension 2, we describe the mirror to the GHK…
Let $A$ be a finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field $k$, and $M$ be a partial tilting $A$-module. We prove that the Bongartz $\tau$-tilting complement of $M$ coincides with its Bongartz complement, and then we give a…
J. Eells and L. Lemaire introduced k-harmonic maps, and Wang Shaobo showed the first variational formula. When, k=2, it is called biharmonic maps (2-harmonic maps). There have been extensive studies in the area. In this paper, we consider…
We analyze the moduli spaces of Calabi-Yau threefolds and their associated conformally invariant nonlinear sigma-models and show that they are described by an unexpectedly rich geometrical structure. Specifically, the Kahler sector of the…
We consider a class of special Lagrangian subspaces of Calabi-Yau manifolds and identify their mirrors, using the recent derivation of mirror symmetry, as certain holomorphic varieties of the mirror geometry. This transforms the counting of…
These notes are devoted to explaining aspects of the mirror manifold problem that can be naturally understood from the point of view of topological field theory. Basically this involves studying the topological field theories made by…
A Calabi-Yau threefold is called of type K if it admits an \'etale Galois covering by the product of a K3 surface and an elliptic curve. In our previous paper, based on Oguiso-Sakurai's fundamental work, we provide the full classification…
We show homological mirror symmetry results relating coherent analytic sheaves on some complex elliptic surfaces and objects of certain Fukaya categories. We first define the notion of a non-algebraic Landau-Ginzburg model on $\mathbb{R}…
Starting from mirror pairs consisting only of linear (framed A-type) quivers, we demonstrate that a wide class of three-dimensional quiver gauge theories with N=4 supersymmetry and their mirror duals can be obtained by suitably gauging…
The map of half-BPS line defects under mirror symmetry has previously been worked out for 3d $\mathcal{N}=4$ linear quivers with unitary gauge groups, where these defects have a clear realization in terms of a brane picture in Type IIB…
