This is an outline of work in progress concerning an algebro-geometric form of the Strominger-Yau-Zaslow conjecture. We introduce a limited type of degeneration of Calabi-Yau manifolds, which we call toric degenerations. For these, the…
We describe the mirror of the Z orbifold as a representation of a class of generalized Calabi-Yau manifolds that can be realized as manifolds of dimension five and seven. Despite their dimension these correspond to superconformal theories…
We investigate mirror symmetry for toric Calabi-Yau manifolds from the perspective of the SYZ conjecture. Starting with a non-toric special Lagrangian torus fibration on a toric Calabi-Yau manifold $X$, we construct a complex manifold…
For any triple of positive integers $A' = (a_1',a_2',a_3')$ and $c \in \mathbb{C}^*$, cusp polynomial $f_{A'} = x_1^{a_1'}+x_2^{a_2'}+x_3^{a_3'}-c^{-1}x_1x_2x_3$ is known to be mirror to Geigle-Lenzing orbifold projective line…
Exactly solvable mirror pairs of Calabi-Yau threefolds of hypersurface type exist in the class of Gepner models that include nondiagonal affine invariants. Motivated by the string modular interpretation established previously for models in…
We study the behavior of toric Landau-Ginzburg models under extremal contraction and minimal model program. We also establish a relation between the moduli space of toric Landau-Ginzburg models and the geography of central models. We…
Localization methods have produced explicit expressions for the sphere partition functions of (2,2) superconformal field theories. The mirror symmetry conjecture predicts an IR duality between pairs of Abelian gauged linear sigma models, a…
In this paper one proves a special case of a conjecture by Nicolas Bergeron. This conjecture is a kind of automorphic Lefschetz property. It relates the primitive cohomology of a locally symmetric manifolds modeled on $U(p,q+r)$ to the…
The n-dimensional pair of pants is defined to be the complement of n+2 generic hyperplanes in CP^n. We construct an immersed Lagrangian sphere in the pair of pants and compute its endomorphism A_{\infty} algebra in the Fukaya category. On…
We compute the fundamental group of an open Richardson variety in the manifold of complete flags that corresponds to a partial flag manifold. Rietsch showed that these log Calabi-Yau varieties underlie a Landau-Ginzburg mirror for the…
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…
For certain K3 surfaces, there are two constructions of mirror symmetry that are very different. The first, known as BHK mirror symmetry, comes from the Landau-Ginzburg model for the K3 surface; the other, known as LPK3 mirror symmetry, is…
We present a type-independent Landau-Ginzburg (LG) model $(X_\mathrm{can}, \mathcal{W}_\mathrm{can})$ for any cominuscule homogeneous space $X=G/P$. We give a fully combinatorial construction for our superpotential…
We study the integrality properties of the coefficients of the mirror map attached to the generalized hypergeometric function $_{n}F_{n-1}$ with rational parameters and with a maximal unipotent monodromy. We present a conjecture on the…
We examine the physical significance of torsion co-cycles in the cohomology of a projective Calabi-Yau three-fold for the (2,2) superconformal field theory (SCFT) associated to the non-linear sigma model with such a manifold as a target…
This paper explores the relationship between mirror symmetry for P^2, at the level of big quantum cohomology, and tropical geometry. The mirror of P^2 is typically taken to be ((C^*)^2,W), where W is a Landau-Ginzburg potential of the form…
In the early 1990s, Borcea-Voisin orbifolds were some of the ear- liest examples of Calabi-Yau threefolds shown to exhibit mirror symmetry. However, their quantum theory has been poorly investigated. We study this in the context of the…
We investigate the super Landau-Ginzburg mirrors of gauged linear sigma models which, in an appropriate low energy limit, reduce to nonlinear sigma models with Kaehler supermanifold target spaces of nonnegative super-first Chern class.
In this paper we describe some of the constructions of FJRW theory. We also briefly describe its relation to Saito-Givental theory via Landau-Ginzburg mirror symmetry and its relation to Gromov-Witten theory via the…
In the case of toric varieties, we continue the pursuit of Kontsevich's fundamental insight, Homological Mirror Symmetry, by unifying it with the Mori program. We give a refined conjectural version of Homological Mirror Symmetry relating…
