In this work we study the topological rings of two dimensional (2,2) and (0,2) hybrid models. In particular, we use localization to derive a formula for the correlators in both cases, focusing on the B- and B/2-twists. Although our methods…
We study half-twisted linear sigma models relevant to (0,2) compactifications of the heterotic string. Focusing on theories with a (2,2) locus, we examine the linear model parameter space and the dependence of genus zero half-twisted…
In this paper, we apply the methods developed in recent work for constructing A-twisted (2,2) Landau-Ginzburg models to analogous (0,2) models. In particular, we study (0,2) Landau-Ginzburg models on topologically non-trivial spaces away…
The moduli spaces of two (0,2) compactifications of the heterotic string can share the same Landau-Ginzburg model even though at large radius they look completely different. It was argued that such a pair of (0,2) models might be connected…
We compute correlators of chiral operators in (0,2) supersymmetric Landau-Ginzburg theories. The class of theories and the correlators we study are relevant for extending and testing mirror symmetry away from the (2,2) locus. More…
We identify the exactly solvable theory of the conformal fixed point of (0,2) Calabi-Yau sigma-models and their Landau-Ginzburg phases. To this end we consider a number of (0,2) models constructed from a particular (2,2) exactly solvable…
In this note we make an attempt to compare a cohomological theory of Hilbert spaces of ground states in the ${\cal N}=(2,2)$ 2d Landau-Ginzburg theory in models describing link embeddings in ${\mathbb{R}}^3$ to Khovanov and…
We study orbifolds of (0,2) models, including some cases with discrete torsion. Our emphasis is on models which have a Landau-Ginzburg realization, where we describe part of the massless spectrum by computing the elliptic genus for the…
Let V be a holomorphic bundle over a complex manifold M, and s be a holomorphic section of V. We study different types of cohomology associated to the Koszul complex induced by s. When M is complete, these cohomologies are isomorphic to…
We develop techniques to compute the complete the massless spectrum in heterotic string compactification on N=2 supersymmetric Landau-Ginzburg orbifolds. This includes not just the familiar charged fields, but also the gauge singlets. The…
In this paper we develop a graded tilting theory for gauged Landau-Ginzburg models of regular sections in vector bundles over projective varieties. Our main theoretical result describes - under certain conditions - the bounded derived…
In this paper we study the low energy physics of Landau-Ginzburg models with N=(0,2) supersymmetry. We exhibit a number of classes of relatively simple LG models where the conformal field theory at the low energy fixed point can be…
Several aspects of (0,2) Landau-Ginzburg orbifolds are investigated. Especially the elliptic genera are computed in general and, for a class of models recently invented by Distler and Kachru, they are compared with the ones from (0,2) sigma…
Let X be a non-compact Calabi-Yau manifold and f be a holomorphic function on X with compact critical locus. We introduce the notion of f-twisted Sobolev spaces for the pair (X,f) and prove the corresponding Hodge-to-de Rham degeneration…
In this paper we prove that if G is a connected, simply-connected, semi-simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of sufficiently large characteristic, then all the blocks of the restricted enveloping algebra (Ug)_0 of the…
We describe rules for computing a homology theory of knots and links in $\mathbb{R}^3$. It is derived from the theory of framed BPS states bound to domain walls separating two-dimensional Landau-Ginzburg models with (2,2) supersymmetry. We…
We compute the Poincare polynomial and the cohomology algebra with rational coefficeints of the manifold M_n of real points of the moduli space of algebraic curves of genus 0 with n labeled points. This cohomology is a quadratic algebra,…
We study the structure of mod 2 cohomology rings of oriented Grassmannians $\tilde{\operatorname{Gr}}_k(n)$ of oriented $k$-planes in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Our main focus is on the structure of the cohomology ring ${\rm…
We construct dual descriptions of (0,2) gauged linear sigma models. In some cases, the dual is a (0,2) Landau-Ginzburg theory, while in other cases, it is a non-linear sigma model. The duality map defines an analogue of mirror symmetry for…
Let $(R, \mathfrak m)$ denote an $n$-dimensional Gorenstein ring. For an ideal $I \subset R$ of height $c$ we are interested in the endomorphism ring $B = \Hom_R(H^c_I(R), H^c_I(R)).$ It turns out that $B$ is a commutative ring. In the case…
