We construct compact examples of D-manifolds for type IIB strings. The construction has a natural interpretation in terms of compactification of a 12 dimensional `F-theory'. We provide evidence for a more natural reformulation of type IIB…

The dually flat structure introduced by Amari-Nagaoka is highlighted in information geometry and related fields. In practical applications, however, the underlying pseudo-Riemannian metric may often be degenerate, and such an excellent…

With the aid of the theory of Jordan triple systems, we construct an explicit bi-symplectomorphism between a Hermitian symmetric space of non-compact type and $\C^n$ equipped with both the flat Kaehler-form and the Fubini-Study form. Our…

In this work we review a systematic, algorithmic construction of dual heterotic/F-theory geometries corresponding to 4-dimensional, N = 1 supersymmetric compactifications. We look in detail at a class of well-defined Calabi-Yau fourfolds…

The structure of a Frobenius manifold encodes the geometry associated with a flat pencil of metrics. However, as shown in the authors' earlier work, much of the structure comes from the compatibility properties of the pencil rather than…

In arXiv:1711.05958, arXiv:2103.12673, the authors derive one-dimensional Landau-Ginzburg mirrors of Dubrovin-Zhang Frobenius manifolds constructed on regular orbit spaces of an extension of affine Weyl groups. We generalise the method…

In order to understand both up-type and down-type Yukawa couplings, F-theory is a better framework than the perturbative Type IIB string theory. The duality between the Heterotic and F-theory is a powerful tool in gaining more insights into…

Bandyopadhyay, Dacorogna, Matveev and Troyanov conjectured that a closed manifold admitting a flat, non-negative definite metric of constant rank $m$ should be finitely covered by a fiber bundle over the $m$-torus. We give a counter-example…

Let $\mathcal V$ be a discrete valuation ring of mixed characteristic with perfect residue field. Let $X$ be a geometrically connected smooth proper curve over $\mathcal V$. We introduce the notion of constructible convergent…

We study electric-magnetic duality in compactifications of M-theory on twisted connected sum (TCS) $G_2$ manifolds via duality with F-theory. Specifically, we study the physics of the D3-branes in F-theory compactified on a Calabi-Yau…

We construct an action of a free resolution of the Frobenius properad on the differential forms of a closed oriented manifold. As a consequence, the forms of a manifold with values in a semi-simple Lie algebra have an additional structure…

We study the duality between M-theory on compact holonomy G2-manifolds and the heterotic string on Calabi-Yau three-folds. The duality is studied for K3-fibered G2-manifolds, called twisted connected sums, which lend themselves to an…

In order to produce a low energy effective field theory from a string model, it is necessary to specify a vacuum state. In order that this vacuum be supersymmetric, it is well known that all field expectation values must be along so-called…

It was shown in \cite{DVV} for $2d$ topological Conformal field theory (TCFT) \cite{EY,W} and more recently in \cite{BSZ}-\cite{BB2} for the non-critical String theory \cite{P}-\cite{BAlZ} that a number of models of these two types can be…

We introduce a structure of an infinite-dimensional Frobenius manifold on a subspace in the space of pairs of functions analytic inside/outside the unit circle with simple poles at 0/infinity respectively. The dispersionless 2D Toda…

We develop a perturbative algorithm for constructing formal flat $F$-manifold structures on the cohomologies of dGBV (differential Gerstenhaber-Batalin-Vilkovisky) algebras associated with Landau-Ginzburg models. As an application, this…

We give a conjugacy relation on certain type of Frobenius manifold structures using the theory of flat pencils of metrics. It leads to a geometric interpretation for the inversion symmetry of solutions to Witten-Dijkgraaf-Verlinde-Verlinde…

We present an ansatz which enables us to construct heterotic/M-theory dual pairs in four dimensions. It is checked that this ansatz reproduces previous results and that the massless spectra of the proposed dual pairs agree. The new dual…

Under heterotic/F-theory duality it was argued that a wide class of heterotic five-branes is mapped into the geometry of an F-theory compactification manifold. In four-dimensional compactifications this identifies a five-brane wrapped on a…

The notion of a Hom-Leibniz bialgebra is introduced and it is shown that matched pairs of Hom-Leibniz algebras, Manin triples of Hom-Leibniz algebras and Hom-Leibniz bialgebras are equivalent in a certain sense. The notion of Hom-Leibniz…
