Attractor mechanisms of moduli spaces of Calabi-Yau 3-folds
Abstract
We investigate the complex and K\"ahler attractor mechanisms of moduli spaces of Calabi-Yau 3-folds. The complex attractor mechanism was previously studied by Ferrara-Kallosh-Strominger, Moore and others in string theory. It is concerned with the minimizing problems of the normalized central charges of 3-cycles and defines a new interesting class of Calabi-Yau 3-folds called, the complex attractor varieties. In light of mirror symmetry, we introduce the K\"ahler attractor mechanism and define the K\"ahler attractor varieties. The complex and K\"ahler attractor varieties are expected to possess very rich structures, in particular certain complex and K\"ahler rigidities.
