Mirror symmetric Gamma conjecture for toric GIT quotients via Fourier transform

Let $\mathcal X=[(\mathbb C^r\setminus Z)/G]$ be a toric Fano orbifold. We compute the Fourier transform of the $G$-equivariant quantum cohomology central charge of any $G$-equivariant line bundle on $\mathbb C^r$ with respect to certain choice of parameters. This gives the quantum cohomology central charge of the corresponding line bundle on $\mathcal X$, while in the oscillatory integral expression it becomes the oscillatory integral in the mirror Landau-Ginzburg mirror of $\mathcal X$. Moving these parameters to real numbers simultaneously deforms the integration cycle to the mirror Lagrangian cycle of that line bundle. This computation produces a new proof the mirror symmetric Gamma conjecture for $\mathcal X$.

Open/closed Correspondence and Extended LG/CY Correspondence for Quintic Threefolds

We show that Walcher's disk potential for the quintic threefold can be represented as a central charge of a specific Gauged Linear Sigma Model which we call the extended quintic GLSM. This representation provides an open/closed correspondence for the quintic threefold since the central charge is a generating function of closed genus-zero GLSM invariants. We also explain how open Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau correspondence and open mirror symmetry for the quintic are compatible with wall-crossing and mirror symmetry of the extended GLSM, respectively.

Higgs-Coulomb correspondence and Wall-Crossing in abelian GLSMs

We compute I-functions and central charges for abelian GLSMs using virtual matrix factorizations of Favero and Kim. In the Calabi-Yau case we provide analytic continuation for the central charges by explicit integral formulas. The integrals in question are called hemisphere partition functions and we call the integral representation Higgs-Coulomb correspondence. We then use it to prove GIT stability wall-crossing for central charges.

Wall-crossing for K-theoretic quasimap invariants I

We study K-theoretic GLSM invariants with one-dimensional gauge group and introduce elliptic central charges that depend on an elliptic cohomology class called an elliptic brane and a choice of level structure. These central charges have an integral representation related to an interpolation problem for the elliptic brane and satisfy natural q-difference equations. Integral representaions lead to the wall crossing statement for the central charges in two different phases of the GLSM. We explain how the orbifold structure leads to differences between wall crossing of the usual (K-theoretic) and elliptic central charges.

GLSM for Calabi-Yau Manifolds of Berglund-Hubsch Type

In this note we briefly present the results of our computation of special Kähler geometry for polynomial deformations of Berglund-Hübsch type Calabi-Yau manifolds. We also build mirror symmetric Gauge Linear Sigma Model and check that its partition function computed by Supersymmetric localization coincides with exponent of the Kähler potential of the special metric.

Primitive Forms without Higher Residue Structure and Integrable Hierarchies (I)

We introduce primitive forms with or without higher residue structure and explore their connection with the flat structures with or without a metric and integrable hierarchies of KdV type. Just as the classical case of primitive forms with metric arXiv:1311.1659, the primitive forms without metrics are constructed as the positive part of the Birkhoff decomposition of formal oscillatory integrals with respect to the descendent variable. The oscilating integrals of a primitive form without metric give rise to a hierarchy of commuting PDE of the KdV type as in the case of primitive forms with metric. This shall be studied in (II).

JKLMR conjecture and Batyrev construction

We study a mirror interpretation of the relation between the exact partition functions of N=(2,2) gauged linear sigma-models (GLSM) on the 2d sphere and Kahler potentials on the moduli spaces of the CY manifolds proposed by Jockers et al. We use the Batyrev mirror construction for establishing the explicit relation between GLSM and the corresponding mirror family of the Calabi-Yau manifolds, defined as hypersurfaces in weighted projective spaces. We demonstrate how to do this by the explicit calculation in the case of the quintic threefold and its mirror.

Open minimal strings and open Gelfand-Dickey hierarchies

We study the connection between minimal Liouville string theory and generalized open KdV hierarchies. We are interested in generalizing Douglas string equation formalism to the open topology case. We show that combining the results of the closed topology, based on the Frobenius manifold structure and resonance transformations, with the appropriate open case modification, which requires the insertion of macroscopic loop operators, we reproduce the well-known result for the expectation value of a bulk operator for the FZZT brane coupled to the general (q,p) minimal model. The matching of the results of the two setups gives new evidence of the connection between minimal Liouville gravity and the theory of Topological Gravity.

Special geometry on the 101 dimesional moduli space of the quintic threefold

A new method for explicit computation of the CY moduli space metric was proposed by the authors recently. The method makes use of the connection of the moduli space with a certain Frobenius algebra. Here we clarify this approach and demonstrate its efficiency by computing the Special geometry of the 101-dimensional moduli space of the quintic threefold around the orbifold point.

Special geometry on the moduli space for the two-moduli non-Fermat Calabi-Yau

We clarify the recently proposed method to compute a Special Kähler metric on a Calabi-Yau complex structures moduli space that uses the fact that the moduli space is a subspace of specific Frobenius manifold. We apply this method to computing the Special Kähler metric in a two-moduli non-Fermat model which has been unknown until now.

A new approach for computing the geometry of the moduli spaces for a Calabi-Yau manifold

It is known that moduli spaces of Calabi-Yau (CY) manifolds are special Kähler manifolds. This structure determines the corresponding low-energy effective theory which arises in superstring compactifications on CY manifolds. In the case, where CY manifold is given as a hypersurface in the weighted projective space, we propose a new procedure for computing the Kähler potential of the moduli space. Our method is based on the fact that the moduli space of CY manifolds is a marginal subspace of the Frobenius manifold which arises on the deformation space of the corresponding Landau--Ginzburg superpotential.

Minimal gravity and Frobenius manifolds: bulk correlation on sphere and disk

There are two alternative approaches to the minimal gravity - direct Liouville approach and matrix models. Recently there has been a certain progress in the matrix model approach, growing out of presence of a Frobenius manifold (FM) structure embedded in the theory. The previous studies were mainly focused on the spherical topology. Essentially, it was shown that the action principle of Douglas equation allows to define the free energy and to compute the correlation numbers if the resonance transformations are properly incorporated. The FM structure allows to find the explicit form of the resonance transformation as well as the closed expression for the partition function. In this paper we elaborate on the case of gravitating disk. We focus on the bulk correlators and show that in the similar way as in the closed topology the generating function can be formulated using the set of flat coordinates on the corresponding FM. Moreover, the resonance transformations, which follow from the spherical topology consideration, are exactly those needed to reproduce FZZ result of the Liouville gravity approach.

On the construction of the correlation numbers in Minimal Liouville Gravity

The computation of the correlation numbers in Minimal Liouville Gravity involves an integration over moduli spaces of complex curves. There are two independent approaches to the calculation: the direct one, based on the CFT methods and Liouville higher equations of motion, and the alternative one, motivated by discrete description of 2D gravity and based on the Douglas string equation. However these two approaches give rise to the results that are not always consistent among themselves. In this paper we explore this problem. We show that in order to reconcile two methods the so-called discrete terms in the operator product expansion in the underlying Liouville theory must be properly taken into account. In this way we propose modified version of the expression for four-point correlation number and find full agreement between direct and alternative approaches. Our result allows to consider correlators without any restrictions on the number of conformal blocks contributing to the matter sector correlation function.
