We introduce a duality construction for toric Landau-Ginzburg models, applicable to complete intersections in toric varieties via the sigma model / Landau-Ginzburg model correspondence. This construction is shown to reconstruct those of Batyrev-Borisov, Berglund-H"ubsch, Givental, and Hori-Vafa. It can be done in more general situations, and provides partial resolutions when the above constructions give a singular mirror. An extended example is given: the Landau-Ginzburg models dual to elliptic curves in (P^1)^2 .
For a toric Fano manifold $X$ denote by $Crit(X) \subset (\mathbb{C}^{\ast})^n$ the solution scheme of the Landau-Ginzburg system of equations of $X$. Examples of toric Fano manifolds with $rk(Pic(X)) \leq 3$ which admit full strongly exceptional collections of line bundles were recently found by various authors. For these examples we construct a map $E : Crit(X) \rightarrow Pic(X)$ whose image $\mathcal{E}=\left \{ E(z) \vert z \in Crit(X) \right \}$ is a full strongly exceptional collection satisfying the M-aligned property. That is, under this map, the groups $Hom(E(z),E(w))$ for $z,w \in C…
Toric Landau--Ginzburg models of Givental's type for Fano complete intersections are known to have Calabi--Yau compactifications. We give an alternative proof of this fact. As an output of our proof we get a description of fibers over infinity for compactified toric Landau--Ginzburg models.
We show that every rank one smooth Fano threefold has a weak Landau-Ginzburg model coming from a toric degeneration. The fibers of these Landau-Ginzburg models can be compactified to K3 surfaces with Picard lattice of rank 19. We also show that any smooth Fano variety of arbitrary dimension which is a complete intersection of Cartier divisors in weighted projective space has a very weak Landau-Ginzburg model coming from a toric degeneration.
We prove that smooth Fano threefolds have toric Landau--Ginzburg models. More precise, we prove that their Landau--Ginzburg models, presented as Laurent polynomials, admit compactifications to families of K3 surfaces, and we describe their fibers over infinity. We also give an explicit construction of Landau--Ginzburg models for del Pezzo surfaces and any divisors on them.
We establish a new relationship (the MLK correspondence) between twisted FJRW theory and local Gromov-Witten theory in all genera. As a consequence, we show that the Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau correspondence is implied by the crepant transformation conjecture for Fermat type in genus zero. We use this to then prove the Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau correspondence for Fermat type, generalizing the results of A. Chiodo and Y. Ruan.
We discuss the behavior of Landau-Ginzburg models for toric orbifolds near the large volume limit. This enables us to express mirror symmetry as an isomorphism of Frobenius manifolds which aquire logarithmic poles along a boundary divisor. If the toric orbifold admits a crepant resolution we construct a global moduli space on the B-side and show that the associated tt^*-geometry exists globally.
This is a review of the theory of toric Landau-Ginzburg models - the effective approach to mirror symmetry for Fano varieties. We mainly focus on the cases of dimensions 2 and 3, as well as on the case of complete intersections in weighted projective spaces and Grassmannians. Conjectures that relate invariants of Fano varieties and their Landau--Ginzburg models, such as Katzarkov-Kontsevich-Pantev conjectures, are also studied.
For an appropriate class of Fano complete intersections in toric varieties, we prove that there is a concrete relationship between degenerations to specific toric subvarieties and expressions for Givental's Landau-Ginzburg models as Laurent polynomials. As a result, we show that Fano varieties presented as complete intersections in partial flag manifolds admit degenerations to Gorenstein toric weak Fano varieties, and their Givental Landau-Ginzburg models can be expressed as corresponding Laurent polynomials. We also use this to show that all of the Laurent polynomials obtained by Coates, Kasp…
Given a Fano complete intersection defined by sections of a collection nef line bundles $L_1,\ldots, L_c$ on a Fano toric manifold $Y$, a construction of Givental/Hori-Vafa provides a mirror-dual Landau-Ginzburg model. This construction depends on a choice of suitable nef partition; that is, a partition of the rays of the fan determined by $Y$. We show that toric Landau-Ginzburg models constructed from different nef partitions representing the same complete intersection are related by a volume preserving birational map. In particular, various Laurent polynomial mirrors which may be obtained fr…
Given any equivariant coherent sheaf $\mathcal L$ on a compact semi-positive toric orbifold $\mathcal X$, its SYZ T-dual mirror dual is a Lagrangian brane in the Landau-Ginzburg mirror. We prove the oscillatory integral of the equivariant superpotential in the Landau Ginzburg mirror over this Lagrangian brane is the genus-zero $1$-descendant Gromov-Witten potential with a Gamma-type class of $\mathcal L$ inserted.
We prove a version of the Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau correspondence for the mirror quintic. In particular we calculate the genus-zero FJRW theory for the pair (W, G) where W is the Fermat quintic polynomial and G = SL(W). We identify it with the Gromov-Witten theory of the mirror quintic three-fold via an explicit analytic continuation and symplectic transformation. In the process we prove a mirror theorem for the corresponding Landau-Ginzburg model (W,G).
We establish a genus zero correspondence between the equivariant Gromov-Witten theory of the Deligne-Mumford stack $[\mathbb{C}^N/G]$ and its blowup at the origin. The relationship generalizes the crepant transformation conjecture of Coates-Iritani-Tseng and Coates-Ruan to the discrepant (non-crepant) setting using asymptotic expansion. Using this result together with quantum Serre duality and the MLK correspondence we prove LG/Fano and LG/general type correspondences for hypersurfaces.
In this paper we prove an analogue of the McKay correspondence for Landau-Ginzburg models. Our proof is based on the ideas introduced by T. Bridgeland, A. King and M. Reid, which reformulate and generalize the McKay correspondence in the language of derived categories, along with the techniques introduced by J.-C. Chen.
In this paper, we study the bigraded vector space structure of Landau-Ginzburg orbifolds. We prove the formula for the generating function of the Hodge numbers of possibly nonabelian Landau-Ginzburg orbifolds. As an application, we calculate the Hodge numbers for all nondegenerate quintic homogeneous polynomials with five variables. These results yield an evidence for the Calabi-Yau/Landau-Ginzburg correspondence between the Calabi-Yau geometries and the Landau-Ginzburg B-models.
We conjecture that the number of components of the fiber over infinity of Landau--Ginzburg model for a smooth Fano variety $X$ equals the dimension of the anticanonical system of $X$. We verify this conjecture for log Calabi--Yau compactifications of toric Landau--Ginzburg models for smooth Fano threefolds, complete intersections, and some toric varieties.
We consider the conjectures from the paper by Katzarkov, Kontsevich, and Pantev about Landau-Ginzburg Hodge numbers associated to tamely compactifiable Landau-Ginzburg models. We test these conjectures in case of dimension two, verifying some and giving a counterexample to the other.
In this paper, we describe explicit relations in the symplectomorphism groups of toric hypersurfaces. To define the elements involved, we construct a proper stack of toric hypersurfaces with compactifying boundary representing toric hypersurface degenerations. Our relations arise through the study of the one dimensional strata of this stack. The results are then examined from the perspective of homological mirror symmetry where we view sequences of relations as maximal degenerations of Landau-Ginzburg models. We then study the B-model mirror to these degenerations, which gives a new mirror sym…

We study the possibility of constructing a Frobenius manifold for the standard Landau-Ginzburg model of odd-dimensional quadrics $Q_{2n+1}$ and matching it with the Frobenius manifold attached to the quantum cohomology of these quadrics. Namely, we show that the initial conditions of the quantum cohomology Frobenius manifold of the quadric can be obtained from the suitably modified standard Landau-Ginzburg model.
We study the Hodge numbers of Landau-Ginzburg models as defined by Katzarkov, Kontsevich and Pantev. First we show that these numbers can be computed using ordinary mixed Hodge theory, then we give a concrete recipe for computing these numbers for the Landau-Ginzburg mirrors of Fano threefolds. We finish by proving that for a crepant resolution of a Gorenstein toric Fano threefold $X$ there is a natural LG mirror $(Y,\mathsf{w})$ so that $h^{p,q}(X) = f^{3-q,p}(Y,\mathsf{w})$.
The Landau-Ginzburg B-model for a germ of a holomorphic function with an isolated critical point is constructed by K. Saito and finished by M. Saito. Douai and Sabbah construct the Landau-Ginzburg B-models for some Laurent polynomials. The construction relies on analytic procedures, and one can not expect it can be done by purely algebraic method. In this note, we work out the l-adic realization of the algebraic part of the construction.
We construct Landau-Ginzburg models for numerically effective complete intersections in toric manifolds as partial compactifications of families of Laurent polynomials. We show a mirror statement saying that the quantum D-module of the ambient part of the cohomology of the submanifold is isomorphic to an intersection cohomology D-module defined from this partial compactification and we deduce Hodge properties of these differential systems.
P. Clarke describes mirror symmetry as a duality between Landau--Ginzburg models, so that the dual of an LG model is another LG model. We describe examples in which the underlying space is a total space of a vector bundle on the projective line, and we show that self-duality occurs in precisely two cases: the cotangent bundle and the resolved conifold.
We give criteria for the existence of a Serre functor on the derived category of a gauged Landau-Ginzburg model. This is used to provide a general theorem on the existence of an admissible (fractional) Calabi-Yau subcategory of a gauged Landau-Ginzburg model and a geometric context for crepant categorical resolutions. We explicitly describe our framework in the toric setting. As a consequence, we generalize several theorems and examples of Orlov and Kuznetsov, ending with new examples of semi-orthogonal decompositions containing (fractional) Calabi-Yau categories.
This paper reviews results and techniques from the authors' previous work "Symplectomorphism group relations and degenerations of Landau-Ginzburg models" and applies them in basic examples. The main example is the $A_n$ category where we observe a relationship to stability conditions and directed quiver representations. We conclude with a brief survey of applications to the birational geometry of del Pezzo surfaces.
We present some mathematical aspects of Landau-Ginzburg string vacua in terms of toric geometry. The one-to-one correspondence between toric divisors and some of (-1,1) states in Landau-Ginzburg model is presented for superpotentials of typical types. The Landau-Ginzburg interpretation of non-toric divisors is also presented. Using this interpretation, we propose a method to solve the so-called "twisted sector problem" by orbifold construction. Moreover,this construction shows that the moduli spaces of the original Landau-Ginzburg string vacua and their orbifolds are connected. By considering …
This paper is an introduction to D-branes in Landau-Ginzburg models and Homological Mirror Symmetry. The paper is based on a series of lectures which were given on Second Latin Congress on Symmetries in Geometry and Physics that took place at the University of Curitiba, Brazil in December 2010.
We summarize the description of the open-closed TFT datum for B-type Landau-Ginzburg models with Stein manifold targets and discuss various constructions which lead to large classes of examples of such models.
The Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau correspondence claims that the Gromov-Witten invariant of the quintic Calabi-Yau 3-fold should be related to the Fan-Jarvis-Ruan-Witten invariant of the associated Landau-Ginzburg model via wall crossings. In this paper, we consider the stack of quasi-maps with a cosection and introduce sequences of stability conditions which enable us to interpolate between the moduli stack for Gromov-Witten invariants and the moduli stack for Fan-Jarvis-Ruan-Witten invariants.
We prove the Landau-Ginzburg mirror symmetry conjecture between invertible quasi-homogeneous polynomial singularities at all genera. That is, we show that the FJRW theory (LG A-model) of such a polynomial is equivalent to the Saito-Givental theory (LG B-model) of the mirror polynomial.
In this paper we prove an existence of some type of equivalences between triangulated categories of singularities for varieties of different dimensions. This class of equivalences generalizes so called Knörrer periodicity. As consequence we get equivalences between categories of D-branes of type B on Landau-Ginzburg models of different dimensions.
Let V and F be holomorphic bundles over a complex manifold M, and s be a holomorphic section of V. We study the cohomology associated to the Koszul complex induced by s, and prove a generalized Serre duality theorem for them.
We interpret the Landau-Ginzburg potentials associated to Gross-Hacking-Keel-Kontsevich's partial compactifications of cluster varieties as F-polynomials of projective representations of Jacobian algebras. Along the way, we show that both the projective and the injective representations of Jacobi-finite quivers with potential are well-behaved under Derksen-Weyman-Zelevinsky's mutations of representations.
In this paper we prove the smoothness of the moduli space of Landau-Ginzburg models. We formulate and prove a Tian-Todorov theorem for the deformations of Landau-Ginzburg models, develop the necessary Hodge theory for varieties with potentials, and prove a double degeneration statement needed for the unobstructedness result. We discuss the various definitions of Hodge numbers for non-commutative Hodge structures of Landau-Ginzburg type and the role they play in mirror symmetry. We also interpret the resulting families of de Rham complexes attacted to a potential in terms of mirror symmetry for…
