Proof of the existence of a mirror Calabi–Yau manifold
Let $X$ be a Calabi–Yau threefold. Here, Calabi–Yau is understood to a mean a smooth simply connected projective threefold with $h^1(\mathcal{O}_X) = h^2(\mathcal{O}_X)=0$ and holomorphically trivial ...

How many Coulomb branches do we (conjecturally) know?
Physics preamble: Attached to any $3$ or $4$ dimensional SCFT it is expected to be a Poisson variety $\mathcal{M}_C$ called the Coulomb branch. It should admit a symplectic resolution.
Moreover, ...

SYZ conjecture for varieties of general type or Fano
Let $X$ and $Y$ are Calabi-Yau varieties and mirror to each other. Then from HMS the Fukaya Floer category of Lagrangian intersections in $X$, is equivalent to bounded derived category of coherent ...

How do you get the spectral curve from a Calabi-Yau?
In N=2 Quantum Field Theories and Their BPS Quivers by Alim, Cecotti, Córdova, Espahbodi, Rastogi and Vafa the authors give a recipe which constructs from a pair $(C,\phi)$ consisting of a Riemann ...

Line bundles with vanishing cohomology on Calabi-Yau manifold
Suppose we have some line bundle $L(D)$ on Calabi-Yau threefold. Let's call this line bundle "rigid" if $H^0(X,L(D)) \simeq \mathbb{C}$ and $H^i(X,L(D))=0$ for $i=1,2,3$.
Is anything known about such ...

How to construct (another) Landau-Ginzburg model for a compete intersection Calabi-Yau?
For Calabi-Yau variety $X$ which is a complete intersection
$$
f_1=f_2=\ldots=f_r=0
$$
in ${\mathbb P }^n$ (hence $\mathrm{dim}\,X=n-r$) it is possible to construct a Landau-Ginsburg model in the ...

State of the art of BPS and Donaldson-Thomas invariants for toric Calabi-Yau threefolds
I am trying to understand what has been done with regards to computing BPS invariants and Donaldson-Thomas type invariants of Calabi-Yau threefolds. To make the question more focused, let's say that I ...

vector multiplet/hypermultiplet moduli space of String Theory
What is vector multiplet and hypermultiplet moduli space associated to IIA/B string theory (or in general to a N = 2 Supersymmetric theory) ?
The vector multiplet moduli space is special Kahler while ...

Are there non-supersymmetric and/or non-Calabi-Yau topological sigma models?
I am reading some aspects of Mirror Symmetry and in mirror symmetry the $N=2$ SCFT on a Calabi Yau Manifold can be divided into two sectors each of which is a topological sigma model, A-Model and B-...
