Mirror partners of some Calabi-Yau threefolds

I don't have experience in mirror symmetry, hence I am not sure that my question is of research level. Sorry in advance. Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $\neq 2, 3$. ...

Am I missing something about this notion of Mirror Symmetry for abelian varieties?

This is a continuation of my recent question: Mirror symmetry for polarized abelian surfaces and Shioda-Inose K3s. In the comments of the question, I was directed to the paper http://arxiv.org/abs/...

How is the propagator computed on an elliptic curve?

I've been struggling for a while now understanding why the propagator for the action $$ S(\varphi) = \int_E \partial \varphi \bar\partial\varphi + \frac{\lambda}{6}(\partial\varphi)^3 $$ on an ...

Mirror symmetry for elliptic curves

Lets $E_{\tau}^{\rho}$ be the elliptic curve with complex structure given by $\tau$ in upper half plane and complexified Kahler form $\rho \frac{dz\wedge d\bar{z}}{2}$.( $\rho$ is in upper half plane ...

compute the Kähler moduli of an elliptic curve

Say given elliptic curve $ \{ (x,y) | y^2 = (x^2-1)(x^2-k^2) \}$, what is the right form of the K$\ddot{a}$hler form and how to compute the K$\ddot{a}$hler moduli of this elliptic curve? Thank you.
