G 2 Manifolds , Mirror Symmetry and Geometric Engineering
We construct Calabi-Yau geometries with wrapped D6 branes which realize N = 1 supersymmetric A r quiver theories, and study the corresponding geometric transitions. This also yields new large N dualities for topological strings generalizing topological strings/large N Chern-Simons duality. Lifting up to M-theory yields smooth quantum geometric transitions without branes or fluxes, in the contex...
متن کاملMirror Symmetry and Self-dual Manifolds
We introduce self-dual manifolds and show that they can be used to encode mirror symmetry for affine-Kähler manifolds and for elliptic curves. Their geometric properties, especially the link with special lagrangian fibrations and the existence of a transformation similar to the Fourier-Mukai functor, suggest that this approach may be able to explain mirror symmetry also in other situations.
متن کاملSelf-dual Manifolds and Mirror Symmetry for the Quintic Threefold
For all m ≥ 1 we build a two-dimensional family of smooth manifolds of real dimension 3m + 2 and use it to interpolate between the anticanonical family in CP and its mirror dual. The main tool is the notion of self-dual manifold.
متن کاملConnected Sums of Self-dual Manifolds and Equivariant Relative Smoothings
Recall that a conformal 4-manifold is called self-dual if its Weyl curvature, considered as a bundle valued 2-form, is in the +1 eigenspace of the Hodge star-operator [1]. Due to Schoen’s proof [19] of the Yamabe conjecture it is known that within any conformal class on a compact manifold is a metric whose scalar curvature is constant and the sign of this constant is a conformal invariant. The ...
متن کاملTwistor spaces, mirror symmetry and self-dual Kähler manifolds
We present the evidence for two conjectures related to the twistor string. The first conjecture states that two super-Calabi Yaus – the supertwistor space and the superambitwistor space – form a mirror pair. The second conjecture is that the B-model on the twistor space can be seen as describing a 4-dimensional gravitational theory, whose partition function should involve a sum over “space-time...
