چکیده
We compute the number of rational quartics on a general Calabi-Yau hypersurface in weighted projective space P(2, 1). The result agrees with the prediction made by mirror symmetry.

Motives and Mirror Symmetry for Calabi–yau Orbifolds
We consider certain families of Calabi–Yau orbifolds and their mirror partners constructed from Fermat hypersurfaces in weighted projective 4-spaces. Our focus is the topological mirror symmetry. There are at least three known ingredients to describe the topological mirror symmetry, namely, integral vertices in reflexive polytopes, monomials in graded polynomial rings (with some group actions),...
متن کاملBlack Hole Condensation and the Web of Calabi - Yau Manifolds †
We review recent work concerning topology changing phase transitions through black hole condensation in Type II string theory. We then also briefly describe a present study aimed at extending the known web of interconnections between Calabi-Yau manifolds. We show, for instance, that all 7555 Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in weighted projective four space are mathematically connected by extremal tran...
متن کاملQuotients of Hypersurfaces in Weighted Projective Space
In [1] some quotients of one-parameter families of Calabi-Yau varieties are related to the family of Mirror Quintics by using a construction due to Shioda. In this paper, we generalize this construction to a wider class of varieties. More specifically, let A be an invertible matrix with non-negative integer entries. We introduce varieties XA and MA in weighted projective space and in P, respect...
متن کاملMirror Symmetry and Supermanifolds
We develop techniques for obtaining the mirror of Calabi-Yau supermanifolds as super Landau-Ginzburg theories. In some cases the dual can be equivalent to a geometry. We apply this to some examples. In particular we show that the mirror of the twistorial Calabi-Yau CP becomes equivalent to a quadric in CP×CP as had been recently conjectured (in the limit where the Kähler parameter of CP, t → ±∞...
متن کاملOn the Connectedness of the Moduli Space of Calabi–Yau Manifolds
We show that the moduli space of all Calabi–Yau manifolds that can be realized as hypersurfaces described by a transverse polynomial in a four dimensional weighted projective space, is connected. This is achieved by exploiting techniques of toric geometry and the construction of Batyrev that relate Calabi–Yau manifolds to reflexive polyhedra. Taken together with the previously known fact that t...
