Mirror Symmetry and Strange Duality

چکیده
1. Mirror symmetry Superstring theory and conformal eld theory has developed and was connected with algebraic geometry in the late 80's. The mirror symmetry, which implies a kind of symmetry of moduli space of Calabi-Yau varieties, is one of the most striking blows from superconformal eld theory. Since there are numerous papers available in this subject now, we will just follow the story and refer the readers to, for example, [M1][HKT][Si] and papers in [Y] for technical details and references.

Strange duality, mirror symmetry, and the Leech lattice
We give a survey on old and new results concerning Arnold’s strange duality. We show that most of the features of this duality continue to hold for the extension of it discovered by C. T. C. Wall and the author. The results include relations to mirror symmetry and the Leech lattice.
متن کاملDuality of Weights, Mirror Symmetry and Arnold’s Strange Duality
Introduction. The hypersurfaces in weighted projective spaces often appear as important examples in the context of mirror symmetry. In this paper, we describe the relation between polar duality and duality of weight systems. The duality of weights partly suggests why [CLS] produced a mirror symmetric phenomena using only a resolution of weighted hypersurface in weighted P. In fact, recently it ...
متن کاملFjrw-rings and Landau-ginzburg Mirror Symmetry
Abstract. In this article, we study the Berglund–Hübsch transpose construction W T for invertible quasihomogeneous potential W . We introduce the dual group G and establish the state space isomorphism between the Fan–Jarvis–Ruan–Witten A-model of W/G and the orbifold Milnor ring B-model of W T /G . Furthermore, we prove a mirror symmetry theorem at the level of Frobenius algebra structure for G...
متن کاملMirror Symmetry, Kobayashi's Duality, and Saito's Duality
M. Kobayashi introduced a notion of duality of weight systems. We tone this notion slightly down to a notion called coupling. We show that coupling induces a relation between the reduced zeta functions of the monodromy operators of the corresponding singularities generalizing an observation of K. Saito concerning Arnold's strange duality. We show that the weight systems of the mirror symmetric ...
متن کاملStrange duality and polar duality
We describe a relation between Arnold’s strange duality and a polar duality between the Newton polytopes which is mostly due to M. Kobayashi. We show that this relation continues to hold for the extension of Arnold’s strange duality found by C. T. C. Wall and the author. By a method of Ehlers-Varchenko, the characteristic polynomial of the monodromy of a hypersurface singularity can be computed...
