Topological LG Models Coupled to Gravity and Mirror Symmetry

چکیده
In this paper, we will describe the mathematical foundation of topological Landau–Ginzburg (LG) models coupled to gravity at genus 0 in terms of primitive forms. In particular, we can give a natural explanation for the large phase space. We also discuss the mirror symmetry for Calabi–Yau manifolds and CP1 in our context. We see that the mirror partner of CP1 is the theory of primitive form associated to f = z + qz−

Planar Homological Mirror Symmetry
In this article, we formulate a planar limited version of the B-side in homological mirror symmetry that formularizes Chern-Simons-type topological open string field theory using homotopy associative algebra (A∞ algebra). This formulation is based on the works by Dijkgraaf and Vafa. We show that our formularization includes gravity/gauge theory correspondence which originates in the AdS/CFT dua...
متن کاملTopological Mirrors and Quantum Rings
Aspects of duality and mirror symmetry in string theory are discussed. We emphasize, through examples, the importance of loop spaces for a deeper understanding of the geometrical origin of dualities in string theory. Moreover we show that mirror symmetry can be reformulated in very simple terms as the statement of equivalence of two classes of topological theories: Topological sigma models and ...
متن کاملA Topological Model for Two-dimensional Gravity Coupled to Matter
Starting from a topological gauge theory in two dimensions with symmetry groups ISO(2, 1), SO(2, 1) and SO(1, 2) we construct a model for gravity with non-trivial coupling to matter. We discuss the equations of motion which are connected to those of previous related models but incorporate matter content. We also discuss the resulting quantum theory and finally present explicit formulæ for topol...
متن کاملN=2 String Geometry and the Heavenly Equations
In this paper we survey some of the relations between Plebański description of self-dual gravity through the heavenly equations and the physics (and mathematics) of N = 2 Strings. In particular we focus on the correspondence between the infinite hierarchy in the ground ring structure of BRST operators and its associated Boyer-Plebański construction of infinite conserved quantities in self-dual ...

We discuss the properties of genus-0 correlation functions of a topological minimal model (the model Ak+1) coupled to 2d topological gravity. The action of the twisted minimal model is perturbed by non-trivial couplings to gravitational descendants, which, in turn, are constructed entirely from the fields in the matter sector of the theory. We develop an explicit formulation, in terms of orthog...
