A Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau Correspondence for the mirror quintic |
Abstract |
The LG/CY correspondence was conjectured by physicists nearly twenty years ago, but has not received much attention until recently when Chiodo-Ruan proved the LG/CY correspondence for the quintic threefold. I will describe recent work joint with Mark Shoemaker in which we prove a version of the LG/CY correspondence for the mirror quintic. |
