CiNii 図書 - Mirror symmetry

Mirror symmetry has undergone dramatic progress since the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute (MSRI) workshop in 1991, whose proceedings constitute volume I of this continuing collection. Tremendous insight has been gained on a number of key issues and this volume surveys these results. The areas covered are organized into four sections, and each presents papers by both physicists and mathematicians.

内容説明

This volume is an updated edition of "Essays on Mirror Manifolds", the first book of papers published after the phenomenon of mirror symmetry was discovered. The two major groups who made the discovery reported their papers here. Greene, Plesser and Candelas gave details on their findings; Witten gave his interpretation which was vital for future development; Vafa introduced the concept of quantum cohomology and several mathematicians, including Katz, Morrison, Wilson, Roan, Tian, Hubsch, Yau and Borcea discussed current knowledge about Calabi-Yau manifolds. Ferrara and his co-authors addressed special geometry and $N=2$ supergravity and Rocek proposed possible mirrors for Calabi-Yau manifolds with torsion. This collection continues to be an important book on this spectacular achievement in algebraic geometry and mathematical physics.
