Quantum Cohomology and Periods

Hiroshi Iritani (2011)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

In a previous paper, the author introduced an integral structure in quantum cohomology defined by the K -theory and the Gamma class and showed that it is compatible with mirror symmetry for toric orbifolds. Applying the quantum Lefschetz principle to the previous results, we find an explicit relationship between solutions to the quantum differential equation of toric complete intersections and the periods (or oscillatory integrals) of their mirrors. We describe in detail the mirror isomorphism of...

Symplectic Representation of a Braid Group on 3-Sheeted Covers of the Riemann Sphere

Rolf-Peter, Holzapfel (1997)

Serdica Mathematical Journal

We define Picard cycles on each smooth three-sheeted Galois cover C of the Riemann sphere. The moduli space of all these algebraic curves is a nice Shimura surface, namely a symmetric quotient of the projective plane uniformized by the complex two-dimensional unit ball. We show that all Picard cycles on C form a simple orbit of the Picard modular group of Eisenstein numbers. The proof uses a special surface classification in connection with the uniformization of a classical Picard-Fuchs system....
