The crepant transformation conjecture for the Landau–Ginzburg and Calabi–Yau models

Let IXI\mathcal{X} and IYI\mathcal{Y} be the inertia orbifolds of the local targets X\mathcal{X} and Y\mathcal{Y}, and let LXVX\mathscr{L}^{\mathcal{X}}\subset\mathscr{V}^{\mathcal{X}} and LYVY\mathscr{L}^{\mathcal{Y}}\subset\mathscr{V}^{\mathcal{Y}} be the Lagrangian cones of their equivariant genus-zero Gromov–Witten theories. Let t=tjt=t^{\mathfrak{j}} be the coordinate dual to 1j\mathbb{1}_{\mathfrak{j}} on HCR(X)H^*_{CR}(\mathcal{X}), let qq be the exponential of the coordinate dual to the hyperplane class HH on H(Y)H^*(\mathcal{Y}), and assume that a function IY(t,z)I^{\mathcal{Y}}(\mathbf{t},z) generating LY\mathscr{L}^{\mathcal{Y}} is analytic near q=0q=0. Via q=tdq=t^{-d} and analytic continuation, regard LY\mathscr{L}^{\mathcal{Y}} as continued from q=0q=0 to t=0t=0. The crepant transformation conjecture. The analytic continuation of LY\mathscr{L}^{\mathcal{Y}} converges near t=0t=0, and there exists a symplectic transformation

U:VXVY\mathbb{U}:\mathscr{V}^{\mathcal{X}}\to\mathscr{V}^{\mathcal{Y}}

which identifies LX\mathscr{L}^{\mathcal{X}} with the analytic continuation of LY\mathscr{L}^{\mathcal{Y}}. This is the genus-zero crepant transformation prediction relating the Gromov–Witten theories of the two birational targets; the stated source does not provide evidence resolving it in general.
