Refined Weil–Petersson conjecture for the stringy Kähler moduli space

Let XX be a projective Calabi–Yau nn-fold, let MKah(X)\mathcal{M}_{\mathrm{Kah}}(X) be its stringy Kähler moduli space, and let DX=DbCoh(X)\mathcal{D}_X=\mathrm{D^bCoh}(X). Let StabN+(DX)\mathrm{Stab}_{\mathcal{N}}^+(\mathcal{D}_X) denote the relevant component of the numerical stability-condition space, and let KWPK_{\mathrm{WP}} be the Weil–Petersson potential. For a mirror manifold YY, write Mcpx(Y)\mathcal{M}_{\mathrm{cpx}}(Y) for its complex moduli space. Refined Weil–Petersson conjecture. There exists an embedding

ι:MKah(X)Aut(DX)\StabN+(DX)/C.\iota:\mathcal{M}_{\mathrm{Kah}}(X)\hookrightarrow\mathrm{Aut}(\mathcal{D}_X)\backslash\mathrm{Stab}_{\mathcal{N}}^+(\mathcal{D}_X)/\mathbb{C}.

The complex Hessian of ιKWP\iota^*K_{\mathrm{WP}} defines a non-degenerate Kähler metric on MKah(X)\mathcal{M}_{\mathrm{Kah}}(X), and this metric is identified under the mirror map MKah(X)Mcpx(Y)\mathcal{M}_{\mathrm{Kah}}(X)\cong\mathcal{M}_{\mathrm{cpx}}(Y) with the Weil–Petersson metric on Mcpx(Y)\mathcal{M}_{\mathrm{cpx}}(Y). When n=3n=3, the image is locally a holomorphic Legendre variety. The authors state that the conjecture holds for elliptic curves and mention supporting evidence, but the general claim remains open; defining the stringy Kähler moduli space is identified as a major difficulty.
