The SYZ conjecture for mirror Calabi–Yau varieties

About 8 years old · traced to

Let XX and Xˇ\check{X} be mirror Calabi–Yau varieties. An affine manifold with singularities is a manifold BB equipped with an integral affine structure away from a singular locus. The maps

ϕ:X→B,ϕˇ:Xˇ→B\phi:X\rightarrow B,\qquad \check{\phi}:\check{X}\rightarrow B

are fibrations.

SYZ conjecture. There is an affine manifold with singularities BB and maps ϕ:X→B\phi:X\rightarrow B and ϕˇ:Xˇ→B\check{\phi}:\check{X}\rightarrow B which are dual special Lagrangian fibrations.

This is a foundational geometric formulation of mirror symmetry, predicting that mirror Calabi–Yau varieties arise from dual torus fibrations over a common affine base. The source presents it as the geometric motivation for the Gross–Siebert program; no resolution status is given here.
