The metric SYZ conjecture for large complex structure limits

Let π:XΔ\pi:\mathfrak{X}\to\Delta be a large complex structure limit family of Calabi–Yau nn-folds, and equip XtX_t for t0t\neq0 with the Ricci-flat Kähler metrics ωtc1(LXt)\omega_t\in c_1(\mathfrak{L}|_{X_t}). Define the unit-diameter rescaled metrics

ω~t=diam(Xt,ωt)2ωt.\widetilde{\omega}_t=\operatorname{diam}(X_t,\omega_t)^{-2}\omega_t.

Metric SYZ conjecture. As t0t\to0, (Xt,ω~t)(X_t,\widetilde{\omega}_t) converges in the Gromov–Hausdorff topology to a compact metric space (Z,d)(Z,d) with an open dense subset Z0Z_0 such that dZ0d|_{Z_0} is induced by a Riemannian metric g0g_0, the real Hausdorff codimension of ZZ0Z\setminus Z_0 is at least 22, and Z0Z_0 carries an integral affine structure for which, in local affine coordinates,

g0=2F,g_0=\nabla^2F,

where FF is a smooth convex function satisfying

det(2F)=cR>0.\det(\nabla^2F)=c\in\mathbb{R}_{>0}.

This conjecture identifies the collapsed metric limit with the affine and Monge–Ampère geometry predicted by SYZ mirror symmetry. It remains open in general.
