The integral asymptotic expansion conjecture for irreducible Calabi–Yau Picard–Fuchs systems

Let P\mathcal{P} be a Picard–Fuchs operator of a family of Calabi–Yau threefolds with a MUM point at 00, and suppose that its associated local system is irreducible. For a loop γπ1(P1S,t0)\gamma\in\pi_1(\mathbb{P}^1\setminus\mathcal{S},t_0), write Nγ:=MγIdN_\gamma:=M_\gamma-\operatorname{Id}, where MγM_\gamma is the corresponding monodromy matrix, and let dγd_\gamma, aγa_\gamma, and pγp_\gamma be integers. Integral asymptotic expansion conjecture. There exists γπ1(P1S,t0)\gamma\in\pi_1(\mathbb{P}^1\setminus\mathcal{S},t_0) with dγ0d_\gamma\neq0 such that

Nγ(v)=dγ6(2πi)3log3(t)+pγ48πilog(t)+aγ(2πi)3ζ(3)+o(1),N_\gamma(-v)=\frac{d_\gamma}{6(2\pi i)^{3}}\log^{3}(t)+\frac{p_\gamma}{48\pi i}\log(t)+\frac{a_\gamma}{(2\pi i)^3}\zeta(3)+o(1),

where dγ,aγ,pγZd_\gamma,a_\gamma,p_\gamma\in\mathbb{Z}. This is motivated by mirror symmetry and is a stronger form of the expected arithmetic constraints on the transition matrix between generalized Doran–Morgan and normalized Frobenius bases. The source does not provide evidence of a resolution, so the conjecture remains open.
