The SYZ mirror-resolution conjecture for Spin(7) orbifolds

About 1 year old · traced to

Let (X^,Φ^)(\widehat{X},\widehat{\Phi}) be an SYZ-fibred Spin⁡(7)\operatorname{Spin}(7)-manifold, let τ\tau be fibrewise multiplication by −1-1, and let SS be the compact four-manifold base. Assume there exists a nonvanishing harmonic self-dual two-form ζ∈Ω+2(S)\zeta\in\Omega^2_+(S) and a resolving family

ρζ;t:(Xζ;t,Φζ;t)⇢(X,Φ)/τ.\rho_{\zeta;t}:(X_{\zeta;t},\Phi_{\zeta;t})\dashrightarrow(X,\Phi)/\tau.

Let (X‾,Φ‾)(\overline{X},\overline{\Phi}) be the SYZ mirror and τ‾\overline{\tau} its induced involution. The SYZ mirror-resolution conjecture. The quotient (X‾,Φ‾)/τ‾(\overline{X},\overline{\Phi})/\overline{\tau} admits a resolving family

ρζ∗;t:(X‾ζ∗;t,Φ‾ζ∗;t)⇢(X‾,Φ‾)/τ‾,\rho_{\zeta^*;t}:(\overline{X}_{\zeta^*;t},\overline{\Phi}_{\zeta^*;t})\dashrightarrow(\overline{X},\overline{\Phi})/\overline{\tau},

and (Xζ;t,Φζ;t)(X_{\zeta;t},\Phi_{\zeta;t}) and (X‾ζ∗;t,Φ‾ζ∗;t)(\overline{X}_{\zeta^*;t},\overline{\Phi}_{\zeta^*;t}) are mirror dual. This is a proposed compatibility between Spin(7) orbifold resolutions and SYZ mirror symmetry; the source gives no proof.
