Hosono–Lee–Lian–Yau Hodge number duality conjecture for singular Calabi–Yau mirror pairs

Let (T~Δ,T~Δˇ)(\widetilde{T}_\Delta,\widetilde{T}_{\check{\Delta}}) be the pair of dd-dimensional singular Calabi–Yau varieties obtained as branched double covers of the toric varieties associated to dual nef-partition data. For p,qZp,q\in\mathbb{Z}, write hp,qh^{p,q} for their usual Hodge numbers. Hosono–Lee–Lian–Yau conjecture. The pair satisfies the Hodge number duality

hp,q(T~Δ)=hdp,q(T~Δˇ).h^{p,q}(\widetilde{T}_\Delta)=h^{d-p,q}(\widetilde{T}_{\check{\Delta}}).

This duality is intended to make (T~Δ,T~Δˇ)(\widetilde{T}_\Delta,\widetilde{T}_{\check{\Delta}}) a mirror pair. The case d=3d=3 was proven in the work introducing these varieties, while the general case remains open.
