Primary-discriminant criterion for 0-brane monodromy

Let XX be a Calabi–Yau threefold, let Δ0\Delta_0 be the primary component of the discriminant, and let a 0-brane be an object PD(X)P\in\mathbf{D}(X) with Chern character equal to the point class pH6(X)p\in H^6(X). 0-brane monodromy conjecture. The 0-brane undergoes monodromy if and only if one circles the primary component Δ0\Delta_0 of the discriminant. The preceding calculation shows that circling Δ0\Delta_0 adds a 6-brane charge, while the other discriminant components considered in the source act trivially on the 0-brane; the general criterion is not resolved in the source.
