Mirror-family conjecture for the Pfaffian and Grassmannian Calabi–Yau sections

About 28 years old · traced to

Let MyM_y and WyW_y be the two parts of the B-model moduli space, and let XAX_A and YAY_A be the corresponding two parts of the A-model (Kähler) moduli space. Write My+WyM_y+W_y and XA+YAX_A+Y_A for the resulting pairs of families.

Mirror-family conjecture. The pair My+WyM_y+W_y is the mirror family of XA+YAX_A+Y_A, with MyM_y and WyW_y forming different parts of the B-model moduli space and XAX_A and YAY_A forming different parts of the A-model (Kähler) moduli space.

This conjecture expresses the proposed mirror-symmetry relation between the Pfaffian and Grassmannian Calabi–Yau sections. The paper establishes that the B-models of MyM_y and WyW_y have the same Picard–Fuchs operator and conjectures that their Yukawa couplings agree, but the full mirror-family identification is not established there.
