Title:
Berglund-Hübsch-Krawitz Mirrors via Shioda Maps

Speaker:
Tyler Kelly

Abstract:
We will introduce the Berglund-Hubsch-Krawitz (BHK) mirror duality that was proven by Chiodo and Ruan. Using a birational picture of the BHK correspondence in general, we will rearticulate the mirror duality birationally as quotients of Fermat hypersurfaces in projective space via Shioda maps. If time permits, we will demonstrate the utility of this interpretation by showing a classical approach to proving the birationality of various BHK mirrors.Related Papers:
