title: Mirror Symmetry for Del Pezzo Surfaces creator: Jost, Jan Niklas subject: ddc-500 subject: 500 Natural sciences and mathematics subject: ddc-510 subject: 510 Mathematics description: We describe mirror symmetry as an equivalence of D-modules. On the A-side we give an introduction to Gromov-Witten invariants, quantum cohomology and the Dubrovin connection. In particular we compute the small quantum cohomology for Del Pezzo surfaces in general and the Dubrovin connection for X_4 explicitly. On the B-side a mirror D-module is constructed as some Fourier-Laplace transformed Gauß-Manin system. We consider its Brieskorn lattice and explicitly compute it for the toric variety X^o_4. Furthermore we derive a solution to Birkhoff’s problem by determining concretely a good basis in the sense of M. Saito. Consequently we prove a mirror theorem for X_4. date: 2021 type: Dissertation type: info:eu-repo/semantics/doctoralThesis type: NonPeerReviewed format: application/pdf identifier: https://archiv.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/volltextserverhttps://archiv.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/volltextserver/29359/1/Dissertation.pdf identifier: DOI:10.11588/heidok.00029359 identifier: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-heidok-293592 identifier: Jost, Jan Niklas (2021) Mirror Symmetry for Del Pezzo Surfaces.
