mirror map

definition 0.0.1 [Mirror symmetry motivation notes]

Let \(X\) and \(\check X\) be a proposed mirror pair of Calabi--Yau manifolds. Given chosen boundary points in the complexified Kähler moduli of \(X\) and the complex-structure moduli of \(\check X\), a mirror map is a local analytic or formal identification of the corresponding parameter spaces: \[ \text{complexified Kähler parameters of }X \quad\leftrightarrow\quad \text{complex-structure parameters of }\check X. \] Depending on convention, either this identification or its inverse is called the mirror map. Near a large-radius limit on the \(A\)-side and a large complex-structure limit on the \(B\)-side, this identification is usually normalized using flat coordinates on the \(B\)-model side obtained from periods of the holomorphic volume form on \(\check X\). It is the coordinate change used to compare \(A\)-model structures on \(X\) with \(B\)-model structures on \(\check X\).
