... I am interested in Fano varieties -- those whose some multiple of sheaf of higher holomorphic differentials embeds them to a pro jective space. Mirror conjectures state an existence of a so called dual Landau­Ginzburg model, that is an open smooth Calabi­Yau variety with non-trivial complex-valued function called potential. ... The pro ject has 3 main directions. ... Mirror Symmetry predicts duality between anticanonical sections of Fano variety and fibers of its dual Landau­Ginzburg model. ...
