Title. Mirror Symmetry for Toric Calabi-Yau 3-Folds
Abstract. Mirror symmetry, from the mathematical perspective, is a duality relation between symplectic geometry and algebraic geometry. The combinatorial nature of toric geometry makes the mirror symmetry relation very explicit in examples. I will explain various aspects of mirror symmetry, both enumerative and homological, for toric varieties and especially toric Calabi-Yau 3-folds.
