• "It was mathematics, the non-empirical science par excellence, wherein the mind appears to play only with itself, that turned out to be the science of sciences, delivering the key to those laws of nature and the universe that are concealed by appearances" ~ Hannah Arendt

In this post, I will begin the first part of a study of the cohomological-Dubrovin connection in the context of mirror-symmetry for Calabi-Yau Gromov–Witten theory. In particular, I will derive two propositions about quantum cohomology. In my last three posts, I finally derived, after studying the Witten Equation as well as the Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau correspondence, the Witten super-Dubrovin compactification Chern-Simons formula

In my last post in this series on the Witten-equation, I showed that the genus-zero Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau correspondence amounts to the assertion that there is a degree-preserving isomorphism between the two state spaces and that after certain identifications, the small $J$-functions coincide, thus, the 'Picard-Lefschetz' Witten relation

This is a series of posts that hopefully will culminate in a book I am working on. The aim is to show that the Witten equation in the context of Picard-Lefschetz Theory, leads to the non-forking, super-stability and hyper-categoricity of M-theory, thus making it the 'only-game-in-town' indeed. First, I will analyse the Witten nonlinear elliptic system of PDEs associated with a quasi-homogeneous polynomial-super-potential by showing its depth via the Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau correspondence.
