Abstract
We study a flat connection defined on the open-closed deformation space of open string mirror symmetry for type II compactifications on Calabi-Yau threefolds with D-branes. We use flatness and integrability conditions to define distinguished flat coordinates and the superpotential function at an arbitrary point in the open-closed deformation space. Integrability conditions are given for concrete deformation spaces with several closed and open string deformations. We study explicit examples for expansions around different limit points, including orbifold Gromov-Witten invariants, and brane configurations with several brane moduli. In particular, the latter case covers stacks of parallel branes with non-Abelian symmetry.

TL;DR: alim et al. as mentioned in this paper study topological string theory on elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau manifolds using mirror symmetry and find that the fiber moduli dependence is captured by a finer polynomial structure in terms of the modular forms of the moduli group of the elliptic curve.

Fluxbranes: Moduli Stabilisation and Inflation

TL;DR: In this article, a new explicit moduli stabilisation procedure combining the F -and D-term scalar potentials is proposed, which is based on fluxed D7-branes in a geometry with three large four-cycles of hierarchically different volumes.

A 2dvEv- bit distributed algorithm for the directed Euler trail problem

TL;DR: The algorithm can be used as a building block for solving other distributed graph problems, and can be slightly modified to run on a strongly-connected diagraph for generating the existent Euler trail or to report that no Euler trails exist.

Kodaira-Spencer theory of gravity and exact results for quantum string amplitudes

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed techniques to compute higher loop string amplitudes for twisted N = 2 theories with ε = 3 (i.e. the critical case) by exploiting the discovery of an anomaly at every genus in decoupling of BRST trivial states, captured by a master anomaly equation.

Mirror Symmetry

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proved mirror symmetry for supersymmetric sigma models on Calabi-Yau manifolds in 1+1 dimensions and showed that the equivalence of the gauged linear sigma model embedded in a theory with an enlarged gauge symmetry, with a Landau-Ginzburg theory of Toda type Standard R -> 1/R duality and dynamical generation of superpotential by vortices.
