Lattices for Landau-Ginzburg orbifolds (Q2197666)

A Landau-Ginzburg orbifold is a pair \(( f , G)\) where \(f\) is an invertible polynomial (a quasi-homogeneous polynomial with as many terms as variables) and \(G\) a finite abelian group of symmetries of \(f\). For such orbifolds there is a Berglund-Hübsch-Henningson duality. In joint work of the authors with \textit{S. M. Gusein-Zade} [J. Geom. Phys. 106, 184--191 (2016; Zbl 1379.32025)] a symmetry property of the orbifold E-functions of dual pairs has been established. It is used here to show symmetry of the orbifoldized elliptic genera. Motivated by a formula proved here for the signature of the Milnor fibre in terms of the elliptic genus \(Z(\tau, z)\) in the non orbifold case, a definition is given for the orbifoldized signature. This raises the question of the existence of a lattice with this signature. For \(n = 3\), two lattices are defined, one for the A-model when \(G\subset \text{SL}(3;\mathbb{C}) \cap G_f\), the other one for the dual B-model. The first uses the crepant resolution \(Y\) of the ambient space \(\mathbb{C}^3/G\). Let \(Z\) be the inverse image of the zero set of \(f\). The lattice is the free part of the image of \(H^3(Y , Z;\mathbb{Z})\) in \(H^2(Z;\mathbb{Z})\). For the trivial case \(G=\{\text{id}\}\) this is the usual Milnor lattice. The lattice has the correct rank and signature. It is described in detail for \(14+8\) pairs \(( f , G)\). The other lattice comes from the numerical Grothendieck group of the stable homotopy category of \(L_{\widehat G}\)-graded matrix factorisations of \(f\), where \(L_{\widehat G}\) is related to the maximal grading of \(f\). The rank of this lattice is equal to the rank of the first lattice for the dual pair. For \(f\) defining an ADE singularity is the root lattice of the corresponding type. The Authors conjecture that these lattices are interchanged under the duality of pairs. \textit{S. M. Gusein-Zade} and the first author [Manuscr. Math. 155, No. 3--4, 335--353 (2018; Zbl 1393.14056)] also defined an orbifold version of the Milnor lattice for a pair \(( f , G)\). It is not known whether that lattice coincides with one of the lattices here.
