Period integrals and mutation

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Let f be a Laurent polynomial in two variables, whose Newton polygon strictly contains the origin and whose vertices are primitive lattice points, and let Lf be the minimal-order differential operator that annihilates the period integral of f. We prove several results about f and Lf in terms of the Newton polygon of f and the combinatorial operation of *mutation*, in particular we give an in principle complete description of the monodromy of Lf around the origin. Special attention is given to the class of *maximally mutable* Laurent polynomials, which has applications to the conjectured classification of Fano manifolds via mirror symmetry.
