Abstract: The degree zero part of the quantum cohomology algebra of a smooth Fano toric symplectic manifold is determined by the superpotential function, W, of its moment polytope. In particular, this algebra is semisimple, i.e. splits as a product of fields, if and only if all the critical points of W are non-degenerate. In this paper we prove that this non-degeneracy holds for all smooth Fano toric varieties with facet-symmetric duals to moment polytopes.

Review text

The authors show that when \(X\) is a facet symmetric smooth symplectic toric Fano manifold, then for any toric symplectic form \(\omega\), the small quantum cohomology \(QH^{0}(X,\omega)\) is semisimple over the field \(\mathbb{K}^{\uparrow}\) of generalized Laurent series which is defined as \[ \mathbb{K}^{\uparrow}=\{ \sum_{\lambda\in \mathbb{R}} a_{\lambda}s^{\lambda} | a_{\lambda}\in \mathbb{C} \mathrm{ and } \{ \lambda | a_{\lambda}\neq 0 \} \mathrm{ is discrete and bounded below in } \mathbb{R} \}. \]
