Open/closed Correspondence and Extended LG/CY Correspondence for Quintic Threefolds

Konstantin Aleshkin, Chiu-Chu Melissa Liu

TL;DR

The work builds a unified GLSM framework that ties Walcher’s open disk potential for the quintic Calabi–Yau threefold to a central charge of an extended quintic GLSM, thereby realizing an open/closed correspondence in genus-zero GLSM invariants. It develops both CY and LG sectors, including GW/FJRW theories, CY/LG mirror theorems, open mirror symmetry, and extended Picard–Fuchs equations, then shows how wall-crossing between phases encodes the open/closed data. The authors introduce an extended GLSM (with additional fields) to capture the real quintic and reveal a precise open/closed correspondence between disk invariants and closed GLSM periods, plus explicit Mellin–Barnes representations via the Higgs–Coulomb correspondence. On the B-model side, they formulate an extended open/closed B-model and demonstrate how the extended periods reproduce the disk potentials under mirror symmetry, thereby providing a coherent open/closed and LG/CY picture across both A- and B-models and across CY and LG phases.

Abstract

We show that Walcher's disk potential for the quintic threefold can be represented as a central charge of a specific Gauged Linear Sigma Model which we call the extended quintic GLSM. This representation provides an open/closed correspondence for the quintic threefold since the central charge is a generating function of closed genus-zero GLSM invariants. We also explain how open Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau correspondence and open mirror symmetry for the quintic are compatible with wall-crossing and mirror symmetry of the extended GLSM, respectively.
