SYZ mirror symmetry for toric Calabi-Yau manifolds. / CUHK electronic theses & dissertations collection

It is conjectured that the SYZ map equals to the inverse mirror map. In dimension two this conjecture is proved, and in dimension three supporting evidences of the equality are studied in various examples. Since the SYZ map is expressed in terms of open Gromov-Witten invariants, this conjectural equality established an enumerative meaning of the inverse mirror map. / Moreover a computational method of open Gromov-Witten invariants for toric Calabi-Yau manifolds is invented. As an application, the Landau-Ginzburg mirrors of compact semi-Fano toric surfaces are computed explicitly. / This thesis gives a procedure to carry out SYZ construction of mirrors with quantum corrections by Fourier transform of open Gromov-Witten invariants. Applying to toric Calabi-Yau manifolds, one obtains the Hori-Iqbel-Vafa mirror together with a map from the Kahler moduli to the complex moduli of the mirror, called the SYZ map. / Lau, Siu Cheong. / Adviser: N.C.
