GKZ Hypergeometric Series for the Hesse Pencil, Chain Integrals and Orbifold Singularities Zhou, Jie

Description

The GKZ system for the Hesse pencil of elliptic curves has more solutions than the period integrals. In this talk I will give different realizations and interpretations of the extra solution, in terms of oscillating integral, Eichler integral, chain integral on the elliptic curve, etc. The orbifold singularity (rather than the cusp-like singularity) on the base of the family is responsible for this extra solution. The extra solution plays an important role in the so-called Calabi-Yau/Landau-Ginzburg correspondence which matches different enumerative theories. The same discussion also applies to slightly more general cases, e.g. Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in projective spaces.
