Smooth projective Calabi-Yau complete intersections and algorithms for their Frobenius manifolds and higher residue pairings

Abstract

The goal of this article is to provide an explicit algorithmic construction of formal $F$-manifold structures, formal Frobenius manifold structures, and higher residue pairings on the primitive middle-dimensional cohomology $\mathbb{H}$ of a smooth projective Calabi-Yau complete intersection variety $X$ defined by homogeneous polynomials $G_1(\underline{x}),\dots ,G_k(\underline{x})$. Our main method is to analyze a certain dGBV (differential Gerstenhaber-Batalin-Vilkovisky) algebra $\mathcal{A}$ obtained from the twisted de Rham complex which computes $\mathbb{H}$. More explicitly, we introduce a notion of \textit{a weak primitive form} associated to a solution of the Maurer-Cartan equation of $\mathcal{A}$ and the Gauss-Manin connection, which is a weakened version of Saito's primitive form (\cite{Saito}). In addition, we provide an explicit algorithm for a weak primitive form based on the Gröbner basis in order to achieve our goal. Our approach through the weak primitive form can be viewed as a unifying link (based on Witten's gauged linear sigma model, \cite{W93}) between the Barannikov-Kontsevich's approach to Frobenius manifolds via dGBV algebras (non-linear topological sigma model, \cite{BK}) and Saito's approach to Frobenius manifolds via primitive forms and higher residue pairings (Landau-Ginzburg model, \cite{ST}).
