The celebrated Mirror Theorem states that the genus zero part of the A model (quantum cohomology, rational curves counting) of the Fermat quintic threefold is equivalent to the B model (complex deformation, variation of Hodge structure) of its mirror dual orbifold. In this article, we establish a mirror-dual statement. Namely, the B model of the Fermat quintic threefold is shown to be equivalent to the A model of its mirror, and hence establishes the mirror symmetry as a true duality.

We show that the generating functions of Gromov--Witten invariants with ancestors are invariant under a simple flop, for all genera, after an analytic continuation in the extended Kähler moduli space. This is a sequel to [LLW].

We verify the Invariance Conjectures of tautological equations in genus two. In particular, a uniform derivation of all known genus two equations is given.

We prove the existence of global sections trivializing the Hodge bundles on the Hodge metric completion space of the Torelli space of CalabiYau manifolds, a global splitting property of these Hodge bundles. We also prove that a compact CalabiYau manifold can not be deformed to its complex conjugate. These results answer certain open questions in the subject. A general result about certain period map to be bi-holomorphic from the Hodge metric completion space of the Torelli space of CalabiYau type manifolds to their period domains is proved and applied to the cases of K3 surfaces, cubic fourfolds, and hyperkhler manifolds.

The double point relation defines a natural theory of algebraic cobordism for bundles on varieties. We construct a simple basis (over the rationals) of the corresponding cobordism groups over Spec(C) for all dimensions of varieties and ranks of bundles. The basis consists of split bundles over products of projective spaces. Moreover, we prove the full theory for bundles on varieties is an extension of scalars of standard algebraic cobordism.

We establish a generic vanishing theorem for surfaces in characteristic p that lift to p and use it for classification of surfaces of general type with Euler characteristic p and large Albanese dimension.

Mirror principle is a general method developed in [LLY1]-[LLY4] to compute characteristic classes and characteristic numbers on moduli spaces of stable maps in terms of hypergeometric type series. The counting of the numbers of curves in Calabi-Yau manifolds from mirror symmetry corresponds to the computation of Euler numbers. This principle computes quite general Hirzebruch multiplicative classes such as the total Chern classes.

Let X denote an equivariant embedding of a connected reductive group X over an algebraically closed field X . Let X denote a Borel subgroup of X and let X denote a X -orbit closure in X . When the characteristic of X is positive and X is projective we prove that X is globally X -regular. As a consequence, X is normal and Cohen-Macaulay for arbitrary X and arbitrary characteristics. Moreover, in characteristic zero it follows that X has rational singularities. This extends earlier results by the second author and M. Brion.

We establish a new relationship (the MLK correspondence) between twisted FJRW theory and local Gromov-Witten theory in all genera. As a consequence, we show that the Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau correspondence is implied by the crepant transformation conjecture for Fermat type in genus zero. We use this to then prove the Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau correspondence for Fermat type, generalizing the results of A. Chiodo and Y. Ruan.

We give a definition of character sheaves on the group compactification which is equivalent to Lusztig's definition in [G. Lusztig, Parabolic character sheaves, II, Mosc. Math. J. 4 (4) (2004) 869896]. We also prove some properties of the character sheaves on the group compactification.
