Abstract

FINDING: Mirror symmetry for toric Calabi-Yau varieties provides a geometric framework that unifies knot invariants (Chern-Simons) with homological algebra, via SYZ fibrations and D-model constructions. | MATH: Toric Calabi-Yau: \(X_\Sigma\) with fan \(\Sigma \subset \mathbb{R}^3\), SYZ mirror \(X^\vee\) via dual torus fibrations \(T^3 \to T^3\). Chern-Simons invariants: \(Z_{\text{CS}}(M,K) = \int \mathcal{D}A \, e^{i k S_{\text{CS}}[A]}\), \(S_{\text{CS}} = \frac{1}{4\pi}\int_M \text{Tr}(A\wedge dA + \frac{2}{3}A^3)\). Homological mirror: \(D^b\text{Coh}(X^\vee) \simeq D^b\text{Fuk}(X)\).
