Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The results of this project are in the settings of the theory of semi-simple Frobenius manifolds. The main examples of such manifolds come from quantum cohomology and singularity theory. Motivated by Kyoji Saito's theory of primitive forms, we have introduced the notion of period vectors for any semi-simple Frobenius manifold. Using the period vectors and following ideas of Givental and Milanov we introduce vertex operators. The main result of this proposal is a connection formula for the operator product expansion (OPE) of the vertex operators, i.e., we found a general rule that allows us to analytically continue the OPE from one singularity to another one. The second main achievement of this proposal is a K-theoretic interpretation of the period integrals for simple singularities corresponding to vanishing cycles. Both results were applied to the problem of constructing integrable hierarchies of differential equations in the form of Hirota quadratic equations.
