Tropical counting from asymptotic analysis on Maurer-Cartan equations

preprint2020arXivOpen access

Abstract

Let X=XΣX = X_Σ be a toric surface and (Xˇ,W)(\check{X}, W) be its Landau-Ginzburg (LG) mirror where WW is the Hori-Vafa potential. We apply asymptotic analysis to study the extended deformation theory of the LG model (Xˇ,W)(\check{X}, W), and prove that semi-classical limits of Fourier modes of a specific class of Maurer-Cartan solutions naturally give rise to tropical disks in XX with Maslov index 0 or 2, the latter of which produces a universal unfolding of WW. For X=P2X = \mathbb{P}^2, our construction reproduces Gross' perturbed potential WnW_n which was proven to be the universal unfolding of WW written in canonical coordinates. We also explain how the extended deformation theory can be used to reinterpret the jumping phenomenon of WnW_n across walls of the scattering diagram formed by the Maslov index 0 tropical disks originally observed by Gross (in the case of X=P2X = \mathbb{P}^2).
