We outline a general geometric structure that underlies the N=1 superpotentials of a certain class of flux and brane configurations in type II string compactifications on Calabi-Yau threefolds. This ``holomorphic N=1 special geometry'' is in many respects comparable to, and in a sense an extension of, the familiar special geometry in N=2 supersymmetric type II string compactifications. It puts the computation of the instanton-corrected superpotential W of the four-dimensional N=1 string effective action on a very similar footing as the familiar computation of the N=2 prepotential F via mirror symmetry. In this note we present some of the main ideas and results, while more details as well as some explicit computations will appear in a companion paper

  1. Hodge-theoretic Open/Closed Correspondence

    math.AG 2025-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The relative periods and mixed Hodge structures of an open toric Calabi-Yau 3-orbifold with a brane agree, up to a Tate twist, with the periods and mixed Hodge structures of a closed toric Calabi-Yau 4-orbifold.

    hep-th 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Non-perturbative g_s corrections obstruct perturbative Type IIB descriptions and can remove classical infinite distance degenerations in asymptotic regions of the complex structure moduli space.
