Abstract:

This talk will explore homological mirror symmetry for weighted blowups of toric varieties. After an introduction to this topic, I will discuss natural semiorthogonal decompositions that occur in both the A-model and B-model categories. There is an equivalence of the right orthogonal categories which will be illustrated. This leads to an inductive strategy for the proof of the homological mirror symmetry conjecture for a large class of toric surfaces.
