Stokes data explicitly construct connection-formulae which describe the nonlinear Stokes phenomena associated to these solutions, via implementation of Stokes transitions acting on the transseries. Nonlinear resurgent Stokes data lack, however, a first-principle computational approach, hence are hard to determine generically. In the Painleve I and Painleve II contexts, nonlinear Stokes data get further hindered as these equations are resonant, with non-trivial consequences for the interconnections between transseries sectors, bridge equations, and associated Stokes coefficients. In parallel to this, the Painleve I and Painleve II equations are string-equations for two-dimensional quantum (super) gravity and minimal string theories, where Stokes data have natural ZZ-brane interpretations. This work computes for the first time the complete, analytical, resurgent Stokes data for the first two Painleve equations, alongside their quantum gravity or minimal string incarnations. The method developed herein, dubbed\"closed-form asymptotics\", makes sole use of resurgent large-order asymptotics of transseries solutions -- alongside a careful analysis of the role resonance plays. Given its generality, it may be applicable to other distinct (nonlinear, resonant) problems. Results for analytical Stokes coefficients have natural structures, which are described, and extensive high-precision numerical tests corroborate all analytical predictions. Connection-formulae are explicitly constructed, with rather simple and compact final results encoding the full Stokes data, and further allowing for exact monodromy checks -- hence for an analytical proof of our results.","PeriodicalId":55616,"journal":{"name":"Communications in Number Theory and Physics","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2022-03-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42713480","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We use the mixed-twist construction of Doran and Malmendier to obtain a multi-parameter family of K3 surfaces of Picard rank ρ ≥ 16.

We construct a sequence of restrictions that lead to extensions of the polarization by two-elementary lattices. We show that the Picard-Fuchs operators for the restricted families coincide with known resonant hypergeometric systems. Second, for the one-parameter mirror families of deformed Fermat hypersurfaces we show that the mixed-twist construction produces a non-resonant GKZ system for which a basis of solutions in the form of absolutely convergent Mellin-Barnes integrals exists whose monodromy we compute explicitly.","PeriodicalId":55616,"journal":{"name":"Communications in Number Theory and Physics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2021-08-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44667130","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The existence of such symmetry has been widely believed to cause the degeneration of the spectrum, that is, the crossings on the energy curves. In this paper we propose a conjectural relation between the symmetry and degeneracy for the ibQRM (cid:96) given explicitly in terms of two polynomials appearing independently in the respective investigations. Concretely, one of the polynomials appears as the quotient of the constraint polynomials that assure the existence of degenerate solutions while the other determines a quadratic relation (in general, it defines a curve of hyperelliptic type) between the ibQRM (cid:96) Hamiltonian and its basic commuting operator J (cid:96) . Following this conjecture, we derive several interesting structural insights of the whole spectrum. For instance, the energy curves are naturally shown to lie on a surface determined by the family of hyperelliptic curves by considering the coupling constant as a variable. This geometric picture contains the generalization of the parity decomposition of the symmetric quantum Rabi model. Moreover, it allows us to describe a remarkable approximation of the first (cid:96) energy curves by the zero-section of the corresponding hyperelliptic curve. These investigations naturally lead to a geometric picture of the (hyper-)elliptic surfaces given by the Kodaira-N´eron type model for a family of curves over the projective line in connection with the energy curves, which may be expected to provide a complex analytic proof of the conjecture.","PeriodicalId":55616,"journal":{"name":"Communications in Number Theory and Physics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2021-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42334478","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
