摘要:
Inspired by mirror symmetry, Morrison proposed a version of the cone conjecture for Calabi-Yau manifolds, which is about the structure of convex cones of “positive” line bundles. Later the conjecture was generalized by Kawamata from the viewpoint of birational geometry. In this talk, I will give an overview of this conjecture. In particular, I will try to introduce the motivation from mirror symmetry.
