Title: Periods for singular CY families and Riemann–Hilbert correspondence

Abstract: A GKZ system, introduced by Gelfand, Kapranov, and Zelevinsky, is a system of partial differential equations generalizing the hypergeometric structure studied by Euler and Gauss. The solutions to GKZ systems have been found applications in various branches of mathematics including number theory, algebraic geometry and mirror symmetry. In this talk, I will explain the details and demonstrate how to find the Riemann–Hilbert partner of the GKZ system with a fractional parameter which arises from the B model of singular CY varieties. This is a joint work with Dingxin Zhang.
