    Lagrangian fibrations on blowups of toric varieties and mirror symmetry for hypersurfaces

    We consider mirror symmetry for (essentially arbitrary) hypersurfaces in (possibly noncompact) toric varieties from the perspective of the Strominger-Yau-Zaslow (SYZ) conjecture. Given a hypersurface HH in a toric variety VV we construct a Landau-Ginzburg model which is SYZ mirror to the blowup of V×CV\times\mathbb{C} along H×0H\times 0, under a positivity assumption. This construction also yields SYZ mirrors to affine conic bundles, as well as a Landau-Ginzburg model which can be naturally viewed as a mirror to HH. The main applications concern affine hypersurfaces of general type, for which our results provide a geometric basis for various mirror symmetry statements that appear in the recent literature. We also obtain analogous results for complete intersections.Comment: 83 pages; v2: added appendix discussing the analytic structure on moduli of objects in the Fukaya category; v3: further clarifications in response to referee report; v4: further clarifications throughout, especially sections 4 and 7 and appendix A; added appendix B on the geometry of reduced space

    We give a classification of all pairs (X,v) of Gorenstein del Pezzo surfaces X and vector fields v which are K-stable in the sense of Berman-Nystrom and therefore are expected to admit a Kahler-Ricci solition. Moreover, we provide some new examples of Fano threefolds admitting a Kahler-Ricci soliton.Comment: 21 pages, ancillary files containing calculations in SageMath; minor correction
