Abstract

It's been known for a while that the equivariant Gromov-Witten theory of the O(-1)+O(-1) bundle over P^1 (with antidiagonal C^* action on the fibers) is somehow related with the Ablowitz-Ladik hierarchy of integrable PDEs. In a joint work with A. Brini and G. Carlet we find an explicit mirror Landau-Ginzburg model for such target space and we clarify that the link of such Frobenius manifold with the one providing the Ablowitz-Ladik hierarchy is Dubrovin's duality (somewhat generalized to a non-homogeneous case).
