Mirror symmetry for Pfaffian Calabi-Yau 3-folds via conifold transitions

Abstract

In this note we construct conifold transitions between several Calabi-Yau threefolds given by Pfaffians in weighted projective spaces and Calabi-Yau threefolds appearing as complete intersections in toric varieties. We use the obtained results to predict mirrors following ideas of BCKS, Batsmalltoricdegen. In particular we consider the family of Calabi--Yau threefolds of degree 25 in P9 obtained as a transverse intersection of two Grassmannians in their Plucker embeddings.
