Abstract

The aim of this paper is to apply ideas from the study of Legendrian singularities to a specific example of interest within mirror symmetry. We calculate the Landau–Ginzburg A-model with \(M={\mathbb {C}}^{3},W=z_1 z_2 z_3\) in its guise as microlocal sheaves along the natural singular Lagrangian thimble \(L={\hbox {Cone}}(T^2)\subset M\). The description we obtain is immediately equivalent to the B-model of the pair-of-pants \(\mathbb {P}^{1}{\setminus }\{0,1,\infty \}\) as predicted by mirror symmetry.
