We apply our results to prove integrality assertions on the Taylor coefficients of (multi-variable) mirror maps. More precisely, with $\\mathbf z=(z_1,z_2,...,z_d)$, we show that the Taylor coefficients of the multi-variable series $q(\\mathbf z)=z_i\\exp(G(\\mathbf z)/F(\\mathbf z))$ are integers, where $F(\\mathbf z)$ and $G(\\mathbf z)+\\log(z_i) F(\\mathbf z)$, $i=1,2,...,d$, are specific solutions of certain GKZ systems. This result implies the integrality of the Taylor coefficients of numerous families of multi-variable mirror maps of Calabi-Yau complete intersections in weighted projective spaces, as well as of many one-variable mirror maps in the \"Tables of Calabi-Yau equations\" [arXiv:math/0507430] of Almkvist, van Enckevort, van Straten and Zudilin. In particular, our results prove a conjecture of Batyrev and van Straten in [Comm. Math. Phys. 168 (1995), 493-533] on the integrality of the Taylor coefficients of canonical coordinates for a large family of such coordinates in several variables.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2010-04-12T14:46:54.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11S80", "11J99", "14J32", "33C70" ], "keywords": [ "taylor coefficients", "adic formal congruences", "multivariate", "van straten", "calabi-yau complete intersections" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 28, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 851443, "adsabs": "2008arXiv0804.3049K" } } }
