Abstract

We consider a version of the relative Fukaya category for anti-canonical Lefschetz pencils. There are direct connections between the behaviour of this category and enumerative geometry: some of these are results announced here, others remain conjectural. Among the conjectural goals is a formula for the dependence of the Fukaya category of Calabi–Yau hypersurfaces on the Novikov (area) parameter.
