String theory predicts that the universe
has several extra dimensions, which have the
structure of Calabi-Yau varieties. The universes are
defined by these varieties, which are conjectured to
occur in physically indistinguishable pairs.
The mathematical field of mirror symmetry
seeks to understand the geometric correspondences
between paired Calabi-Yau varieties.
