Abstract

We prove the existence of an upper bound on critical volume of a large class of toric Sasaki-Einstein manifolds with respect to the first Chern class of the resolutions of the Gorenstein singularities in the corresponding toric Calabi-Yau varieties. We examine the canonical metrics obtained by the Delzant construction on these varieties and characterise cases when the bound is attained. We comment on computational tools used in the investigation, in particular Neural Networks and the gradient saliency method.

Comments

The proof of Theorem 1 given in Section 3.1 was found to rely on a false assumption during the review, and is most likely irreparable. The results of Appendix A remain true
