Deformations of log Calabi-Yau pairs can be obstructed

Algebraic Geometry 2022-02-02 v2

Abstract

We exhibit examples of pairs (X,D)(X,D) where XX is a smooth projective variety and DD is an anticanonical reduced simple normal crossing divisor such that the deformations of (X,D)(X,D) are obstructed. These examples are constructed via toric geometry.
