Let $(X,L)$ be a quasi-polarized canonical Calabi-Yau threefold. In this note, we show that $\vert mL\vert$ is basepoint free for $m\geq 4$. Moreover, if the morphism $\Phi_{\vert 4L\vert}$ is not birational onto its image and $h^0(X,L)\geq…
In this note we derive an upper bound on the number of 2-spheres in the fixed point set of a smooth and homologically trivial cyclic group action of prime order on a simply-connected 4-manifold. This improves the a priori bound which is…
An abelian group acting freely on a $\mathrm{CAT}(0)$ cube complex is free abelian.
In this paper we classify all potentially G-birationally rigid del Pezzo threefolds of degree 4 and their automorphism groups and prove the G-birational rigidity of one of them
Proper group actions are ubiquitous in mathematics and have many of the attractive features of actions of compact groups. In this survey, we discuss proper actions of Lie groups on smooth manifolds. If the group dimension is sufficiently…
Motivated by the derived invariance problem of elliptic genera, we construct a non-birational pair of Calabi--Yau complete intersection 17-folds in $F_4$-Grassmannians with distinct Chern numbers and identical elliptic genera.
We classify regular generically free actions of finite groups on the projective plane, up to conjugation in the Cremona group.
We study a projective Calabi-Yau threefold which has been constructed in an earlier paper. It is rigid and has Picard number two. We construct a pair of divisors which give a basis of the Picard group and determine all intersection numbers…
We study equivariant birationality from the perspective of derived categories. We produce examples of nonlinearizable but stably linearizable actions of finite groups on smooth cubic fourfolds.
We consider the action of the group $\mathrm{PGL}_4(K)$ on the smooth cubic surfaces of $\mathbb{P}^3_K$ ($K$ an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero). We classify, in an explicit way, all the smooth cubic surfaces with non…
A free action of a finite group on an odd-dimensional sphere is said to be almost linear if the action restricted to each cyclic or 2-hyperelementary subgroup is conjugate to a free linear action. We begin this survey paper by reviewing the…
In this paper, we introduce notions of partitionability and characteristic sets of homogeneous polynomials and give a complete classification of groups faithfully acting on smooth cubic fivefolds. Specifically, we prove that there exist 20…
We study and classify free actions of compact quantum groups on unital C*-algebras in terms of generalized factor systems. Moreover, we use these factor systems to show that all finite coverings of irrational rotation C*-algebras are cleft.
We construct examples of symplectic half-flat manifolds on compact quotients of solvable Lie groups. We prove that the Calabi-Yau structures are not rigid in the class of symplectic half-flat structures. Moreover, we provide an example of a…
We study linearizability of actions of finite groups on cubic threefolds with non-isolated singularities.
We study actions by lattices in higher-rank (semi)simple Lie groups on compact manifolds. By classifying certain measures invariant under a related higher-rank abelian action (the diagonal action on the suspension space) we deduce a number…
We write out explicit proper Calabi-Yau structures, i. e. non-degenerate cyclic cocycles on the differential graded categories of matrix factorizations of regular functions with isolated critical points. The formulas involve the Kapustin-Li…
Quasi-free actions of finite groups on Cuntz algebras $\mathcal O_n$ for $n\geq 2$ are classified up to conjugacy by data in the representation ring. Partial results are obtained for quasi-free actions by compact groups.
We investigate the open mirror symmetry of certain non-complete intersection Calabi- Yau 3-folds, so called pfaffian Calabi-Yau. We perform the prediction of the number of disk invariants of several examples by using the direct integration…
We construct 16 new examples of Calabi--Yau threefolds with Picard group of rank 1. Each of these examples is obtained by smoothing the image of a primitive contraction with exceptional divisor being a del Pezzo surface of degree 6, 7 or…
