M-theory compactification leads one to consider 7-manifolds obtained by rolling Calabi-Yau threefolds in the web of Calabi-Yau moduli spaces. The resulting 7-space in general has singularities governed by the extremal transition undergone.…
There are two natural ways to count stable pairs or Joyce-Song pairs on $X=\mathrm{K3}\times\mathbb C$; one via weighted Euler characteristic and the other by virtual localisation of the reduced virtual class. Since $X$ is noncompact these…
In this paper we present a construction of stable bundles on Calabi-Yau threefolds using the method of bundle extensions. This construction applies to any given Calabi-Yau threefold with h^{1,1}>1. We give examples of stable bundles of rank…
An explicit description of the spectral data of stable U(n) vector bundles on elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau threefolds is given, extending previous work of Friedman, Morgan and Witten. The characteristic classes are computed and it is…
We prove the crepant resolution conjecture for Donaldson-Thomas invariants of toric Calabi-Yau 3-orbifolds with transverse A-singularities.
We introduce a special class of convex rational polyhedral cones which allows to construct generalized Calabi-Yau varieties of dimension $(d + 2(r-1))$, where $r$ is a positive integer and d is the dimension of critical string vacua with…
Studies of axion effective theories in the type IIB Calabi-Yau landscape have revealed that hierarchies in cycle volumes drive correlations between axion physics and the number of axions in a given model. We analyze distributions of divisor…
Stable, holomorphic vector bundles are constructed on an torus fibered, non-simply connected Calabi-Yau threefold using the method of bundle extensions. Since the manifold is multiply connected, we work with equivariant bundles on the…
We demonstrate a practical and efficient method for generating toric Calabi-Yau quiver theories, applicable to both D3 and M2 brane world-volume physics. A new analytic method is presented at low order parametres and an algorithm for the…
We establish some properties of the derived category of torus-equivariant coherent sheaves on a split toric stack bundle. Our main result is a semi-orthogonal decomposition of such a category.
We expand the theory of log canonical $3$-fold complements. We prove that if $X\rightarrow T$ is a $3$-dimensional contraction of log Calabi-Yau type, then we can find $B\geq 0$ on $X$ for which $(X,B)$ is log canonical and $n(K_X+B)\sim_T…
In this paper we prove a formula relating the equivariant Euler characteristic of $K$-theoretic stable envelopes to an object known as the index vertex for the cotangent bundle of the full flag variety. Our formula demonstrates that the…
This paper determines the full derived deformation theory of certain smooth rational curves C in Calabi-Yau 3-folds, by determining all higher A_\infty-products in its controlling DG-algebra. This geometric setup includes very general cases…
We show that equivariant elliptic genera of toric Calabi-Yau 3-folds are generalized weak Jacobi forms. We also introduce a notion of averaged equivariant elliptic genera of toric Calabi-Yau 3-folds, and show that they are ordinary weak…
We investigate the structure of a simple class of affine toric Calabi-Yau varieties that are defined from quiver representations based on finite eulerian directed graphs (digraphs). The vanishing first Chern class of these varieties just…
As an analogy to Gopakumar-Vafa conjecture on Calabi-Yau 3-folds, Klemm-Pandharipande defined Gopakumar-Vafa type invariants of a Calabi-Yau 4-fold $X$ using Gromov-Witten theory. When $X$ is holomorphic symplectic, Gromov-Witten invariants…
We prove a comparison formula for the Donaldson-Thomas curve-counting invariants of two smooth and projective Calabi-Yau threefolds related by a flop. By results of Bridgeland any two such varieties are derived equivalent. Furthermore there…
We prove the motivic version of the DT/PT-correspondence in \cite{PT} and the motivic flop formula of the curve counting invariants in the derived category of smooth Calabi-Yau threefold DM stacks. The main method we use is Bridgeland's…
We ask about the simply connected compact smooth 6-manifolds which can support structures of Calabi-Yau threefolds. In particular, we study the interesting case of Calabi-Yau threefolds $X$ with second betti number 3. We have a cup-product…
We associate to each toric vector bundle on a toric variety X(Delta) a "branched cover" of the fan Delta together with a piecewise-linear function on the branched cover. This construction generalizes the usual correspondence between toric…
