We prove Fourier restriction estimates by means of the polynomial partitioning method for compact subsets of any sufficiently smooth hyperbolic hypersurface in threedimensional euclidean space. Our approach exploits in a crucial way the…

In the paper we study two types of relations: a one is between the elliptic genus of Calabi-Yau manifolds and Jacobi modular forms, another one is between the second quantized elliptic genus, Siegel modular forms and Lorentzian Kac-Moody…

We construct all quintic invariants in five variables with simple Non-Abelian finite symmetry groups. These define Calabi-Yau three-folds which are left invariant by the action of A_5, A_6 or PSL_2(11).

We call a projective Calabi-Yau (CY) 3-fold almost generic if it has only isolated nodes as singularities and the homology classes of all of the exceptional curves in an analytic small resolution are non-trivial but torsion. Such a…

We present a method to construct the extended K\"ahler cone of any Calabi-Yau threefold by using Gopakumar-Vafa invariants to identify all geometric phases that are related by flops or Weyl reflections. In this way we obtain the K\"ahler…

We exhibit three double octic Calabi--Yau threefolds over the certain quadratic fields and prove their modularity. The non-rigid threefold has two conjugate Hilbert modular forms of weight [4,2] and [2,4] attached while the two rigid…

We explicitly construct the Kummer variety associated to the Jacobian of a hyperelliptic curve of genus 3 that is defined over a field of characteristic not equal to 2 and has a Weierstra{\ss} point defined over the same field. We also…

We describe explicitly the chamber structure of the movable cone for a general complete intersection Calabi--Yau threefold in a non-split $(n + 4)$-dimensional $\mathbb{P}^{n}$-ruled Fano manifold of index $n + 1$ and Picard number two.…

We give a differential-geometric construction of Calabi-Yau fourfolds by the `doubling' method, which was introduced in \cite{DY14} to construct Calabi-Yau threefolds. We also give examples of Calabi-Yau fourfolds from toric Fano fourfolds.…

We study rational curves of degree two on a smooth sextic 4-fold and their counting invariant defined using Donaldson-Thomas theory of Calabi-Yau 4-folds. By comparing it with the corresponding Gromov-Witten invariant, we verify a…

Let X be the quotient of a smooth projective variety over a field by a finite group action (in which case we say X is pseudo-smooth), such that the singularities of X are isolated k-rational points. Let Y be obtained by blowing up these…

A generalised notion of Kac-Moody algebra is defined using smooth maps from a compact real manifold $\mathcal{M}$ to a finite-dimensional Lie group, by means of complete orthonormal bases for a Hermitian inner product on the manifold and a…

This paper pursues the study of the Calabi-Yau equation on certain symplectic non-Kaehler 4-manifolds, building on a key example of Tosatti-Weinkove in which more general theory had proved less effective. Symplectic 4-manifolds admitting a…

For a generic anti-canonical hypersurface in each smooth toric Fano 4-fold with rank 2 Picard group, we prove there exist three isolated rational curves in it. Moreover, for all these 4-folds except one, the contractions of generic…

We study Calabi--Yau 3-folds with infinitely many divisorial contractions. We also suggest a method to describe Calabi--Yau 3-folds with the infinite automorphism group.

We study type one generalized complex and generalized Calabi--Yau manifolds. We introduce a cohomology class that obstructs the existence of a globally defined, closed 2-form which agrees with the symplectic form on the leaves of the…

We develop a general classification theory for Brumer's dihedral quintic polynomials by means of Kummer theory arising from certain elliptic curves. We also give a similar theory for cubic polynomials.

In this paper we discuss four methods of proving modularity of Calabi--Yau threefolds with $h^{12}=1$: existence of elliptic ruled surfaces inside (Hulek-Verrill), correspondence with a product of an elliptic curve and a K3 surface…

In this paper we develop the formalism of rational complex Bezier curves. This framework is a simple extension of the CAD paradigm, since it describes arc of curves in terms of control polygons and weights, which are extended to complex…

We define relative Gromov-Witten invariants and establish a general gluing theory of pseudo-holomorphic curves for symplectic cutting and contact surgery. Then, we use our general gluing theory to study the change of GW-invariants of…
