This paper classifies toric Fano 3-folds with singular locus { 1/k(1,1,1) } for any positive integer k, building on the work of Batyrev and Watanabe-Watanabe. This is achieved by completing an equivalent problem in the language of Fano…

The aim of this paper is to prove Golyshev's conjecture in the cases of Fano threefolds $V_{10}$ and $V_{14}$. This conjecture states modularity of D3 equations for smooth Fano threefolds with Picard group Z. More precisely, we find…

We construct six-dimensional (6D) F-theory models in which discrete $\mathbb{Z}_5, \mathbb{Z}_4, \mathbb{Z}_3,$ and $\mathbb{Z}_2$ gauge symmetries arise. We demonstrate that a special family of "Fano 3-folds" is a useful tool for…

We prove modularity for any irreducible crystalline $\ell$-adic odd 2-dimensional Galois representation (with finite ramification set) unramified at 3 verifying an "ordinarity at 3" easy to check condition, with Hodge-Tate weights $\{0, w…

We present a new construction of mirror pairs of Calabi-Yau manifolds by smoothing normal crossing varieties, consisting of two quasi-Fano manifolds. We introduce a notion of mirror pairs of quasi-Fano manifolds with anticanonical…

We define instanton sheaves of higher rank on smooth Fano threefolds X of Picard rank one and show that their topological classification depends on two integers, namely the rank n (or the half of it, if the Fano index of X is odd) and the…

In fivebrane compactifications on 3-manifolds, we point out the importance of all flat connections in the proper definition of the effective 3d N=2 theory. The Lagrangians of some theories with the desired properties can be constructed with…

We prove a generalization of the algebraic version of Tian conjecture. Precisely, for any smooth strictly increasing function $g:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}_{>0}$ with ${\rm log}\circ g$ convex, we define the $\mathbf{H}^g$-invariant on a Fano…

Let X be a compact Kahler orbifold without \C-codimension-1 singularities. Let D be a suborbifold divisor in X such that D \supset Sing(X) and -pK_X = q[D] for some p, q \in \N with q > p. Assume that D is Fano. We prove the following two…

We study a modified version of the Ginzburg-Landau model suggested by Ward and show that Hopfions exist in it as stable static solutions, for values of the Hopf invariant up to at least 7. We also find that their properties closely follow…

This article constructs a smooth weak Fano threefold of Picard number two with small anti-canonical morphism that arises as a blowup of a smooth curve of genus 5 and degree 8 in $\mathbb{P}^3$. While the existence of this weak Fano was…

We obtain the exhaustive list of 337 faithful spherical actions of rank two or less on locally factorial Fano manifolds of dimension four or less. As a preliminary step, we determine the explicit list of spherical homogeneous spaces of…

The mirror dual of a smooth toric Fano surface $X$ equipped with an anticanonical divisor $E$ is a Landau-Ginzburg model with superpotential, W. Carl-Pumperla-Siebert give a definition of the the superpotential in terms of tropical disks…

We prove a Bogomolov-Gieseker type inequality for the third Chern characters of stable sheaves on Calabi-Yau 3-folds and a large class of Fano 3-folds with given rank and first and second Chern classes. The proof uses the spreading-out…

We consider the conjectures from the paper by Katzarkov, Kontsevich, and Pantev about Landau-Ginzburg Hodge numbers associated to tamely compactifiable Landau-Ginzburg models. We test these conjectures in case of dimension two, verifying…

In this paper, we establish the convergence for Gromov-Witten invariant of elliptic orbifold $\mathbb{P}^1$ with type $(3,3,3), (4,4,2)$ and $(6,3,2)$. We also prove the mirror theorems of Gromov-Witten theory for those orbifolds and FJRW…

In this article we discuss some numerical parts of the mirror conjecture. For any 3 - dimensional Calabi - Yau manifold author introduces a generalization of the Casson invariant known in 3 - dimensional geometry, which is called Casson -…

We prove the genus-one restriction of the all-genus Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau conjecture of Chiodo and Ruan, stated in terms of the geometric quantization of an explicit symplectomorphism determined by genus-zero invariants. This provides…

We give a criterion for slope-stability of the syzygy bundle of a globally generated ample line bundle on a smooth projective variety of Picard number $1$ in terms of Hilbert polynomial. As applications, we prove the stability of syzygy…

We obtain a classification of a Q-factorial Q-Fano 3-fold $X$ with the following properties: the Picard number of $X$ is 1; the Gorenstein index of $X$ is 2; the Fano index of $X$ is 1/2; $h^0 (-K_X) \geq 4$; there exists an index 2 point…
