A Calabi-Yau threefold is called of type K if it admits an \'etale Galois covering by the product of a K3 surface and an elliptic curve. In our previous paper, based on Oguiso-Sakurai's fundamental work, we provide the full classification…

Let $M$ be a complete Ricci-flat Kahler manifold with one end and assume that this end converges at an exponential rate to $[0,\infty) \times X$ for some compact connected Ricci-flat manifold $X$. We begin by proving general structure…

The first part of this paper discusses general procedures for finding numerical approximations to distinguished Kahler metrics, such as Calabi-Yau metrics, on complex projective manifolds. These procedures are closely related to ideas from…

On an affine flat manifold with coordinates x^j and convex local potential function f, we call the affine Kahler metric f_{ij} dx^i dx^j semi-flat Calabi-Yau if it satisfies det f_{ij} = 1. Recently Gross-Wilson have constructed many such…

The conjectural equivalence of curve counting on Calabi-Yau 3-folds via stable maps and stable pairs is discussed. By considering Calabi-Yau 3-folds with K3 fibrations, the correspondence naturally connects curve and sheaf counting on K3…

In this paper, we make progress on understanding the collapsing behavior of Calabi-Yau metrics on a degenerating family of polarized Calabi-Yau manifolds. In the case of a family of smooth Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in projective space…

We study the collapsing of Calabi-Yau metrics and of Kahler-Ricci flows on fiber spaces where the base is smooth. We identify the collapsed Gromov-Hausdorff limit of the Kahler-Ricci flow when the divisorial part of the discriminant locus…

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…

We consider smooth Riemannian surfaces whose curvature $K$ satisfies the relation $\Delta\log|K-c|=aK+b$ away from points where $K=c$ for some $(a,b,c)\in\mathbb{R}^3$, which we call generalized Ricci surfaces. We prove some isometric…

We provide an explicit construction of Ricci-flat K3 metrics. It employs the technology of D-geometry, which in the case of interest is equivalent to a hyper-K\"ahler quotient. We relate it to the construction of arXiv:1810.10540, and in…

We study the behaviour of families of Ricci-flat Kahler metrics on a projective Calabi-Yau manifold when the Kahler classes degenerate to the boundary of the ample cone. We prove that if the limit class is big and nef the Ricci-flat metrics…

We show that the moduli space of Ricci flat metrics of unit volume (including orbifold metrics) on a K3 surface is simply connected and that it has the same rational cohomology as the automorphism group of the K3 lattice $(-E_8)^{\oplus…

Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. This paper addresses the Yamabe-type problem of finding a conformal scalar-flat metric on M, which has the boundary as a constant mean curvature hypersurface. When the boundary is…

I construct some smooth Calabi-Yau threefolds in characteristic two and three that do not lift to characteristic zero. These threefolds are pencils of supersingular K3-surfaces. The construction depends on Moret-Bailly's pencil of abelian…

This paper is a sequel to arXiv:1108.0967. We further study Gromov-Hausdorff collapsing limits of Ricci-flat K\"ahler metrics on abelian fibered Calabi-Yau manifolds. Firstly, we show that in the same setup as arXiv:1108.0967, if the…

We propose two conjectures about Ricci-flat metrics: Conjecture 1: A Ricci-flat projectively induced metric is flat. Conjecture 2: A Ricci-flat metric on an $n$-dimensional complex manifold such that the $a_{n+1}$ coefficient of the TYZ…

Using numerical methods for finding Ricci-flat metrics, we explore the spectrum of local operators in two-dimensional conformal field theories defined by sigma models on Calabi-Yau targets at large volume. Focusing on the examples of K3 and…

A notion of asymptotically conical K\"ahler orbifold is introduced, and, following previous existence results in the setting of asymptotically conical manifolds, it is shown that a certain complex Monge-Amp\'ere equation admits a rapidly…

An examples of the Ricci-flat metric associated with the equations of Navier-Stokes are constructed. Their properties are investigated.

Right after Yau's resolution of the Calabi conjecture in the late 1970s, physicists Page and Gibbons-Pope conjectured that one may approximate Ricci-flat K\"{a}hler metrics on the $K3$ surface with metrics having "almost special holonomy"…
