In arXiv:2011.08830 we established a series of correspondences relating five enumerative theories of log Calabi-Yau surfaces, i.e. pairs $(Y,D)$ with $Y$ a smooth projective complex surface and $D=D_1+\dots +D_l$ an anticanonical divisor on…

A K3 category is by definition a Calabi-Yau category of dimension two. Geometrically K3 categories occur as bounded derived categories of (twisted) coherent sheaves on K3 or abelian surfaces. A K3 category is generic if there are no…

We construct higher Chow cycles of type (2,1) on some families of K3 surfaces with non-symplectic automorphisms of order 3 and prove that our cycles are indecomposable for very general members. The proof is a combination of some…

Motivated by S-duality modularity conjectures in string theory, we study the Donaldson-Thomas type invariants of pure 2-dimensional sheaves inside a nonsingular threefold X in three different situations: (1). X is a K3 fibration over a…

We define additional gradings on two generalisations of Khovanov homology (one due to the first author, the other due to the second), and use them to define invariants of various kinds of embeddings. These include invariants of links in…

Inspired by constructions over the complex numbers of Dolgachev and Alexeev-Engel, we define moduli stacks $\mathcal{M}_{(L,\mathcal{A})/\mathbb{Z}}$ of lattice-polarized K3 surfaces over arbitrary bases, paying particular attention to the…

In this paper, we investigate the space of certain weak stability conditions on the triangulated category of D0-D2-D6 bound states on a smooth projective Calabi-Yau 3-fold. In the case of a quintic 3-fold, the resulting space is interpreted…

We show that fiberwise stable vector bundles are preserved by relative Fourier-Mukai transforms between elliptic threefolds with relative Picard number one. Using these bundles we define new invariants of elliptic fibrations, and we relate…

We define the higher-order Alexander modules $A_{n,i}(\mathcal{U})$ and higher-order degrees $\delta_{n,i}(\mathcal{U})$ which are invariants of a complex hypersurface complement $\mathcal{U}$. These invariants come from the module…

In order to support the odd moduli in models of (type IIB) string compactification, we classify the Calabi-Yau threefolds with h^{1,1}<=4 which exhibit pairs of identical divisors, with different line-bundle charges, mapping to each other…

We survey recent advances in the theory of moduli spaces of stable sheaves on hyperk\"ahler manifolds of dimension greater than $2$. We start by recalling the well-known theory in dimension $2$, i.e.~for $K3$ surfaces, emphasizing the…

We discuss Donaldson-Thomas (DT) invariants of torsion sheaves with 2 dimensional support on a smooth projective surface in an ambient non-compact Calabi Yau fourfold given by the total space of a rank 2 bundle on the surface. We prove that…

The main result of the present paper is a construction of relative moduli spaces of stable sheaves over the stack of quasipolarized projective surfaces. For this, we use the theory of good moduli spaces, whose study was initiated by Alper.…

We study the locus of smooth hypersurfaces inside the Hilbert scheme of a smooth projective complex variety. In the spirit of scanning, we construct a map to a continuous section space of a projective bundle, and show that it induces an…

We conjecture an explicit formula for the $K$-theoretically refined Vafa-Witten invariants of the Enriques surface. By a wall-crossing argument the conjecture is equivalent to a new conjectural formula for the K-theoretically refined…

For $g,n\geq 0$ a 3-dimensional Calabi-Yau $A_\infty$-category $\mathcal C_{g,n}$ is constructed such that a component of the space of Bridgeland stability conditions, $\mathrm{Stab}(\mathcal C_{g,n})$, is a moduli space of quadratic…

We use mirror symmetry, the refined holomorphic anomaly equation and modularity properties of elliptic singularities to calculate the refined BPS invariants of stable pairs on non-compact Calabi-Yau manifolds, based on del Pezzo surfaces…

One can assign to four-dimensional N=2 supersymmetric Heterotic string vacua a set of classification invariants including a lattice $\Lambda_S$ and vector-valued modular forms. Some of the classification invariants are constrained by the…

We study the stable pairs theory of local curves in 3-folds with descendent insertions. The rationality of the partition function of descendent invariants is established for the full local curve geometry (equivariant with respect to the…

In this paper we adapt some techniques developed for K3 surfaces, to study the geometry of a family of projective varieties in $\Pl_K^2 \times \Pl_K^2 \times \Pl_K^2$ defined as the intersection of a form of degree $(2,2,2)$ and a form of…
