This is the first in a series of papers in which we develop a twistor-based method of constructing hyperkaehler metrics from holomorphic functions and elliptic curves. As an application, we revisit the Atiyah-Hitchin manifold and derive in…
A Hopf manifold is a compact complex manifold of which the universal covering is C^n\{0}. In this note we show that any Hopf manifold admits a locally conformally Kaehler structure (shortly lcK structure), by constructing a complex analytic…
F-theory, as a 12-dimensional theory that is a contender of the Theory of Everything, should be compactified into elliptically fibered threefolds or fourfolds of Calabi-Yau. Such manifolds have an elliptic curve as a fiber, and their bases…
The sphere partition function of Calabi-Yau gauged linear sigma models (GLSMs) has been shown to compute the exact Kaehler potential of the Kaehler moduli space of a Calabi-Yau. We propose a universal expression for the sphere partition…
We introduce self-dual manifolds and show that they can be used to encode mirror symmetry for affine-K\"{a}hler manifolds and for elliptic curves. Their geometric properties, especially the link with special lagrangian fibrations and the…
We present a complete classification of all arrangements of eight planes in projective threespace that give rise to double octic Calabi-Yau threefolds. Building on earlier work, we determine all 455 combinatorial types and describe the…
In this paper we construct Mabuchi $\mathcal{L}^{{\rm M}}_{\omega}$ functional and Aubin-Yau functionals $\mathcal{I}^{{\rm AY}}_{\omega}, \mathcal{J}^{{\rm AY}}_{\omega}$ on any compact complex three-folds. The method presented here will…
We prove modularity for a huge class of rigid Calabi-Yau threefolds over $\Q$. In particular we prove that every rigid Calabi-Yau threefold with good reduction at 3 and 7 is modular.
The aim of this paper is to prove a Mahler measure formula of a four-variable Laurent polynomial whose zero locus defines a Calabi-Yau threefold. We show that its Mahler measure is a rational linear combination of a special L-value of the…
In a previous article (a joint work with J. Manoharmayum) the modularity of a large class of rigid Calabi-Yau threefolds was established. To make that result more explicit, we recall (and re-prove) a result of Serre giving a bound for the…
In the setting of Donaldson's conjecture on the Calabi-Yau equation on symplectic 4-manifolds, we prove an a priori estimate which in the K\"ahler case resembles a classical estimate of Cheng-Yau.
The classification problem for holonomy of pseudo-Riemannian manifolds is actual and open. In the present paper, holonomy algebras of Lorentz-K\"ahler manifolds are classified. A simple construction of a metric for each holonomy algebra is…
For a given complex n-fold M we present an explicit construction of all complex (n+1)-folds which are principal holomorphic T2-fibrations over M. For physical applications we consider the case of M being a Calabi-Yau 2-fold. We show that…
We review the Kaluza-Klein reduction of Type IIA string theory on Calabi-Yau fourfolds and apply mirror symmetry to the resulting two-dimensional $ \mathcal{N}=(2,2) $ effective theories. In the course of the reduction we focus especially…
We perform a Kaluza-Klein reduction of IIB supergravity including purely gravitational $\alpha '^3$-corrections on a Calabi-Yau threefold, and perform the orientifold projection accounting for the presence of $O3/O7$-planes. We consider…
This is a survey article on mirror symmetry and Fourier-Mukai partners of Calabi-Yau threefolds with Picard number one based on recent works by the authors [HoTa1,2,3,4]. For completeness, mirror symmetry and Fourier-Mukai partners of K3…
In this article, we study the possibility of producing a Calabi-Yau threefold in positive characteristic which is a counter-example to Kodaira vanishing. The only known method to construct the counter-example is so called inductive method…
Let M be a Kaehler manifold with a free, holomorphic and Hamiltonian action of the standard n-torus T. We give a simple, explicit and canonical formula for the Kaehler potential on the Kaehler reduction of M. As a consequence we can derive…
Using the bilinear formalism, we consider multicomponent and matrix modified KP hierarchies. The main tool is the bilinear identity for the tau-function which is realized as an expectation value of a Clifford group element composed from…
We give an elementary argument to compute the $\alpha$-invariant of this Fano 3-fold, which implies the existence of a Kahler-Einstein metric.
