The motivation of this paper is to construct a deformation theory of coderivations of coassociative coalgebras. We introduce a notion of a Coder pair, that is, a coassociative coalgebra with a coderivation. Then we define a proper…

Let $Y$ be an effective Cartier divisor of a smooth variety $Z$. Let $X_{i}$, $i\in \{1,\cdots,n\}$ be a set of pairwise disjoint smooth subvarieties in $Y$ such that their union contains the singular locus of $Y$. In this paper, we give a…

We study the volumes of divisors in Calabi--Yau type varieties. We show that given a klt Calabi--Yau pair $(X,B)$ and an integral divisor $A$ on $X$, the volume of $A$ is in a fixed discrete set depending only on the dimension and…

Birational Calabi-Yau threefolds in the same deformation family provide a `weak' counterexample to the global Torelli problem, as long as they are not isomorphic. In this paper, it is shown that deformations of certain desingularized…

In this article we investigate the algebra and geometry of dihedral covers of smooth algebraic varieties. To this aim we first describe the Weil divisors and the Picard group of divisorial sheaves on normal double covers. Then we provide a…

The subject is partial resolution of singularities. Given an algebraic variety X (not necessarily equidimensional) in characteristic zero (or, more generally, a pair (X,D), where D is a divisor on X), we construct a functorial…

In this paper we mainly study Calabi-Yau varieties that arise as triple covers of products of projective lines branched along simple normal crossing divisors. For some of those families of Calabi-Yau varieties, the period maps factor…

Rational pairs, recently introduced by Koll\'ar and Kov\'acs, generalize rational singularities to pairs $(X,D)$. Here $X$ is a normal variety and $D$ is a reduced divisor on $X$. Integral to the definition of a rational pair is the notion…

Given a compact Kaehler manifold, we consider the complement U of a divisor with normal crossings. We study the variety of unitary representations of the fundamental group of U with certain restrictions related to the divisor. We show that…

Let X be a smooth complex variety and Y be a closed subvariety of X, or more generally, a closed subscheme of X. We are interested in invariants attached to the singularities of the pair (X, Y). We discuss various methods to construct such…

We introduce the notion of ST-pairs of triangulated subcategories, a prototypical example of which is the pair of the bound homotopy category and the bound derived category of a finite-dimensional algebra. For an ST-pair $(\C,\D)$, we…

Let $X$ be a normal projective variety admitting a polarized endomorphism $f$, i.e., $f^*H\sim qH$ for some ample divisor $H$ and integer $q>1$. It was conjectured by Broustet and Gongyo that $X$ is of Calabi-Yau type, i.e., $(X,\Delta)$ is…

This paper determines the full derived deformation theory of certain smooth rational curves C in Calabi-Yau 3-folds, by determining all higher A_\infty-products in its controlling DG-algebra. This geometric setup includes very general cases…

We relate Pandharipande-Thomas stable pair invariants on Calabi-Yau 3-folds containing the projective plane with those on the derived equivalent orbifolds via wall-crossing method. The difference is described by generalized Donaldson-Thomas…

We show the existence of semiorthogonal decompositions (SOD) of Pandharipande-Thomas (PT) stable pair moduli spaces on Calabi-Yau 3-folds with irreducible curve classes, assuming relevant moduli spaces are non-singular. The above result is…

The aim of this paper is to study geometric properties of non-degenerate smooth projective varieties of small degree from a birational point of view. First, using the positivity property of double point divisors and the adjunction mappings,…

We present a new method to solve certain $\bar{\partial}$-equations for logarithmic differential forms by using harmonic integral theory for currents on Kahler manifolds. The result can be considered as a $\bar{\partial}$-lemma for…

In this note, we explain an operadic proof of the BTT Theorem stating that the deformation theory of Calabi-Yau varieties is unobstructed. We also provide a short new proof of the non-commutative BTT for Calabi-Yau dg-categories. Finally,…

In this paper we relate the deformation theory of Ginzburg Calabi-Yau algebras to negative cyclic homology. We do this by exhibiting a DG-Lie algebra that controls this deformation theory and whose homology is negative cyclic homology. We…

We investigate topological properties of Calabi-Yau fourfolds and consider a wide class of explicit constructions in weighted projective spaces and, more generally, toric varieties. Divisors which lead to a non-perturbative superpotential…
