We introduce the notion of affine Legendrian submanifolds in Sasakian manifolds and define a canonical volume called the $\phi$-volume as odd dimensional analogues of affine Lagrangian (totally real or purely real) geometry. Then we derive…

We show that every toric Sasaki-Einstein manifold $S$ admits a special Legendrian submanifold $L$ which arises as the link ${\rm fix}(\tau)\cap S$ of the fixed point set ${\rm fix}(\tau)$ of an anti-holomorphic involution $\tau$ on the cone…

The theory of surfaces in Euclidean space can be naturally formulated in the more general context of Legendre surfaces into the space of contact elements. We address the question of deformability of Legendre surfaces with respect to the…

Unlike Legendrian submanifolds, the deformation problem of coisotropic submanifolds can be obstructed. Starting from this observation, we single out in the contact setting the special class of integral coisotropic submanifolds as the direct…

We shall develop a new deformation theory of geometric structures in terms of closed differential forms. This theory is a generalization of Kodaira -Spencer theory and further we obtain a criterion of unobstructed deformations. We apply…

This article studies the deformation problem for compact special Lagrangians with boundary in a Calabi--Yau manifold, with each boundary component constrained along a given Lagrangian submanifold. The tangent vectors generating such…

An odd deformation of a super Riemann surface $\mathcal S$ is a deformation of $\mathcal S$ by variables of odd parity. In this article we study the obstruction theory of these odd deformations $\mathcal X$ of $\mathcal S$. We view…

Special Lagrangian submanifolds are submanifolds of a Calabi-Yau manifold calibrated by the real part of the holomorphic volume form. In this paper we use elliptic theory for edge-degenerate differential operators on singular manifolds to…

We discuss a deformation of Sasakian structure in the presence of totally skew-symmetric torsion by introducing odd dimensional manifolds whose metric cones are K\"ahler with torsion. It is shown that such a geometry inherits similar…

In this article we study the deformation theory of conically singular Cayley submanifolds. In particular, we prove a result on the expected dimension of a moduli space of Cayley deformations of a conically singular Cayley submanifold.…

Using the structural theorems developed in [Hua13], we study the deformation theory of coisotropic submanifolds in contact manifolds, under the assumption that the characteristic foliation is nonsingular. In the "middle" dimensions, we find…

This paper first generalises the Bogomolov-Tian-Todorov unobstructedness theorem to the case of Calabi-Yau threefolds with canonical singularities. The deformation space of such a Calabi-Yau threefold is no longer smooth, but the general…

In this paper we prove the unobstructedness of the deformation of integral coisotropic submanifolds in symplectic manifolds, which can be viewed as a natural generalization of results of Weinstein for Lagrangian submanifolds.

We give the characterization of Arnol'd-Mather type for stable singular Legendre immersions. The most important building block of the theory is providing a module structure on the space of infinitesimal integral deformations by means of the…

This paper is devoted to deformations of Lagrangian submanifolds contained in the singular locus of a log-symplectic manifold. We prove a normal form result for the log-symplectic structure around such a Lagrangian, which we use to extract…

Systems of ordinary differential equations (or dynamical forms in Lagrangian mechanics), induced by embeddings of smooth fibered manifolds over one-dimensional basis, are considered in the class of variational equations. For a given…

We prove the existence of Sasaki-Einstein metrics on certain simply connected 5-manifolds where until now existence was unknown. All of these manifolds have non-trivial torsion classes. On several of these we show that there are a countable…
