In the present paper we prove that, on a hyperk\"ahler manifold, walls of the k\"ahler cone and extremal rays of the Mori cone are determined by all divisors satisfying certain numerical conditions.

We prove existence, uniqueness and structure results for complete noncompact 7-dimensional G2-holonomy metrics with ALC (asymptotically locally conical) asymptotics. We regard such spaces as G2-analogues of ALF gravitational instantons in…

In this note we prove that toric K\"ahler metrics on complex projective space which are also $U(n)$-invariant are determined by their equivariant spectrum i.e. the list of eigenvalues of the Laplacian together with weights of the torus…

In this article we introduce the notion of Polyhedral Kahler manifolds, even dimensional polyhedral manifolds with unitary holonomy. We concentrate on the 4-dimensional case, prove that such manifolds are smooth complex surfaces, and…

The hyper-Mahler measures $m_k( 1+x_1+x_2),k\in\mathbb Z_{>1}$ and $m_k( 1+x_1+x_2+x_3),k\in\mathbb Z_{>1}$ are evaluated in closed form via Goncharov-Deligne periods, namely $\mathbb Q$-linear combinations of multiple polylogarithms at…

We prove that the moduli space of solutions to the PU(2) monopole equations is a smooth manifold of the expected dimension for simple, generic parameters such as (and including) the Riemannian metric on the given four-manifold. In a…

We show that a holomorphic automorphism on a projective hyperk\"ahler manifold that has positive topological entropy and has volume measure as the measure of maximal entropy, is necessarily a Kummer example, partially extending the…

We present measurements of various geometrical characteristics of monopole clusters in SU(2) lattice gauge theory. The maximal Abelian projection is employed and both infinite, or percolating cluster and finite clusters are considered. In…

This article finds constant scalar curvature Kahler metrics on certain compact complex surfaces. The surfaces considered are those admitting a holomorphic submersion to a curve, with fibres of genus at least 2. The proof is via an adiabatic…

We obtain explicitly all solutions of the SU(infinity) Toda field equation with the property that the associated Einstein-Weyl space admits a 2-sphere of divergence-free shear-free geodesic congruences. The solutions depend on an arbitrary…

We derive general expressions for the Kaehler form of the L^2-metric in terms of standard 2-forms on vortex moduli spaces. In the case of abelian vortices in gauged linear sigma-models, this allows us to compute explicitly the Kaehler class…

An almost K\"ahler structure is {\it extremal} if the Hermitian scalar curvature is a Killing potential [29]. When the almost complex structure is integrable it coincides with extremal K\"ahler metric in the sense of Calabi [8]. We observe…

We review our present understanding of heterotic compactifications on non-Kahler complex manifolds with torsion. Most of these manifolds can be obtained by duality chasing a consistent F-theory compactification in the presence of fluxes. We…

The main results presented in this dissertation are the following - We have shown that in $d=4$ weak hyperkahler torsion structures are the same that hypercomplex structures and the same that the Plebanski-Finley conformally invariant…

We describe U(N)-monopoles (N > 1) on Kerr black holes by the parameters of the moduli space of holomorphic vector U(N)-bundles over two-sphere with the help of the Grothendieck splitting theorem. For N = 2,3 we obtain this description in…

Adopting the Mahler measure from number theory, we introduce it to toric quiver gauge theories, and study some of its salient features and physical implications. We propose that the Mahler measure is a universal measure for the quiver,…

We describe in detail the space of the two K\"ahler parameters of the Calabi--Yau manifold $\P_4^{(1,1,1,6,9)}[18]$ by exploiting mirror symmetry. The large complex structure limit of the mirror, which corresponds to the classical large…

We study the scalar curvature of K\"ahler metrics that have cone singularities along a divisor, with a particular focus on certain specific classes of such metrics that enjoy some curvature estimates. Our main result is that, on the…

We generalize the notions of the Futaki invariant and extremal vector field of a compact K\"ahler manifold to the general almost-Kahler case and show the periodicity of the extremal vector field when the symplectic form represents an…

A high precision numerical analysis of the static, spherically symmetric SU(2) magnetic monopole equations is carried out. Using multi-shooting and multi-domain spectral methods, the mass of the monopole is obtained rather precisely as a…
