Given a polarized family of varieties over the unit disc, smooth except over the origin and with smooth fibers Calabi-Yau, we show that the origin lies at finite Weil-Petersson distance if and only if after a finite base change the family…
We propose compactifications of the moduli space of Bridgeland stability conditions of a triangulated category. Our construction arises from a viewing a stability condition as a metric on the underlying category and is inspired by the…
We explain microscopically why split attractor flows, known to underlie certain stationary BPS solutions of four dimensional N=2 supergravity, are the relevant data to describe wrapped D-branes in Calabi-Yau compactifications of type II…
This is the third and last in a series of papers working towards the construction of non-trivial Cayley fibrations using gluing methods. In this paper we will show two stability results for Cayley fibrations with certains types of conical…
Using a hyperK\"{a}hler rotation on complex structures of a Calabi-Yau 2-fold and rolling of an isotropic 2-submanifold in a symplectic 6-manifold, we construct, by gluing, a natural family of immersed Lagrangian deformations of a branched…
We construct a family of non-geometric Bridgeland stability conditions on certain wrapped Fukaya categories, using homological mirror symmetry and categorical K\"unneth formulae. These stability conditions correspond to certain holomorphic…
In this note we give an overview of some applications of the Calabi-Yau theorem to the construction of singular positive (1,1) currents on compact complex manifolds. We show how recent developments allow us to give streamlined proofs of…

We construct families of Calabi-Yau manifolds with dense set of complex multiplication fibers in an arbitrary dimension. We will also give explicite examples of complex multiplication fibers. For this construction we use families of curves…
We construct, as hypersurfaces in toric varieties, Calabi-Yau manifolds corresponding to F-theory vacua dual to E8*E8 heterotic strings compactified to six dimensions on K3 surfaces with non-semisimple gauge backgrounds. These vacua were…
We introduce a new notion of deformation of complex structure, which we use as an adaptation of Kodaira's theory of deformations, but that is better suited to the study of noncompact manifolds. We present several families of deformations…
This note is a report on the observation that some singular varieties admit Calabi--Yau coverings. As an application, we construct 18 new Calabi--Yau 3-folds with Picard number one that have some interesting properties.
We prove two gluing theorems for special Lagrangian (SL) conifolds in complex space C^m. Conifolds are a key ingredient in the compactification problem for moduli spaces of compact SLs in Calabi-Yau manifolds. In particular, our theorems…
The special geometries of two recently discovered Calabi-Yau threefolds with $h^{11}=1$ are analyzed in detail. These correspond to the 'minimal three-generation' manifolds with $h^{21}=4$ and the `24-cell' threefolds with $h^{21}=1$. It…

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…
We consider the procedure that constructs log Calabi-Yau compactifications of weak Landau-Ginzburg models of Fano varieties. We apply it for del Pezzo surfaces and coverings of projective spaces of index one. For the coverings of degree…
Special Legendrian Integral Cycles in $S^5$ are the links of the tangent cones to Special Lagrangian integer multiplicity rectifiable currents in Calabi-Yau 3-folds. We show that such Special Legendrian Cycles are smooth except possibly at…
We give an explicit example of log Calabi-Yau pairs that are log canonical and have a linearly decreasing Euler characteristic. This is constructed in terms of a degree two covering of a sequence of blow ups of three dimensional projective…
We investigate the swampland distance conjecture (SDC) in the complex moduli space of type II compactifications on one-parameter Calabi-Yau threefolds. This class of manifolds contains hundreds of examples and, in particular, a subset of 14…
