For smooth complete intersections in the projective spaces, we use the deformation invariance of Gromov-Witten invariants and results in classical invariant theory to study the symmetric reduction of the WDVV equation by the monodromy…
We prove one direction of homological mirror symmetry for complete intersections in algebraic tori, in all dimensions. The mirror geometry is not a space but a LG model, i.e. a pair given by a space and a regular function. We show that the…
We show Kawamata's effective nonvanishing conjecture (also known as the Ambro--Kawamata nonvanishing conjecture) holds for quasismooth weighted complete intersections of codimension $2$. Namely, for a quasismooth weighted complete…
We construct a wide class of non-geometric compactifications of type II superstring theories preserving N=1 space-time supersymmetry in four dimensions, starting from Calabi-Yau compactifications at Gepner points. Particular examples of…
Given a weighted flag variety $w\Sigma(\mu,u)$ corresponding to chosen fixed parameters $\mu$ and $u$, we present an algorithm to compute lists of all possible projectively Gorenstein $n$-folds, having canonical weight $k$ and isolated…
We prove that any Fano manifold of coindex three admitting nef tangent bundle is homogeneous.
We show that the global log canonical threshold of generic Fano complete intersections of index 1 and codimension $k$ in ${\mathbb P}^{M+k}$ is equal to 1 if $M\geqslant 3k+4$ and the highest degree of defining equations is at least 8. This…
In this paper we investigate codimension one Fano distributions on Fano manifolds with Picard number one. We classify Fano distributions of maximal index on complete intersections in weighted projective spaces, Fano contact manifolds,…
We study Fano schemes $F_k(X)$ for complete intersections $X$ in a projective toric variety $Y\subset \mathbb{P}^n$. Our strategy is to decompose $F_k(X)$ into closed subschemes based on the irreducible decomposition of $F_k(Y)$ as studied…
We prove that smooth Fano 5-folds with nef tangent bundles and Picard numbers greater than one are rational homogeneous manifolds.
We describe local mirror symmetry from a mathematical point of view and make several A-model calculations using the mirror principle (localization). Our results agree with B-model computations from solutions of Picard-Fuchs differential…
It is proven that any structure of a fibre space into varieties of Kodaira dimension zero on a generic Fano complete intersection of index one and dimension $M$ in ${\mathbb P}^{M+k}$ for $M\geq 2k+1$ is a pencil of hyperplane sections. We…
Mirror symmetry for del Pezzo surfaces was studied by Auroux, Katzarkov and Orlov who suggested that the mirror should take the form of a Landau-Ginzburg model with a particular type of elliptic fibration. This problem was then considered…
We obtain bounds on the least dimension of an affine space that can contain an $n$-dimensional submanifold without any pairs of parallel or intersecting tangent lines at distinct points. This problem is closely related to the generalized…
This paper aims to give some examples of diffeomorphic (or homeomorphic) low-dimensional complete intersections, which can be considered as a geometrical realization of classification theorems about complete intersections. A conjecture of…
In this paper, we classify smooth toric Fano 5-folds of index 2. There exist exactly 10 smooth toric Fano 5-folds of index 2 up to isomorphisms.
We study Landau-Ginzburg orbifolds $(f,G)$ with $f=x_1^n+\ldots+x_N^n$ and $G=S\ltimes G^d$, where $S\subseteq S_N$ and $G^d$ is either the maximal group of scalar symmetries of $f$ or the intersection of the maximal diagonal symmetries of…
This note outlines some first steps in the classification of Fano manifolds for which $c_1^2-2c_2$ is positive or nef.
We address the question whether so-called m-invariants of the N=2 super Virasoro algebra can be used for the construction of reasonable four-dimensional string models. It turns out that an infinite subset of those are pathological in the…
In this paper we classify the monomial complete intersection algebras, in two variables, and of positive characteristic, which has the strong Lef- schetz property. Together with known results, this gives a complete classi- fication of the…
