We study equations on a principal bundle over a compact complex manifold coupling a connection on the bundle with a Kahler structure on the base. These equations generalize the conditions of constant scalar curvature for a Kahler metric and…

This is the author's PhD thesis. Two main sections address various aspects of mirror symmetry for compact Calabi-Yau threefolds and the roles that classically modular varieties play in string theory compactifications. The main results…

This paper is devoted to the study of degenerate critical elliptic equations of Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg type. By means of blow-up analysis techniques, we prove an a-priori estimate in a weighted space of continuous functions. From this…

Generalization of twistor spinors to K\"ahler manifolds which are called K\"ahlerian twistor spinors are considered. We find the differential equation satisfied by the bilinear forms of K\"ahlerian twistor spinors. We show that the bilinear…

We construct compact examples of D-manifolds for type IIB strings. The construction has a natural interpretation in terms of compactification of a 12 dimensional `F-theory'. We provide evidence for a more natural reformulation of type IIB…

We consider the stationary semilinear Schr\"odinger equation $-\Delta u + a(x) u = f(x,u)$, $u\in H^1(\R^N)$, where $a$ and $f$ are continuous functions converging to some limits $a_\infty>0$ and $f_\infty=f_\infty(u)$ as $|x|\to\infty$. In…

We prove the existence of global sections trivializing the Hodge bundles on the Hodge metric completion space of the Torelli space of Calabi--Yau manifolds, a global splitting property of these Hodge bundles. We also prove that a compact…

We prove the long time existence and uniqueness of solution to a parabolic quaternionic Monge-Amp\`{e}re type equation on a compact hyperK\"{a}hler manifold. We also show that after normalization, the solution converges smoothly to the…

We establish various stability results for solutions of complex Monge-Amp\`ere equations in big cohomology classes, generalizing results that were known to hold in the context of K\"ahler classes.

Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold of dimension $n$ and $\omega$ a K\"ahler form on $X$. We consider the complex Monge-Amp\`ere equation $(dd^c u+\omega)^n=\mu$, where $\mu$ is a given positive measure on $X$ of suitable mass and $u$ is…

Let $(X,\omega)$ be a compact Hermitian manifold. We establish a stability result for solutions to complex Monge-Amp\`ere equations with right-hand side in $L^p$, $p>1$. Using this we prove that the solutions are H\"older continuous with…

The incompressible Euler equations on a compact Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ take the form \begin{align*} \partial_t u + \nabla_u u &= - \mathrm{grad}_g p \mathrm{div}_g u &= 0. \end{align*} We show that any quadratic ODE $\partial_t y =…

The purpose of this note is to extend the results obtained in [arXiv:1303.6970] in two ways. First, the six-dimensional F-theory compactifications with U(1) x U(1) gauge symmetry on elliptic Calabi-Yau threefolds, constructed as a…
