We exhibit examples of pairs $(X,D)$ where $X$ is a smooth projective variety and $D$ is an anticanonical reduced simple normal crossing divisor such that the deformations of $(X,D)$ are obstructed. These examples are constructed via toric…
We introduce new invariants in equivariant birational geometry and study their relation to modular symbols and cohomology of arithmetic groups.
In our previous paper with Maulik, we proposed a conjectural Gopakumar-Vafa (GV) type formula for the generating series of stable pair invariants on Calabi-Yau (CY) 4-folds. The purpose of this paper is to give an interpretation of the…
In this short note we observe that the recent examples of derived-equivalent Calabi-Yau 3-folds with different fundamental groups also have different Brauer groups, using a little topological K-theory.
P. Berglund, T. H\"ubsch, and M. Henningson proposed a method to construct mirror symmetric Calabi-Yau manifolds. They considered a pair consisting of an invertible polynomial and of a finite (abelian) group of its diagonal symmetries…
We obtain mirror formulas for the genus 1 Gromov-Witten invariants of projective Calabi-Yau complete intersections. We follow the approach previously used for projective hypersurfaces by extending the scope of its algebraic results; there…
In the studies on the modularity conjecture for rigid Calabi-Yau threefolds several examples with the unique level 8 cusp form were constructed. According to the Tate Conjecture correspondences inducing isomorphisms on the middle…
It is known that a maximal intersection log canonical Calabi-Yau surface pair is crepant birational to a toric pair. This does not hold in higher dimension: this paper presents some examples of maximal intersection Calabi-Yau pairs that…
In this article, we give a characterization of log Calabi--Yau pairs of complexity zero and arbitrary index. As an application, we show that a log Calabi--Yau pair of birational complexity zero admits a crepant birational model which is a…
This note is a report on the observation that the Enriques-Fano threefolds with terminal cyclic quotient singularities admit Calabi-Yau threefolds as their double coverings. We calculate the invariants of those Calabi-Yau threefolds when…
We prove the non-vanishing conjecture for lc pairs $(X,\Delta)$ when $X$ is of Calabi--Yau type.
We consider the Yamabe invariant of a compact orbifold with finitely many singular points. We prove a fundamental inequality for the estimate of the invariant from above, which also includes a criterion for the non-positivity of it.…
We study Calabi--Yau 3-folds with infinitely many divisorial contractions. We also suggest a method to describe Calabi--Yau 3-folds with the infinite automorphism group.
We construct valuatively independent bases for the space of sections of an ample line bundle on a log Calabi--Yau pair over a discretely valued field and the space of regular functions on an affine CY pair with maximal boundary. While the…
In this note, an overview of Calabi-Yau varieties in positive characteristic is presented. Although Calabi-Yau varieties in characteristic zero are unobstructed, there are examples of Calabi-Yau threefolds in positive characteristic which…
We investigate a multiple mirror phenomenon arising from Berglund-H\"ubsh-Krawitz mirror symmetry. We prove that the different mirror Calabi-Yau orbifolds which arise in this context are in fact birational to one another.
We review the construction of families of projective varieties, in particular Calabi--Yau threefolds, as quasilinear sections in weighted flag varieties. We also describe a construction of tautological orbi-bundles on these varieties, which…
We show that for any smooth Calabi--Yau variety, its index can be realized as the index of a Kawamata log terminal (klt) Calabi--Yau pair of lower dimension with standard coefficients. Our approach is based on an inductive argument on the…
We shall give an explicit pair of birational projective Calabi--Yau threefolds which are rigid, non-homeomorphic, but are connected by projective flat deformation over some connected base scheme.
In this paper we discuss recent progress on the modularity of Calabi-Yau varieties. We focus mostly on the case of surfaces and threefolds. We will also discuss some progress on the structure of the L-function in connection with mirror…
