Gromov-Witten theory is used to define an enumerative geometry of curves in Calabi-Yau 4-folds. The main technique is to find exact solutions to moving multiple cover integrals. The resulting invariants are analogous to the BPS counts of…
We survey various classical results on invariants of polynomials, or equivalently, of binary forms, focussing on explicit calculations for invariants of polynomials of degrees 2, 3, 4.
We prove the existence of asymptotically cylindrical (ACyl) Calabi-Yau 3-folds starting with (almost) any deformation family of smooth weak Fano 3-folds. This allow us to exhibit hundreds of thousands of new ACyl Calabi-Yau 3-folds;…
We construct higher-dimensional Calabi-Yau varieties defined over a given number field with Zariski dense sets of rational points. We give two elementary constructions in arbitrary dimensions as well as another construction in dimension…
We construct a mixed invariant of non-orientable surfaces from the Lee and Bar-Natan deformations of Khovanov homology and use it to distinguish pairs of surfaces bounded by the same knot, including some exotic examples.
There is a classical geometric construction which uses a binary quadratic form to define an involution on the space of binary d-ics. We give a complete characterization of a general class of such involutions which are definable using…
Let $X$ be a complex four-dimensional compact Calabi-Yau manifold equipped with a K\"ahler form $\omega$ and a holomorphic four-form $\Omega$. Under certain assumptions, we define Donaldson-Thomas type deformation invariants by studying the…
We show an example of a non-archimedean version of the Calabi-Yau theorem in complex geometry. Precisely, we consider totally degenerate abelian varieties and certain probability measures on their associated analytic spaces in the sense of…
Several new invariants for Lie algebroids have been discovered recently. We give an overview of these invariants and establish several relationships between them.
A log Calabi--Yau pair consists of a proper variety $X$ and a divisor $D$ on it such that $K_X+D$ is numerically trivial. A folklore conjecture predicts that the dual complex of $D$ is homeomorphic to the quotient of a sphere by a finite…
In this paper we deal with Calabi-Yau structures associated with (differential graded versions of) deformed multiplicative preprojective algebras, of which we provide concrete algebraic descriptions. Along the way, we prove a general result…
Recently, Cao-Maulik-Toda defined stable pair invariants of a compact Calabi-Yau 4-fold $X$. Their invariants are conjecturally related to the Gopakumar-Vafa type invariants of $X$ defined using Gromov-Witten theory by Klemm-Pandharipande.…
We define one-point disk invariants of a smooth projective Calabi-Yau (CY) complete intersection (CI) in the presence of an anti-holomorphic involution via localization. We show that these invariants are rational numbers and obtain a…
In the present paper we propose a combinatorial approach to study the so called double octic Clabi--Yau threefolds. We use this description to give a complete classification of double octics with $h^{1,2}\le1$ and to derive their geometric…
We show the birational boundedness of anti-canonical irreducible hypersurfaces which form 3-fold plt pairs. We also treat a collection of Du Val K3 surfaces which is birationally bounded but unbounded.
Let $X$ be a general conic bundle over the projective plane with branch curve of degree at least 19. We prove that there is no normal projective variety $Y$ that is birational to $X$ and such that some multiple of its anticanonical divisor…
This paper presents the current status on modularity of Calabi-Yau varieties since the last update in 2003. We will focus on Calabi-Yau varieties of dimension at most three. Here modularity refers to at least two different types: arithmetic…
In this note, we study quasi-Albanese morphisms for log canonical Calabi-Yau pairs and obtain several structural results. As an application, we prove a characterization of toric pairs.
There are easy "polynomial" deformations of Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in toric varieties performed by changing the coefficients of the defining polynomial of the hypersurface. In this paper, we explicitly constructed the ``non-polynomial''…
We prove that the Calabi-Yau equation can be solved on the Kodaira-Thurston manifold for all given $T^2$-invariant volume forms. This provides support for Donaldson's conjecture that Yau's theorem has an extension to symplectic…
