A banana manifold is a compact Calabi-Yau threefold, fibered by Abelian surfaces, whose singular fibers have a singular locus given by a "banana configuration of curves". A basic example is given by $X_{ban}$, the blowup along the diagonal…

A banana manifold is a Calabi-Yau threefold fibered by Abelian surfaces whose singular fibers contain banana configurations: three rational curves meeting each other in two points. A nano-manifold is a Calabi-Yau threefold $X$ with very…

The Banana manifold $X_{\text{Ban}}$ is a compact Calabi-Yau threefold constructed as the conifold resolution of the fiber product of a generic rational elliptic surface with itself, first studied by Bryan. We compute Katz's genus 0…

We further the study of the Donaldson-Thomas theory of the banana threefolds which were recently discovered and studied in [Bryan'19]. These are smooth proper Calabi-Yau threefolds which are fibred by Abelian surfaces such that the singular…

Let $({\bf X},\omega_{\bf X}^*)$ be a separated, $-2$-shifted symplectic derived $\mathbb C$-scheme, in the sense of Pantev, Toen, Vezzosi and Vaquie arXiv:1111.3209, of complex virtual dimension ${\rm vdim}_{\mathbb C}{\bf X}=n\in\mathbb…

The multi-Banana configuration $\widehat{F}_{mb}$ is a local Calabi-Yau threefold of Schoen type. Namely, $\widehat{F}_{mb}$ is a conifold resolution of $\widehat{I}_v \times_{\bf{D}} \widehat{I}_w$, where $\widehat{I}_v \to {\bf{D}}$ is an…

We develop the theory of derived differential geometry in terms of bundles of curved $L_\infty[1]$-algebras, i.e. dg manifolds of positive amplitudes. We prove the category of derived manifolds is a category of fibrant objects. Therefore,…

Our goal in this paper is to discuss a conjectural correspondence between enumerative geometry of curves in Calabi-Yau 5-folds $Z$ and 1-dimensional sheaves on 3-folds $X$ that are embedded in $Z$ as fixed points of certain…

We define Donaldson-Thomas invariants of Calabi-Yau orbifolds and we develop a topological vertex formalism for computing them. The basic combinatorial object is the orbifold vertex, a generating function for the number of 3D partitions…

Considering the complex n-dimension Calabi-Yau homogeneous hyper-surfaces ${\cal H}_{n}$ and using algebraic geometry methods, we develop the crossed product algebra method, introduced by Berenstein et Leigh in hep-th/0105229, and build the…

Let $X$ be a smooth algebraic variety over $k$. We prove that any flat quasicoherent sheaf on $\operatorname{Ran}(X)$ canonically acquires a D-module structure. In addition, we prove that, if the geometric fiber $X_{\overline{k}}$ is…

In this article the cohomological Donaldson-Thomas theory of local multibanana threefolds is computed using Descombes' hyperbolic localisation formula. The resulting expression is precisely given by the elliptic genus of the moduli space of…

An elliptic orbifold is the quotient of an elliptic curve by a finite group. In 2001, Eskin and Okounkov proved that generating functions for the number of branched covers of an elliptic curve with specified ramification are quasimodular…

We study a class of flat bundles, of finite rank $N$, which arise naturally from the Donaldson-Thomas theory of a Calabi-Yau threefold $X$ via the notion of a variation of BPS structure. We prove that in a large $N$ limit their flat…

We study injective and projective tensor products of measurable Banach bundles. More precisely, given two separable measurable Banach bundles ${\bf E}$, ${\bf F}$ defined over a probability space $({\rm X},\Sigma,\mathfrak m)$, we construct…

We prove a commutative Gelfand--Naimark type theorem, by showing that the set $C_s(X)$ of continuous bounded (real or complex valued) functions with separable support on a locally separable metrizable space $X$ (provided with the supremum…

We briefly review the formal picture in which a Calabi-Yau $n$-fold is the complex analogue of an oriented real $n$-manifold, and a Fano with a fixed smooth anticanonical divisor is the analogue of a manifold with boundary, motivating a…

We study the perturbative large-$N$ expansion of the round three-sphere partition function in a class of M2-brane theories, including flavored SYM and ABJM theories as well as more general 3d theories admitting dual $(p,q)$ 5-brane web…

We study Hilbert schemes of points on a smooth projective Calabi-Yau 4-fold $X$. We define $\mathrm{DT}_4$ invariants by integrating the Euler class of a tautological vector bundle $L^{[n]}$ against the virtual class. We conjecture a…

We study the relation between Donaldson-Thomas theory of Calabi-Yau threefolds and a six-dimensional topological Yang-Mills theory. Our main example is the topological U(N) gauge theory on flat space in its Coulomb branch. To evaluate its…
