Inspired by his vanishing results of tautological classes and by Harer's computation of the virtual cohomological dimension of the mapping class group, Looijenga conjectured that the moduli space of smooth Riemann surfaces admits a…
For a compact complex manifold, we introduce holomorphic foliations associated with certain abelian subgroups of the automorphism group. Such foliations are generalizations of holomorphic principal torus bundles. If there exists a…
We study holomorphic foliations on normal crossings varieties arising as semistable degenerations. We do so by we exploring the notion of foliated d-semistability using the language of logarithmic structures in the sense of…
In \cite{Goto}, Ryushi Goto has constructed the deformation space for a manifold equipped with a collection of closed differential forms and showed that in some important cases (Calabi-Yau, $G_2$- and $Spin(7)$-structures) this deformation…
We develop a model for the cohomology of the complement of a hypersurface arrangement inside a smooth projective complex variety. This generalizes the case of normal crossing divisors, discovered by P. Deligne in the context of the mixed…
This paper proposes a new notion of smoothness of algebras, termed differential smoothness, that combines the existence of a top form in a differential calculus over an algebra together with a strong version of the Poincar\'e duality…
In this paper we prove that an isometry between orbit spaces of two proper isometric actions is smooth if it preserves the codimension of the orbits or if the orbit spaces have no boundary. In other words, we generalize Myers-Steenrod's…
Rollings of reductive homogeneous spaces are investigated. More precisely, for a reductive homogeneous space $G / H$ with reductive decomposition $\mathfrak{g} = \mathfrak{h} \oplus \mathfrak{m}$, we consider rollings of $\mathfrak{m}$ over…
In an earlier paper, we showed that the moduli space of deformations of a smooth, compact, orientable special Lagrangian submanifold L in a symplectic manifold X with a non-integrable almost complex structure is a smooth manifold of…
In this article, we prove the Hodge conjecture for a desingularization of the moduli space of rank 2, semi-stable, torsion-free sheaves with fixed odd degree determinant over a very general irreducible nodal curve of genus at least 2. We…
We solved the long-standing problem of describing the cohomology ring of semiample hypersurfaces in complete simplicial toric varieties. Also, the monomial-divisor mirror map is generalized to a map between the whole Picard group and the…
This paper is the first arising from our project announced in math.AG/0211094, "Affine manifolds, log structures, and mirror symmetry." We aim to study mirror symmetry by studying the log structures of Illusie-Fontaine and Kato on…
We develop a theory of conically smooth stratified spaces and their smooth moduli, including a notion of classifying maps for tangential structures. We characterize continuous space-valued sheaves on these conically smooth stratified spaces…
In this paper we construct explicit smooth solutions to the Strominger system on generalized Calabi-Gray manifolds, which are compact non-K\"ahler Calabi-Yau 3-folds with infinitely many distinct topological types and sets of Hodge numbers.
This paper first generalises the Bogomolov-Tian-Todorov unobstructedness theorem to the case of Calabi-Yau threefolds with canonical singularities. The deformation space of such a Calabi-Yau threefold is no longer smooth, but the general…
We study the rational homology of the Deligne--Mumford compactification $\overline{\mathcal M}_{g,n}$ of the moduli space of stable curves via a family of Morse functions, namely the $\text{sys}_T$ functions. Exploiting the geometric and…
In this paper, we investigate the $L^2$-Dolbeault cohomology of the symmetric power of cotangent bundles of ball quotients with finite volume, as well as their toroidal compactification. Through the application of Hodge theory for complete…
We develop a general theory of log spaces, in which one can make sense of the basic notions of logarithmic geometry, in the sense of Fontaine-Illusie-Kato. Many of our general constructions with log spaces are new, even in the algebraic…
In this paper we introduce a new methodology for smooth rigidity of Anosov diffeomorphisms based on "matching functions." The main observation is that under certain bunching assumptions on the diffeomorphism the periodic cycle functionals…
In this mostly expository paper we review several known results about the cohomology of moduli spaces of smooth and stable curves, focusing in particular on low degree cohomology. We also give a new proof of Harer's theorem describing the…
