We describe a class (called regular) of invariant generalized complex structures on a real semisimple Lie group G. The problem reduces to the description of admissible pairs (\gk, \omega), where \gk is an appropriate regular subalgebra of…
We construct novel classes of compact G2 spaces from lifting type IIA flux backgrounds with O6 planes. There exists an extension of IIA Calabi-Yau orientifolds for which some of the D6 branes (required to solve the RR tadpole) are dissolved…
We present a proof of strict $g$-convexity in 2D for solutions of generated Jacobian equations with a $g$-Monge-Amp\`ere measure bounded away from 0. Subsequently this implies $C^1$ differentiability in the case of a $g$-Monge-Amp\`ere…
Compactifications with fluxes and branes motivate us to study various enumerative invariants of Calabi-Yau manifolds. In this paper, we study non-perturbative corrections depending on both open and closed string moduli for a class of…

Let $(X,\omega)$ be a compact Hermitian manifold of complex dimension $n$, equipped with a Hermitian metric $\omega$. Let $\beta$ be a possibly non-closed smooth $(1,1)$-form on $X$ such that $\int_X\beta^n>0$. Assume that there is a…
We discuss the Hodge theory of algebraic non-commutative spaces and analyze how this theory interacts with the Calabi-Yau condition and with mirror symmetry. We develop an abstract theory of non-commutative Hodge structures, investigate…

We solve the quaternionic Monge-Amp\`ere equation on hyperK\"ahler manifolds. In this way we prove the ansatz for the conjecture raised by Alesker and Verbitsky claiming that this equation should be solvable on any hyperK\"ahler with…
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…
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…
Compactifications of type II theories on Calabi-Yau threefolds including electric and magnetic background fluxes are discussed. We derive the bosonic part of the four-dimensional low energy effective action and show that it is a…
We propose a new approach to the existence of constant transversal scalar curvature Sasaki structures drawing on ideas and tools from the CR Yamabe problem, establishing a link between the CR Yamabe invariant, the existence of Sasaki…
It is shown that the general solution of a homogeneous Monge-Amp\`{e}re equation in $n$-dimensional space is closely connected with the exactly (but only implicitly) integrable system \frac {\partial \xi_{j}}{\partial x_0}+\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}…

In this paper we introduce a new equation on the compact Kahler manifolds. Solution of this equation corresponds to the Calabi-Yau metric. New equation differs from the Monge--Ampere equation considered by Calabi and Yau.
We prove the existence of a continuous quasi-plurisubharmonic solution to the Monge-Amp\`ere equation on a compact Hermitian manifold for a very general measre on the right hand side. We admit measures dominated by capacity in a certain…
