We study the geometry and topology of two infinite families Y^{p,k} of Sasaki-Einstein seven-manifolds, that are expected to be AdS_4/CFT_3 dual to families of N=2 superconformal field theories in three dimensions. These manifolds, labelled…
This article is a summary of some of the author's work on Sasaki-Einstein geometry. A rather general conjecture in string theory known as the AdS/CFT correspondence relates Sasaki-Einstein geometry, in low dimensions, to superconformal…
Let $X$ denote the complex projective plane, blown up at the nine base points of a pencil of cubics, and let $D$ be any fiber of the resulting elliptic fibration on $X$. Using ansatz metrics inspired by work of Gross-Wilson and a PDE method…
In this expository article we review the problem of finding Einstein metrics on compact K\"ahler manifolds and Sasaki manifolds. In the former half of this article we see that, in the K\"ahler case, the problem fits better with the notion…
We consider a generalization of Einstein-Sasaki manifolds, which we characterize in terms both of spinors and differential forms, that in the real analytic case corresponds to contact manifolds whose symplectic cone is Calabi-Yau. We…
Let $p:X\to Y$ be an holomorphic surjective map between compact K\"ahler manifolds and let $D$ be an effective divisor on $X$ with generically simple normal crossings support and coefficients in $(0,1)$. Provided that the adjoint canonical…
In this paper, we derive the uniform L^{4}-bound of the transverse conic Ricci curvature along the conic Sasaki-Ricci flow on a compact transverse log Fano Sasakian manifold M of dimension five and the space of leaves of the characteristic…
We study a class of simply connected manifolds in all odd dimensions greater than 3 that exhibit an infinite number of toric contact structures of Reeb type that are inequivalent as contact structures. We compute the cohomology ring of our…
In this paper, we study the boundary behavior of the negatively curved K\"ahler-Einstein metric attached to a log canonical pair $(X,D)$ such that $K_X+D$ is ample. In the case where $X$ is smooth and $D$ has simple normal crossings support…
In this note we prove convexity, in the sense of Colding-Naber, of the regular set of solutions to some complex Monge-Ampere equations with conical singularities along simple normal crossing divisors. In particular, any two points in the…
Let (X,D) be a klt pair. Assuming either K_X+D big or -(K_X+D) ample, and that the coefficients of D are greater than 1/2, we show that the K\"ahler-Einstein metric attached to (X,D) -whenever it exists- has cone singularities along D on…
Extending the work of G. Sz\'ekelyhidi and T. Br\"onnle to Sasakian manifolds we prove that a small deformation of the complex structure of the cone of a constant scalar curvature Sasakian manifold admits a constant scalar curvature…
We study (transverse) scalar curvature type equation on compact Sasaki manifolds, in view of recent breakthrough of Chen-Cheng \cite{CC1, CC2, CC3} on existence of K\"ahler metrics with constant scalar curvature (csck) on compact K\"ahler…
This paper introduces the framework of (local) toric separable geometries, where toric separable K\"ahler geometries come in families, each uniquely determined by an underlying factorization structure. This unifying framework captures all…
We derive four dimensional gauge theories with exceptional groups $F_4$, $E_8$, $E_7$, and $E_7$ with matter, by starting from the duality between the heterotic string on $K3$ and F-theory on a elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau 3-fold. This…
We study various geometrical quantities for Calabi-Yau varieties realized as cones over Gorenstein Fano varieties, obtained as toric varieties from reflexive polytopes in various dimensions. Focus is made on reflexive polytopes up to…
We consider the Calabi-Yau metrics on $\mathbf{C}^n$ constructed recently by Yang Li, Conlon-Rochon, and the author, that have tangent cone $\mathbf{C}\times A_1$ at infinity for the $(n-1)$-dimensional Stenzel cone $A_1$. We show that up…
The aim of this paper is to investigate uniqueness of conic constant scalar curvature Kaehler (cscK) metrics, when the cone angle is less than $\pi$. We introduce a new H\"older space called $\cC^{4,\a,\b}$ to study the regularities of this…
We prove that the mirror map is trivial for the canonical formal families of Calabi-Yau varieties constructed by Gross and the second author. In other words, the natural coordinate in a canonical Calabi-Yau family is a canonical coordinate…
This is a part of our joint program. The purpose of this paper is to study smooth toroidal compactifications of Siegel varieties and their applications, we also try to understand the K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on Siegel varieties through the…
