We study the stability of compact pseudo-K\"ahler manifolds, i.e. compact complex manifolds $X$ endowed with a symplectic form compatible with the complex structure of $X$. When the corresponding metric is positive-definite, $X$ is K\"ahler…

A method for constructing explicit Calabi-Yau metrics in six dimensions in terms of an initial hyperkahler structure is presented. The equations to solve are non linear in general, but become linear when the objects describing the metric…

For any elliptic K3 surface $\mathfrak{F}: \mathcal{K} \rightarrow \mathbb{P}^1$, we construct a family of collapsing Ricci-flat K\"ahler metrics such that curvatures are uniformly bounded away from singular fibers, and which…

We study several questions involving relative Ricci-flat K\"ahler metrics for families of log Calabi-Yau manifolds. Our main result states that if $p:(X,B)\to Y$ is a K\"ahler fiber space such that $\displaystyle (X_y, B|_{X_y})$ is…

Motivated by the picture of mirror symmetry suggested by Strominger, Yau and Zaslow, we made a conjecture concerning the Gromov-Hausdorff limits of Calabi-Yau n-folds (with Ricci-flat K\"ahler metric) as one approaches a large complex…

We prove that compact Calabi--Yau varieties with certain isolated singularities are projective. In dimension 3 we do this by analysis, supposing given conifold metrics. In higher dimensions it follows more readily from Ohsawa's degenerate…

A normal variety $X$ is called Calabi-Yau if $K_X \sim_{\mathbb Q} 0$. The index of $X$ is the smallest positive integer $m$ so that $m K_X \sim 0$. We construct smooth, projective Calabi-Yau varieties in every dimension with doubly…
