Given the facts that the three-qubit symplectic polar space features three different kinds of observables and each of its labeled Fano planes acquires a definite sign, we found that there are 45 distinct types of Mermin pentagrams in this…
In this article we discuss some numerical parts of the mirror conjecture. For any 3 - dimensional Calabi - Yau manifold author introduces a generalization of the Casson invariant known in 3 - dimensional geometry, which is called Casson -…
We present a new class of magnetically shaped deformable liquid mirrors made of a magnetic liquid (ferrofluid). Deformable liquid mirrors offer advantages with respect to deformable solid mirrors: large deformations, low costs and the…
We show that the maximum likelihood degree of a smooth very affine variety is equal to the signed topological Euler characteristic. This generalizes Orlik and Terao's solution to Varchenko's conjecture on complements of hyperplane…
We construct klt projective varieties with ample canonical class and the smallest known volume. We also find exceptional klt Fano varieties with the smallest known anticanonical volume. We conjecture that our examples have the smallest…
In this paper we propose and discuss a mirror construction for complete intersections in partial flag manifolds $F(n_1, ..., n_l, n)$. This construction includes our previous mirror construction for complete intersection in Grassmannians…
In this work, we establish new rigidity results for the Maslov class of Lagrangian submanifolds in large classes of closed and convex symplectic manifolds. Our main result establishes upper bounds for the minimal Maslov number of…
We state two conjectures that together allow one to describe the set of smoothing components of a Gorenstein toric affine 3-fold in terms of a combinatorially defined and easily studied set of Laurent polynomials called 0-mutable…
In this expository paper, we discuss how Fourier-Mukai-type transformations, which we call SYZ mirror transformations, can be applied to provide a geometric understanding of the mirror symmetry phenomena for semi-flat Calabi-Yau manifolds…
We analyse the local structure of the K-moduli space of Fano varieties at a toric singular K-polystable Fano 3-fold, which deforms to smooth Fano 3-folds with anticanonical volume 28 and Picard rank 4. In particular, by constructing an…
For any flat projective family $(\mX,\mL)\rightarrow C$ such that the generic fibre $\mX_\eta$ is a klt Q-Fano variety and $\mL|_{\mX_\eta}\sim_{Q}-K_{X_{\eta}}$, we use the techniques from the minimal model program (MMP) to modify the…
We classify the polarized symplectic automorphisms of Fano varieties of smooth cubic fourfolds (equipped with the Pl\"ucker polarization) and study the fixed loci.
We prove that the variety of complete flags for any semisimple algebraic group is rigid in any smooth family of Fano manifolds.
We study mirror symmetry of type II strings on manifolds with the exceptional holonomy groups $G_2$ and Spin(7). Our central result is a construction of mirrors of Spin(7) manifolds realized as generalized connected sums. In parallel to…
It is known that a given smooth del Pezzo surface or Fano threefold $X$ admits a choice of log Calabi-Yau compactified mirror toric Landau-Ginzburg model (with respect to certain fixed K\"ahler classes and Gorenstein toric degenerations).…
We prove that Hori--Vafa mirror models for smooth Fano complete intersections in weighted projective spaces admit an interpretation as Laurent polynomials.
We construct and apply Strominger-Yau-Zaslow mirror transformations to understand the geometry of the mirror symmetry between toric Fano manifolds and Landau-Ginzburg models.
We show that $G$-Fano threefolds are mirror-modular. 1. Mirror maps are inversed reversed Hauptmoduln for moonshine subgroups of $SL_2(\mathbb{R})$. 2. Quantum periods, shifted by an integer constant (eigenvalue of quantum operator on…
We prove that smooth Fano threefolds have toric Landau--Ginzburg models. More precise, we prove that their Landau--Ginzburg models, presented as Laurent polynomials, admit compactifications to families of K3 surfaces, and we describe their…
We construct first examples of Fano varieties with torsion in their third cohomology group. The examples are constructed as double covers of linear sections of rank loci of symmetric matrices, and can be seen as higher-dimensional analogues…
