The Kuznetsov component of the derived category of a cubic fourfold is a `non-commutative K3 surface'. Its symmetric square is hence a `non-commutative hyperkaehler fourfold'. We prove that this category is equivalent to the derived…
In [HLY1], Hosono, Lian, and Yau posed a conjecture characterizing the set of solutions to certain Gelfand-Kapranov-Zelevinsky hypergeometric equations which are realized as periods of Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in a Gorenstein Fano toric…
We prove a Givental-style mirror theorem for toric Deligne--Mumford stacks X. This determines the genus-zero Gromov--Witten invariants of X in terms of an explicit hypergeometric function, called the I-function, that takes values in the…
We survey the approach to mirror symmetry via Laurent polynomials, outlining some of the main conjectures, problems, and questions related to the subject. We discuss: how to construct Landau--Ginzburg models for Fano varieties; how to apply…
The Morrison--Kawamata Cone Conjecture predicts that the action of the automorphism group on the effective nef cone and the action of the pseudo-automorphism group on the effective movable cone of a klt Calabi-Yau pair have rational,…
The Local Converse Problem is to determine how the family of the local gamma factors $\gamma(s,\pi\times\tau,\psi)$ characterizes the isomorphism class of an irreducible admissible generic representation $\pi$ of $\mathrm{GL}_n(F)$, with…
We develop some estimates under the Ricci flow and use these estimates to study the blowup rates of curvatures at singularities. As applications, we obtain some gap theorems: $\displaystyle \sup_X |Ric|$ and $\displaystyle \sqrt{\sup_X…
Let $p$ be a primer number, $n \geq 3$ and integer. Let $f(X) = X^n + a_{n-1}X^{n-1} + \cdots +a_1 X + a_0 \in \mathbb{F}_p[X]$ be a primitive polynomial of degree $n$. Let $C_f$ be the companion matrix of $f(X)$, and $G$ the companion…
We compute the cones of effective divisors on blowups of $\mathbb{P}^1 \times \mathbb{P}^2$ and $\mathbb{P}^1 \times \mathbb{P}^3$ in up to 6 points. We also show that all these varieties are log Fano, giving a conceptual explanation for…
Suppose $P^n_m$ is the blow up of $\mathbb{P}^n$ at a linear subspace of dimension $m$, $\mathcal{L}=\{L_1,\ldots,L_r\}$ is a (not necessarily full) strong exceptional collection of line bundles on $P^n_m$. Let $Q$ be the quiver associated…
Monotone polytopes, also known as smooth reflexive polytopes, are the polytopes associated to monotone symplectic toric manifolds and Gorenstein Fano toric varieties. We first show that the only monotone polytopes admitting blow-ups at…
Let $(M,Q)$ be a compact, three dimensional manifold of strictly negative sectional curvature. Let $(\Sigma,P)$ be a compact, orientable surface of hyperbolic type (i.e. of genus at least two). Let $\theta:\pi_1(\Sigma,P)\to\pi_1(M,Q)$ be a…
We prove that every smooth Fano threefold from the family No 2.8 is K-stable. Such a Fano threefold is a double cover of the blow-up of $\mathbb{P}^3$ at one point branched along an anti-canonical divisor.
Let $Y$ be a smooth quartic double solid regarded as a degree 4 hypersurface of the weighted projective space $\mathbb{P}(1,1,1,1,2)$. We study the multiplication of Hochschild-Serre algebra of its Kuznetsov component $\mathcal{K}u(Y)$, via…
The quantum period of a variety X is a generating function for certain Gromov-Witten invariants of X which plays an important role in mirror symmetry. In this paper we compute the quantum periods of all 3-dimensional Fano manifolds. In…
The Debarre-de Jong conjecture predicts that the Fano variety of lines on a smooth Fano hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^n$ is always of the expected dimension. We generalize this conjecture to the case of Fano complete intersections and prove…
We prove that open Gromov-Witten invariants for semi-Fano toric manifolds of the form $X=\mathbb{P}(K_Y\oplus\mathcal{O}_Y)$, where $Y$ is a toric Fano manifold, are equal to certain 1-pointed closed Gromov-Witten invariants of $X$. As…
A Fano manifold $X$ with nef tangent bundle is of flag-type if it has the same type of elementary contractions as a complete flag manifold. In this paper we present a method to associate a Dynkin diagram $\mathcal{D}(X)$ with any such $X$,…
Let X be a compact Moishezon manifold which becomes projective after blowing up a smooth subvariety $Y \subset X$. We assume also that there exists a proper map $\rho :X \to X'$ onto a projective variety X' with $\rho(Y)$ a point, such that…
