This paper aims to study the birational geometry of log Calabi-Yau pairs$(\mathbb{P}^3, D)$ of coregularity 2, where in this case $D$ is an irreducible normal quartic surface with canonical singularities. We completely classify which toric…

In this paper, we explicitly prove that statistical manifolds, related to exponential families and with flat structure connection have a Frobenius manifold structure. This latter object, at the interplay of beautiful interactions between…

We consider Open Gromov-Witten invariants for noncompact Calabi-Yau in the case the Lagrangian has the topology of $\R^2 \times S^1$. The definition of the invariant involves the choice of a frame for the Lagrangian, in accord with string…

We give an explicit formula for the difference between the standard and reduced genus-one Gromov-Witten invariants. Combined with previous work on geometric properties of the latter, this paper makes it possible to compute the standard…

In this article, we study the geometry of log Calabi-Yau pairs $(X,B)$ of index one and birational complexity zero. Firstly, we propose a conjecture that characterizes such pairs $(X,B)$ in terms of their dual complex and the rationality of…

The 2016 papers of J. Solomon and S. Tukachinsky use bounding chains in Fukaya's $A_{\infty}$-algebras to define numerical disk counts relative to a Lagrangian under certain regularity assumptions on the moduli spaces of disks. We present a…

We prove the integrality and finiteness of open BPS invariants of toric Calabi-Yau 3-folds relative to Aganagic-Vafa outer branes, defined from open Gromov-Witten invariants by the Labastida-Mari\~no-Ooguri-Vafa formula. Specializing to…

We show that certain hypergeometric series used to formulate mirror symmetry for Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces, in string theory and algebraic geometry, satisfy a number of interesting properties. Many of these properties are used in separate…

We solve the part of the Donaldson-Thomas theory of Calabi-Yau threefolds which comes from super-rigid rational curves. As an application, we prove a version of the conjectural Gromov-Witten/Donaldson-Thomas correspondence for contributions…

Let $M$ be a smooth projective variety and $\mathbf{D}$ an ample normal crossings divisor. From topological data associated to the pair $(M, \mathbf{D})$, we construct, under assumptions on Gromov-Witten invariants, a series of…

I first recall the various problems of real enumerative geometry out of which I could extract some integer valued invariants, providing some real counterpart to Gromov-Witten invariants. I then discuss sharpness of the lower bounds given by…

This paper studies irregularity-type invariants of special C-pairs, or "geometric orbifolds" in the sense of Campana. Under mild assumptions on the singularities, we show that the augmented irregularity of a C-pair (X,D) is bounded by its…

Using reduced Gromov-Witten theory, we define new invariants which capture the enumerative geometry of curves on holomorphic symplectic 4-folds. The invariants are analogous to the BPS counts of Gopakumar and Vafa for Calabi-Yau 3-folds,…

For toric Calabi-Yau threefolds, open Gromov-Witten invariants associated to Riemann surfaces with one boundary component can be written as the product of a disk factor and a closed invariant. Using the Brini-Cavalieri-Ross formalism, these…
