We develop a theory of complex Kuranishi structures on projective schemes. These are sufficiently rigid to be equivalent to weak perfect obstruction theories, but sufficiently flexible to admit global complex Kuranishi charts. We apply the…
The period geometry of Calabi-Yau $n$-folds, characterised by their variations of Hodge structure governed by Griffiths transversality, a graded Frobenius algebra, an integral monodromy and an intriguing arithmetic structure, is analysed…
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…
This paper considers the natural geometric structure on the moduli space of deformations of a compact special Lagrangian submanifold $L^n$ of a Calabi-Yau manifold. From the work of McLean this is a smooth manifold with a natural $L^2$…
Twisted Calabi-Yau algebras are a generalisation of Ginzburg's notion of Calabi-Yau algebras. Such algebras A come equipped with a modular automorphism \sigma \in Aut(A), the case \sigma = id being precisely the original class of Calabi-Yau…
We prove a conjectural correspondence of Cao-Maulik-Toda which relates Gopakumar-Vafa invariants of fiber classes on a smooth projective Calabi-Yau 4-fold fibered over a curve to the Gopakumar-Vafa invariants of a smooth fiber under an…
We show that the ring of regular functions of every smooth affine log Calabi-Yau surface with maximal boundary has a vector space basis parametrized by its set of integer tropical points and a $\mathbb{C}$-algebra structure with structure…
In this paper, we make progress on understanding the collapsing behavior of Calabi-Yau metrics on a degenerating family of polarized Calabi-Yau manifolds. In the case of a family of smooth Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in projective space…
In this article, we summarize combinatorial description of complete intersection Calabi-Yau threefolds in Hibi toric varieties. Such Calabi-Yau threefolds have at worst conifold singularities, and are often smoothable to non-singular…
These are lecture notes on non-K\"ahler complex threefolds presented at the MATRIX program ``The geometry of moduli spaces in string theory''. We review some basics of Calabi-Yau geometry in Section 1, describe topological features of the…
Motivated by 5d rank 2 SCFTs, we construct a smooth, non-compact Calabi-Yau 3-fold $X$ containing a rank 2 shrinkable surface $S=S_1\cup S_2$ glued over a smooth curve. This construction will be a generalization of the construction of a…
We study deformations of pairs (X,D), with X smooth projective variety and D a smooth or a normal crossing divisor, defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. Using the differential graded Lie algebras theory and the…
We show that the formal moduli space of a Calabi-Yau manifold $X^n$ carries a linear structure, as predicted by mirror symmetry. This linear structure is canonically associated to a splitting of the Hodge filtration on $H^n(X)$.
Following previous work, we continue the study of infinitesimal methods in mixed Hodge theory. In the first part, inspired by the deformation theory of curves on Calabi-Yau threefolds, we study deformations of smooth $\mathbb{Q}$-log…
We construct stable sheaves over K3 fibrations using a relative Fourier-Mukai transform which describes the sheaves in terms of spectral data similar to the construction for elliptic fibrations. On K3 fibered Calabi-Yau threefolds we show…
We extend the study of relevant deformations connecting 2d (0,2) gauge theories on D1-branes probing toric Calabi-Yau 4-folds beyond pure mass deformations. The underlying geometry provides powerful insights when field-theoretic tools are…
Following an earlier proposal arXiv:2307.02038 to apply the GLSM formalism to understand the so-called non-commutative resolution, this paper takes one important step further to extend this formalism to a much larger class of…
Let $X$ be a Calabi-Yau 4-fold and $D$ a smooth divisor on it. We consider tautological complex associated with $L=\mathcal{O}_X(D)$ on the moduli space of Le Potier stable pairs and define its counting invariant by integrating the Euler…
We exhibit examples of pairs $(X,D)$ where $X$ is a smooth projective variety and $D$ is an anticanonical reduced simple normal crossing divisor such that the deformations of $(X,D)$ are obstructed. These examples are constructed via toric…
In this paper we explore noninvertible symmetries in general (not necessarily rational) SCFTs and their topological B-twists for Calabi-Yau manifolds. We begin with a detailed overview of defects in the topological B model. For trivial…
