We consider a class of special Lagrangian subspaces of Calabi-Yau manifolds and identify their mirrors, using the recent derivation of mirror symmetry, as certain holomorphic varieties of the mirror geometry. This transforms the counting of…
Whenever available, refined BPS indices provide considerably more information on the spectrum of BPS states than their unrefined version. Extending earlier work on the modularity of generalized Donaldson-Thomas invariants counting D4-D2-D0…
We find a new infinite class of infinite-dimensional algebras acting on BPS states for non-compact toric Calabi-Yau threefolds. In Type IIA superstring compactification on a toric Calabi-Yau threefold, the D-branes wrapping holomorphic…
In this work we compute relative periods for B-branes, realized in terms of divisors in a compact Calabi-Yau hypersurface, by means of direct integration. Although we exemplify the method of direct integration with a particular Calabi-Yau…
Consider the degeneracies of BPS bound states of one D6 brane wrapping Calabi-Yau X with D0 branes and D2 branes. When we include D4-branes wrapping Lagrangian cycle L in addition, D2-branes can end on them. These give rise to new bound…
We investigate the construction of exponential families from statistical manifolds, a central problem in information geometry. We prove that every compact statistical manifold admits a singular foliation whose leaves are Hessian manifolds.…
A formalism for calculating the open supermembrane contribution to the non-perturbative superpotential of moduli in heterotic M-theory is presented. This is explicitly applied to the Calabi-Yau (1,1)-moduli and the separation modulus of the…
Exceptional points (EPs) are degeneracies in open wave systems where at least two energy levels and their corresponding eigenstates coalesce. We report evidence of the existence of EPs in 3D plasmonic nanostructures. The systems are…
This paper contains some applications of Bridgeland-Douglas stability conditions on triangulated categories, and Joyce's work on counting invariants of semistable objects, to the study of birational geometry. We introduce the notion of…
Let $X$ be a compact connected Riemann surface of genus $g$, with $g\geq 2$, and ${\cal M}_{\xi}$ a smooth moduli space of fixed determinant semistable vector bundles of rank $n$, with $n\geq 2$, over $X$. Take a smooth anticanonical…
We parameterize by a fine moduli space all degenerations of linear series to a singular curve which is the union of two smooth components meeting transversally at a single point. For this we introduce a novel object in the study of…
Using Hilbert-Burch matrices, we give an explicit description of the Bia{\l}ynicki-Birula cells on the Hilbert scheme of points on $\mathbb A ^2$ with isolated fixed points. If the fixed point locus is positive dimensional we obtain an…
Exceptional points (EPs) are degeneracies of non-Hermitian operators where, in addition to the eigenvalues, corresponding eigenmodes become degenerate. Classical and quantum photonic systems with EPs have attracted tremendous attention due…
Gross-Joyce-Tanaka arXiv:2005.05637 proposed a wall-crossing conjecture for Calabi-Yau fourfolds. Assuming it, we prove the conjecture of Cao-Kool arXiv:1712.07347 for 0-dimensional sheaf-counting invariants on projective Calabi-Yau…
BPS quivers for N=2 SU(N) gauge theories are derived via geometric engineering from derived categories of toric Calabi-Yau threefolds. While the outcome is in agreement of previous low energy constructions, the geometric approach leads to…
We use the results of hep-th/0007174 on the simple current classification of open unoriented CFTs to construct half supersymmetry preserving crosscap states for rational Calabi-Yau compactifications. We show that the corresponding…
We study BPS states which arise in compactifications of M-theory on Calabi-Yau manifolds. In particular, we are interested in the spectrum of the particles obtained by wrapping M2-brane on a two-cycle in the CY manifold X. We compute the…
We compute all genus topological amplitudes on configurations of ruled surfaces obtained by resolving lines of D-E singularities in compact Calabi-Yau threefolds. We find that our results are in agreement with genus zero mirror symmetry…
Let A be an augmented algebra over a semi-simple algebra S. We show that the Ext algebra of S as an A-module, enriched with its natural A-infinity structure, can be used to reconstruct the completion of A at the augmentation ideal. We use…
We exploit the critical locus structure on the Quot scheme $\mathrm{Quot}_{\mathbb A^3}(\mathscr O^{\oplus r},n)$, in particular the associated symmetric obstruction theory, in order to define rank $r$ K-theoretic Donaldson-Thomas…
