Generalized Calabi-Yau structures, a notion recently introduced by Hitchin, are studied in the case of K3 surfaces. We show how they are related to the classical theory of K3 surfaces and to moduli spaces of certain SCFT as studied by…

The main theme of this paper is the Thomas-Yau conjecture, primarily in the setting of exact, (quantitatively) almost calibrated, unobstructed Lagrangian branes inside Calabi-Yau Stein manifolds. In our interpretation, the conjecture is…

We prove some Bernstein theorems for entire space-like submanifolds in pseudo-Euclidean spaces and, as a corollary, we obtain a new proof of the Calabi-Pogorelov theorem on global solutions of Monge-Ampere equations.

In these notes evidence is presented for intepreting the moduli space of the integrable model associated to $N\!=\!2$ gauge theories with $N\!=\!4$ matter content, in terms of Calabi-Yau manifolds. We restrict to the case of gauge group…

We propose a general formula for perturbative-in-alpha' corrections to the Kahler potential on the quantum Kahler moduli space of Calabi-Yau n-folds, for any n, in their asymptotic large volume regime. The knowledge of such perturbative…

In a space of 4-dimensions, I will examine constrained variational problems in which the Lagrangian, and constraint scalar density, are concomitants of a (pseudo-Riemannian) metric tensor and its first two derivatives. The Lagrange…

We endow the group of automorphisms of an exact Courant algebroid over a compact manifold with an infinite dimensional Lie group structure modelled on the inverse limit of Hilbert spaces (ILH). We prove a slice theorem for the action of…

Superstring theories are the most promising theories for unified description of all fundamental interactions including gravity. However, these theories are formulated consistently only in 10 spacetime dimensions. Therefore, to connect to…

In this paper, we present foundational material towards the development of a rigorous enumerative theory of stable maps with Lagrangian boundary conditions, ie stable maps from bordered Riemann surfaces to a symplectic manifold, such that…

We prove a priori estimates for a class of transverse fully nonlinear equations on Sasakian manifolds and give some geometric applications such as the transversion Calabi-Yau theorem for transverse balanced and (strongly) Gauduchon metrics.…

We study intersecting D6-branes in Calabi-Yau manifolds that are smooth hypersurfaces in weighted projective spaces. We develop the techniques for calculating intersection numbers between special Lagrangian sub-manifolds defined as fixed…

We study the existence of special Lagrangian submanifolds of log Calabi-Yau manifolds equipped with the complete Ricci-flat K\"ahler metric constructed by Tian-Yau. We prove that if $X$ is a Tian-Yau manifold, and if the compact Calabi-Yau…

We explore a number of examples of special Lagrangian fibrations on non-compact Calabi-Yau manifolds invariant under torus actions. These include fibrations on crepant resolutions of canonical toric singularities (already found by…

We construct examples of cohomogeneity one special Lagrangian submanifolds in the cotangent bundle over the complex projective space, whose Calabi-Yau structure was given by Stenzel. For each example, we describe the condition of special…

One of the difficulties encountered when studying physical theories in discrete space-time is that of describing the underlying continuous symmetries (like Lorentz, or Galilei invariance). One of the ways of addressing this difficulty is to…

We review the major mathematical concepts involved in the dimensional reduction of D=11 N=1 supergravity theory over a Calabi-Yau manifold with non-trivial complex structure moduli resulting in ungauged D=5 N=2 supergravity theory with…

We construct low energy effective Lagrangians for 3d N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with any gauge group. They represent supersymmetric sigma models at hyper-Kahlerian manifolds of dimension 4r (r is the rang of the group). In the…

Type II string theory compactified on a Calabi-Yau manifold, with a singularity modeled by a hypersurface in an orbifold, is considered. In the limit of vanishing string coupling, one expects a non gravitational theory concentrated at the…

We construct examples of non-invertible global symmetries in two-dimensional superconformal field theories described by sigma models into Calabi-Yau target spaces. Our construction provides some of the first examples of non-invertible…

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…
