This is a survey of the Kawamata-Morrison cone conjecture on the structure of Calabi-Yau varieties and more generally Calabi-Yau pairs. We discuss the proof of the cone conjecture for algebraic surfaces, with plenty of examples. We show…
A Lie G-torus of type X_r is a Lie algebra with two gradings -- one by an abelian group G and the other by the root lattice of a finite irreducible root system of type X_r. In this paper we construct a centreless Lie G-torus of type BC_r,…
Those maps of a closed surface to the three-dimensional torus that are homotopic to embeddings are characterized. Particular attention is paid to the somewhat intricate case when the surface is nonorientable.
A Kahler-type form is a symplectic form compatible with an integrable complex structure. Let M be either a torus or a K3-surface equipped with a Kahler-type form. We show that the homology class of any Maslov-zero Lagrangian torus in M has…
We show that if $(X,Y)$ is a simple normal crossings log Calabi--Yau pair, then there is a real torus of dimension equal to the codimension of the smallest stratum of $Y$ which can be used to construct $W_{2k-1}H^k(X \setminus…
We classify holomorphic as well as algebraic torus equivariant principal $G$-bundles over a nonsingular toric variety $X$, where $G$ is a complex linear algebraic group. It is shown that any such bundle over an affine, nonsingular toric…
Let $S$ be an abelian surface over an algebraically closed field $k$ with characteristic different from $2$ and $3$, and $\mathcal{L}$ a symmetric ample line bundle defining a polarisation of type $(1,3)$. Then the linear system…
Given one of an infinite class of supersymmetric quiver gauge theories, string theorists can associate a corresponding toric variety (which is a Calabi-Yau 3-fold) as well as an associated combinatorial model known as a brane tiling. In…
We show that there is a good notion of irreducible sympelectic varieties of $\mathrm{K3}^{[n]}$-type over an arbitrary field of characteristic zero or $p > n + 1$. Then we construct mixed characteristic moduli spaces for these varieties.…
We compute the homotopy type of the moduli space of flat, unitary connections over aspherical surfaces, after stabilizing with respect to the rank of the underlying bundle. Over the orientable surface M^g, we show that this space has the…
Our main goal is to determine, under certain restrictions, the maximal closed connected subgroups of simple algebraic groups containing a regular torus. We call a torus regular if its centralizer is abelian. We also obtain some results of…
Extending work of Kapouleas and Yang, for any integers $N \geq 2$, $k, \ell \geq 1$, and $m$ sufficiently large, we apply gluing methods to construct in the round $3$-sphere a closed embedded minimal surface that has genus $k\ell…
Let $R$ be a finite dimensional algebra of finite global dimension over a field $k$. In this paper, we will characterize a $k$-linear abelian category $\mathscr C$ such that $\mathscr C\cong \operatorname {tails} A$ for some graded right…
For a very general polarized $K3$ surface $S\subset \mathbb{P}^g$ of genus $g\ge 5$, we study the linear system on the Hilbert square $S^{[2]}$ parametrizing quadrics in $\mathbb{P}^g$ that contain $S$. We prove its very ampleness for…
Fix a symplectic K3 surface X homologically mirror to an algebraic K3 surface Y by an equivalence taking a graded Lagrangian torus L in X to the skyscraper sheaf of a point y of Y. We show there are Lagrangian tori with vanishing Maslov…
The theory of coverings of the two-dimensional torus is a standard part of algebraic topology and has applications in several topics in string theory, for example, in topological strings. This paper initiates applications of this theory to…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$ and $A$ a graded $k$-algebra finitely generated in degree $1$. In this paper, for $3$-dimensional quadratic AS-regular algebras except for Type EC, we give a complete list of…
We shall give, in an optimal form, a sufficient numerical condition for the finiteness of the fundamental group of the smooth locus of a normal K3 surface. We shall moreover prove that, if the normal K3 surface is elliptic and the above…
Cluster algebras are a recent topic of study and have been shown to be a useful tool to characterize structures in several knowledge fields. An important problem is to establish whether or not a given cluster algebra is of finite type.…
