We give an example of the recent proposed mirror construction of Strominger, Yau and Zaslow in ``Mirror Symmetry is T-duality,'' hep-th/9606040. The paper first considers mirror symmetry for K3 surfaces in light of this construction. We…
We construct special Lagrangian submanifolds in collapsing Calabi-Yau 3-folds fibered by K3 surfaces. As these 3-folds collapse, the special Lagrangians shrink to 1-dimensional graphs in the base, mirroring the conjectured tropicalization…
We prove a homological mirror symmetry result for maximally degenerating families of hypersurfaces in $(\mathbb{C}^*)^n$ (B-model) and their mirror toric Landau-Ginzburg A-models. The main technical ingredient of our construction is a…
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…
This article contains a proof of the fact that, under certain mild technical conditions, the action of the automorphism group of a cyclic 3-manifold cover of the type SxR, where S is a compact surface, yields a compact quotient. This result…
We show that in many examples the non-displaceability of Lagrangian submanifolds by Hamiltonian isotopy can be proved via Lagrangian Floer cohomology with non-unitary line bundle. The examples include all monotone Lagrangian torus fibers in…
We prove an "h-principle without pre-conditions" for the elimination of tangencies of a Lagrangian submanifold with respect to a Lagrangian distribution. The main result states that such tangencies can always be completely removed at the…
We construct an algebraic version of Lagrangian Floer homology for immersed curves inside the pillowcase. We first associate to the pillowcase an algebra A. Then to an immersed curve L inside the pillowcase we associate an A infinity module…
We supply a proof of the fact that a hyperbolic 3-manifold $M$ with finitely generated fundamental group and with no parabolics is topologically tame. This proves the Marden's conjecture. Our approach is to form an exhaustion $M_i$ of $M$…
The Clifford torus is a torus in a three-dimensional sphere. Homogeneous tori are simple generalization of the Clifford torus which still in a three-dimensional sphere. There is a way to construct tori in a three-dimensional sphere using…
We construct from a real affine manifold with singularities (a tropical manifold) a degeneration of Calabi-Yau manifolds. This solves a fundamental problem in mirror symmetry. Furthermore, a striking feature of our approach is that it…
We show that the image of a dominant meromorphic map from an irreducible compact Calabi-Yau manifold $X$ whose general fiber is of dimension strictly between $0$ and $\dim X$ is rationally connected. Using this result, we construct for any…
Let $(X,\alpha)$ be a K\"ahler manifold of dimension n, and let $[\omega] \in H^{1,1}(X,\mathbb{R})$. We study the problem of specifying the Lagrangian phase of $\omega$ with respect to $\alpha$, which is described by the nonlinear elliptic…
We investigate a question of Cooper adjacent to the Virtual Haken Conjecture. Assuming certain conjectures in number theory, we show that there exist hyperbolic rational homology 3-spheres with arbitrarily large injectivity radius. These…
A topological space is called self-covering if it is a nontrivial cover of itself. We prove that, under mild assumptions, a closed self-covering manifold with an abelian fundamental group fibers over a torus in various senses. As a…
We derive formulas for the mean curvature of special Lagrangian 3-folds in the general case where the ambient 6-manifold has intrinsic torsion. Consequently, we are able to characterize those SU(3)-structures for which every special…
Given an asymptotically cylindrical special Lagrangian submanifold L in an asymptotically cylindrical Calabi-Yau 3-fold X, we determine conditions on a decay rate gamma which make the moduli space of (local) special Lagrangian deformations…
We introduce a new construction for tropical Lagrangian surfaces in $(\mathbb{C}^*)^2$. This construction makes the surfaces special Lagrangian, which gives a strong control over the asymptotic behavior of holomorphic disks near each…
We give a criterion in terms of the boundary for the existence of a proper cocompact action of a word-hyperbolic group on a CAT(0) cube complex. We describe applications towards lattices and hyperbolic 3-manifold groups. In particular, by…
The Hamiltonian shape invariant of a domain $X \subset \mathbb R^4$, as a subset of $\mathbb R^2$, describes the product Lagrangian tori which may be embedded in $X$. We provide necessary and sufficient conditions to determine whether or…
