We use Serre construction and deformation to construct stable bundles and reflexive sheaves on Calabi-Yau threefolds.
We revisit moduli stabilization on Calabi-Yau manifolds with a discrete symmetry. Invariant fluxes allow for a truncation to a symmetric locus in complex structure moduli space and hence drastically reduce the moduli stabilization problem…
We give an explicit example of log Calabi-Yau pairs that are log canonical and have a linearly decreasing Euler characteristic. This is constructed in terms of a degree two covering of a sequence of blow ups of three dimensional projective…
We show that a large class of maximally degenerating families of n-dimensional polarized varieties come with a canonical basis of sections of powers of the ample line bundle. The families considered are obtained by smoothing a reducible…
In this work we construct an analytically completely integrable Hamiltonian system which is canonically associated to any family of Calabi-Yau threefolds. The base of this system is a moduli space of gauged Calabi-Yaus in the family, and…
Motivated by the Strominger-Yau-Zaslow conjecture, we study fibre spaces whose total space has trivial canonical bundle. Especially, we are interest in Calabi-Yau varieties with fibre structure. In this paper, we only consider semi-stable…
Complex structure moduli of a Calabi-Yau threefold in $N=1$ supersymmetric heterotic compactifications can be stabilized by holomorphic vector bundles. The stabilized moduli are determined by a computation of Atiyah class. In this paper, we…
We develop a method, initially due to Salamon, to compute the space of ``invariant'' forms on an associated bundle X=P\times_G V, with a suitable notion of invariance. We determine sufficient conditions for this space to be d-closed. We…
We analyze transitions between heterotic vacua with distinct gauge bundles using two complementary methods - the effective four-dimensional field theory and the corresponding geometry. From the viewpoint of effective field theory, such…
We introduce a deformed topological vertex and use it to define deformations of the topological string partition functions of some local Calabi-Yau geometries. We also work out some examples for which such deformations satisfy a deformed…
We investigate topological properties of Calabi-Yau fourfolds and consider a wide class of explicit constructions in weighted projective spaces and, more generally, toric varieties. Divisors which lead to a non-perturbative superpotential…
We study threefolds fibred by K3 surfaces admitting a lattice polarization by a certain class of rank 19 lattices. We begin by showing that any family of such K3 surfaces is completely determined by a map from the base of the family to the…
We show that Calabi-Yau fibrations over curves are uniformly K-stable in an adiabatic sense if and only if the base curves are K-stable in the log-twisted sense. Moreover, we prove that there are cscK metrics for such fibrations when the…
We investigate the boundedness problem for log Calabi-Yau fibrations whose bases and general fibers are bounded. We prove that the total spaces of log Calabi-Yau fibrations are bounded in codimension one after fixing some natural…
We analyse the flux-induced scalar potential for type IIA orientifolds in the presence of $p$-form, geometric and non-geometric fluxes. Just like in the Calabi-Yau case, the potential presents a bilinear structure, with a factorised…
We discuss some aspects of perturbative $(0,2)$ Calabi-Yau moduli space. In particular, we show how models with different $(0,2)$ data can meet along various sub-loci in their moduli space. In the simplest examples, the models differ by the…
For moduli of polarized smooth K-trivial a.k.a., Calabi-Yau varieties in a general sense, we revisit a classical problem of constructing its "weak K-moduli" compactifications which parametrizes K-semistable (i.e., semi-log-canonical…
The moduli stacks of Calabi-Yau varieties are known to enjoy several hyperbolicity properties. The best results have so far been proven using sophisticated analytic tools such as complex Hodge theory. Although the situation is very…
This work develops new ideas and tools to establish wall-crossing in Calabi-Yau four categories as originally conjectured by Gross-Joyce-Tanaka. In the process, I set up some necessary new language, including a natural refinement of Joyce's…
The invariants of rank 2 Joyce-Song semistable pairs over a Calabi-Yau threefold were computed in arXiv:1101.2252, using the wall-crossing formula of Joyce-Song and Kontsevich-Soibelman. Such wall-crossing computations often depend on the…
