We obtain a detailed classification for a class of non-simply connected Calabi-Yau threefolds which are of potential interest for a wide range of problems in string phenomenology. These threefolds arise as quotients of Schoen's Calabi-Yau…
Let H be a Hopf algebra and A be an H-module algebra. This article investigates when the smash product A#H is (skew) Calabi-Yau, has Van den Bergh duality or is Artin-Schelter regular or Gorenstein. In particular, if A and H are skew…
An important invariant of a polynomial $f$ is its Jacobian algebra defined by its partial derivatives. Let $f$ be invariant with respect to the action of a finite group of diagonal symmetries $G$. We axiomatically define an orbifold…
We perform a Hodge theoretic study of parameter dependent families of D-branes on compact Calabi-Yau manifolds in type II and F-theory compactifcations. Starting from a geometric Gauss-Manin connection for B type branes we study the…
We construct three families of pairs of genus 2 curves over a field K, whose Jacobians are isomorphic as unpolarized abelian varieties. Each family is parameterized by an open subset of the Projective line over K. Our construction is based…
We give a general method for constructing compact K\"ahler manifolds $X_1$ and $X_2$ whose intermediate Jacobians $J^k(X_1)$ and $J^k(X_2)$ are isogenous for each $k$, and we exhibit some examples. The method is based upon the algebraic…
The Grassmannian Gr(2,5) is embedded in $\Bbb{P}^9$ via the Pl\"ucker embedding. The intersection of two general PGL(10)-translates of Gr(2,5) is a Calabi-Yau 3-fold X, and the intersection of the projective duals of the two translates is…
We construct examples of number fields which are not isomorphic but for which their idele class groups are isomorphic. We also construct examples of projective algebraic curves which are not isomorphic but for which their Jacobian varieties…
We consider principal fibre bundles with a given connection and construct almost complex structures on the total space if the adjoint bundle is isomorphic to the tangent bundle of the base. We derive the integrability condition. If the…
This is the first part in a series of papers on counting surfaces on Calabi-Yau 4-folds. Besides the Hilbert scheme of 2-dimensional subschemes, we introduce \emph{two} types of moduli spaces of stable pairs. We show that all three moduli…
The Deligne conjecture (many times a theorem) endows Hochschild cochains of a linear category with the structure of an $E_2$-algebra, that is, of an algebra over the little 2-disks operad. In this paper, we prove the cyclic Deligne…
For a given Jacobi-Jordan algebra $A$ and a vector space $V$ over a field $k$, a non-abelian cohomological type object ${\mathcal H}^{2}_{A} \, (V, \, A)$ is constructed: it classifies all Jacobi-Jordan algebras containing $A$ as a…
The $7$-dimensional link $K$ of a weighted homogeneous hypersurface on the round $9$-sphere in $\mathbb{C}^5$ has a nontrivial null Sasakian structure which is contact Calabi-Yau, in many cases. It admits a canonical co-closed $\rm…
We show that it is possible to construct supersymmetric three-generation models of Standard Model gauge group in the framework of non-simply-connected elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau, without section but with a bi-section. The fibrations on…
An integrable system is introduced, which is a generalization of the $\mathfrak{sl}(2)$ quantum affine Gaudin model. Among other things, the Hamiltonians are constructed and their spectrum is calculated within the ODE/IQFT approach. The…
A construction of Calabi-Yaus as quotients of products of lower-dimensional spaces in the context of weighted hypersurfaces is discussed, including desingularisation. The construction leads to Calabi-Yaus which have a fiber structure, in…
We determine the structure of the BPS algebra of 2-Calabi-Yau Abelian categories for which the stack of objects admits a good moduli space. We prove that this algebra is isomorphic to the positive part of the enveloping algebra of a…
Let \Sigma_g be a closed orientable surface let Diff_0(\Sigma_g; area) be the identity component of the group of area-preserving diffeomorphisms of \Sigma_g. In this work we present an extension of Gambaudo-Ghys construction to the case of…
We study the predictions of mirror symmetry for the 1-parameter family of Calabi-Yau 3-folds $\tilde{X}$ with hodge numbers $h^{11}=31,h^{21}=1$ constructed in \cite{BN}. We calculate the Picard-Fuchs differential equation associated to…
We extend our variant of mirror symmetry for K3 surfaces \cite{GN3} and clarify its relation with mirror symmetry for Calabi-Yau manifolds. We introduce two classes (for the models A and B) of Calabi-Yau manifolds fibrated by K3 surfaces…
