Among the efficient numerical methods based on atomistic models, the quasicontinuum (QC) method has attracted growing interest in recent years. The QC method was first developed for crystalline materials with Bravais lattice and was later…

In the setting of Donaldson's conjecture on the Calabi-Yau equation on symplectic 4-manifolds, we prove an a priori estimate which in the K\"ahler case resembles a classical estimate of Cheng-Yau.

Let k be an imaginary quadratic number field (with class number 1). We describe a new, essentially linear-time algorithm, to list all isomorphism classes of cubic extensions L/k up to a bound X on the norm of the relative discriminant…

Given a non-K\"ahler Calabi-Yau orbifold with a finite family of isolated singularities endowed with a Chern-Ricci flat balanced metric, we show, via a gluing construction, that all its crepant resolutions admit Chern-Ricci flat balanced…

We introduce some new algebraic structures arising naturally in the geometry of Calabi-Yau manifolds and mirror symmetry. We give a universal construction of Calabi-Yau algebras in terms of a noncommutative symplectic DG algebra resolution.…

Given the same anti-canonical linear system on two distinct toric varieties, we provide a derived equivalence between partial crepant resolutions of the corresponding stacky hypersurfaces. The applications include: a derived unification of…

We extend the Faltings modular heights of abelian varieties to general arithmetic varieties and show direct relations with the Kahler-Einstein geometry, the Minimal Model Program, heights of Bost and Zhang, and give some applications. Along…

While Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in toric ambient spaces provide a huge number of examples, theoretical considerations as well as applications to string phenomenology often suggest a broader perspective. With even the question of finiteness…

In this note, we extend the rigidity of Cheng-Yau gradient estimate in \cite{HXY} to surfaces with lower Ricci curvature bound. Motivated by these sharp Cheng-Yau gradient estimates, pointwise Cheng-Yau gradient estimates for higher…

In this paper a recursive algorithm is presented for evaluating multivariate Pad\'e approximants (of the rectangular type described in the work of Lutterodt) which is analogous to the Jacobi formula for univariate Pad\'e approximants. This…

Mirror symmetry, a phenomenon in superstring theory, has recently been used to give tentative calculations of several numbers in algebraic geometry. In this paper, the numbers of lines and conics on various hypersurfaces which satisfy…

Motivated from mathematical aspects of the superstring theory, we introduce a new equation on a balanced, hermitian manifold, with zero first Chern class. Solving the equation, one will obtain, in each Bott--Chern cohomology class, a…

Long ago, Nemeschansky and Sen demonstrated that the Ricci-flat metric on a Calabi-Yau manifold could be corrected, order by order in perturbation theory, to produce a conformally invariant (2,2) nonlinear sigma model. Here we extend this…

By using the global deformation of almost complex structures which are compatible with a symplectic form off a Lebesgue measure zero subset, we construct a (measurable) Lipschitz Kahler metric such that the one-form type Calabi-Yau equation…

Let $B$ be a K\"ahler-Einstein Fano manifold, and $L \to B$ be a suitable root of the canonical bundle. We give a construction of complete Calabi-Yau metrics and gradient shrinking, steady, and expanding K\"ahler-Ricci solitons on the total…

We establish new results concerning projectors on max-plus spaces, as well as separating half-spaces, and derive an explicit formula for the distance in Hilbert's projective metric between a point and a half-space over the max-plus…

We construct a family of Calabi-Yau metrics on $\C^3$ with properties analogous to the Taub-NUT metric on $\C^2$, and construct a family of Calabi-Yau 3-fold metric models on the positive and negative vertices of SYZ fibrations with…

Some analysis on the Lorentzian distance in a spacetime with controlled sectional (or Ricci) curvatures is done. In particular, we focus on the study of the restriction of such distance to a spacelike hypersurface satisfying the Omori-Yau…

Recent results on duality between string theories and connectedness of their moduli spaces seem to go a long way toward establishing the uniqueness of an underlying theory. For the large class of Calabi-Yau 3-folds that can be embedded as…

We give the first numerical calculation of the spectrum of the Laplacian acting on bundle-valued forms on a Calabi-Yau three-fold. Specifically, we show how to compute the approximate eigenvalues and eigenmodes of the Dolbeault Laplacian…
