The study of the geometry of Calabi-Yau fourfolds is relevant for compactifications of string theory, M-theory, and F-theory to various dimensions. This work introduces the mathematical machinery to derive the complete moduli dependence of…
We show how to evaluate the periods in Seiberg-Witten theories and in K3-fibered Calabi-Yau manifolds by using fibrations of the theories. In the Seiberg-Witten theories, it is shown that the dual pair of fields can be constructed from the…
We study the variation of relative cohomology for a pair consisting of a smooth projective hypersurface and an algebraic subvariety in it. We construct an inhomogeneous Picard-Fuchs equation by applying a Picard-Fuchs operator to the…
We describe how to find period integrals and Picard-Fuchs differential equations for certain one-parameter families of Calabi-Yau manifolds. These families can be seen as varieties over a finite field, in which case we show in an explicit…
We prove that the GKZ $\mathscr{D}$-module $\mathcal{M}_{A}^{\beta}$ arising from Calabi--Yau fractional complete intersections in toric varieties is complete, i.e., all the solutions to $\mathcal{M}_{A}^{\beta}$ are period integrals. This…
In this article, we study mirror symmetry for pairs of singular Calabi--Yau manifolds which are double covers of toric manifolds. Their period integrals can be seen as certain `fractional' analogues of those of ordinary complete…
We construct time quasi-periodic solutions to nonlinear wave equations on the torus in arbitrary dimensions. All previously known results (in the case of zero or a multiplicative potential) seem to be limited to the circle. This generalizes…
Quasi-periodic trajectories with two or more incommensurate frequencies are ubiquitous in nonlinear dynamics, yet the classical Fourier-based time-spectral method is tied to strictly periodic responses. We introduce a torus time-spectral…
We study period integrals of CY hypersurfaces in a partial flag variety. We construct a holonomic system of differential equations which govern the period integrals. By means of representation theory, a set of generators of the system can…
We study the set of $T$-periodic solutions of a class of $T$-periodically perturbed coupled and nonautonomous differential equations on manifolds. By using degree-theoretic methods we obtain a global continuation result for the $T$-periodic…
We give a new geometrical interpretation of the local analytic solutions to a differential system, which we call a tautological system $\tau$, arising from the universal family of Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces $Y_a$ in a $G$-variety $X$ of…
We give a simple expression for the integral of the canonical holomorphic volume form in degenerating families of varieties constructed from wall structures and with central fiber a union of toric varieties. The cycles to integrate over are…
We present a method for computing the generic degree of a period map defined on a quasi-projective surface. As an application, we explicitly compute the generic degree of three period maps underlying families of Calabi-Yau 3-folds coming…
We develop some computational methods for the integrals over the 3-chains on the compact Calabi-Yau 3-folds that plays a prominent role in the analysis of the topological B-model in the context of the open mirror symmetry. We discuss such…
We investigate the structure of the set of $T$-periodic solutions to periodically perturbed coupled delay differential equations on differentiable manifolds. By using fixed point index and degree-theoretic methods we prove the existence of…
A multi-cube method is developed for solving systems of elliptic and hyperbolic partial differential equations numerically on manifolds with arbitrary spatial topologies. It is shown that any three-dimensional manifold can be represented as…
We prove the existence of time-quasi-periodic solutions of the incompressible Euler equation on the three-dimensional torus $\T^3$, with a small time-quasi-periodic external force. The solutions are perturbations of constant (Diophantine)…
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…
Combining algebro-geometric methods and factorization techniques for finite difference expressions we provide a complete and self-contained treatment of all real-valued quasi-periodic finite-gap solutions of both the Toda and Kac-van…
The number of rational points in toric data are given for two-parameter Calabi-Yau $n$-folds as toric hypersurfaces over finite fields $\mathbb F_p$ . We find that the fundamental period is equal to the number of rational points of the…
