A two-dimensional topological sigma-model on a generalized Calabi-Yau target space $X$ is defined. The model is constructed in Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism using only a generalized complex structure $J$ and a pure spinor $\rho$ on $X$. In…
We study the moduli space of four dimensional ordinary Lie algebras, and their versal deformations. Their classification is well known; our focus in this paper is on the deformations, which yield a picture of how the moduli space is…
We define the notion of mirror of a Calabi-Yau manifold with a stable bundle in the context of type II strings in terms of supersymmetric cycles on the mirror. This allows us to relate the variation of Hodge structure for cohomologies…
This is the sequel to arXiv:math/0001089. In this paper, we complete the promised description of moduli of abelian surfaces of low degree, covering the cases of degree (1,12), (1,14), (1,16), (1,18) and (1,20). In each case, we describe…
In this article we study the deformation of finite maps and show how to use this deformation theory to construct varieties with given invariants in a projective space. Among other things, we prove a criterion that determines when a finite…
We analyze the moduli spaces of Calabi-Yau threefolds and their associated conformally invariant nonlinear sigma-models and show that they are described by an unexpectedly rich geometrical structure. Specifically, the Kahler sector of the…
In this article we discuss the geometry of moduli spaces of (1) flat bundles over special Lagrangian submanifolds and (2) deformed Hermitian-Yang-Mills bundles over complex submanifolds in Calabi-Yau manifolds. These moduli spaces reflect…
We introduce an unfolded moduli space of connections, which is an algebraic relative moduli space of connections on complex smooth projective curves, whose generic fiber is a moduli space of regular singular connections and whose special…
This article continues the study of moduli spaces of special Lagrangians with boundary in a Calabi--Yau manifold. The moduli space was shown to be a smooth finite-dimensional manifold in the prequel arXiv:2503.6321918. This article…
We shall obtain unobstructed deformations of four geometric structures: Calabi-Yau, HyperK\"ahler, $\G$ and Spin(7) structures in terms of closed differential forms (calibrations). We develop a direct and unified construction of smooth…
We review the geometrical framework required for understanding the moduli space of $(2,2)$ superconformal-field theories, highlighting various aspects of its phase structure. In particular, we indicate the types of phase diagrams that…
Calabi-Yau four-folds may be constructed as hypersurfaces in weighted projective spaces of complex dimension 5 defined via weight systems of 6 weights. In this work, neural networks were implemented to learn the Calabi-Yau Hodge numbers…
Cohesive modules give a dg-enhancement of the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on a complex manifold via superconnections. In this paper we discuss the deformation theory of cohesive modules on compact complex manifolds. This…
A geometrical structure on even-dimensional manifolds is defined which generalizes the notion of a Calabi-Yau manifold and also a symplectic manifold. Such structures are of either odd or even type and can be transformed by the action of…
We describe bivector fields and Poisson structures on local Calabi-Yau threefolds which are total spaces of vector bundles on a contractible rational curve. In particular, we calculate all possible holomorphic Poisson structures on the…
The notion of a generalized Lie bialgebroid (a generalization of the notion of a Lie bialgebroid) is introduced in such a way that a Jacobi manifold has associated a canonical generalized Lie bialgebroid. As a kind of converse, we prove…
We study closures of GL_2(R)-orbits on the total space of the Hodge bundle over the moduli space of curves under the assumption that they are algebraic manifolds. We show that, in the generic stratum, such manifolds are the whole stratum,…
Multiply-connected Calabi-Yau threefolds are of particular interest for both string theorists and mathematicians. Recently it was pointed out that one of the generic degenerations of these spaces (occurring at codimension one in moduli…
We study certain differential rings over the moduli space of Calabi-Yau manifolds. In the case of an elliptic curve, we observe a close relation to the differential ring of quasi-modular forms due to Kaneko and Zagier.
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…
